Capitalism: Even playing field
Socialism: The masses suffers while the elites prosper
It's why Socialism has never worked

Like everything it all depends on how it's implemented. Capitalism exists in many countries and is implemented differently in these countries and has different results.

Because "it hasn't been properly implemented in the US", right?
Actually socialism was fully tested both in the US during the country's inception, and in a proxy American colony in Jametown, Guyana.
And in both cases, socialism not only failed miserably but 440 people died in Jamestown, USA and 900 people died in Jonestown Guyana.
Look upon the facts if you have the balls and humility to accept what socialism realty stands for...

Socialism at Jonetown
"Jonestown was held up as a benevolent communist community, with Jones stating: "I believe we're the purest communists there are."[40] Jones' wife, Marceline, described Jonestown as "dedicated to live for socialism, total economic and racial and social equality. We are here living communally."[40] Jones wanted to construct a model community and claimed that Burnham "couldn't rave enough about us, the wonderful things we do, the project, the model of socialism".[41] Jones did not permit members to leave Jonestown without his express prior permission.[42]

You see, it's an interesting thing,
under capitalism the will of the minority is the law,
and under socialism the will of the majority is totalitarianism and dictatorship ....

I believe the phrase "If you're so smart, why aren't you rich?" was invented by idiots. Intelligence never gave birth to wealth. Wealth begets: greed, cynicism, vanity, lying, cunning, insolence, treachery, but not intelligence. Are scientists rich? And what intelligence they have...

The propagandists of capitalism say that talented people, inventors, organizers succeed because of capitalism. O.K. They do. And you know what these people immediately start doing? They start to fight with their competitors, to the point of banditry and murder. A normal phenomenon for the animal world of nature and shameful for a reasonable man. Only socialism and the construction of communist society will make people out of predators.

I have been and still am a capitalist, but the question must be asked, "If capitalism works so well, why then are there so many homeless resulting from capitalism run amok?" Why are our cities such a mess if capitalism works so well?
Part of the answer to those questions is the fact that we have capitalism run amok, crony capitalism, whatever you want to call it. Our corporations are run by "leaders" who do not know right from wrong.

Capitalism running amok causes homelessness?
Come on, really?
The point in the bigger picture argument is that actual capitalism does not exist.
