really? when and where was capitalism unregulated?Capitalism works. When it is regulated in ways that ensure that the labor and consumerism which drives it is treated with fairness.
Otherwise, it’s a bitch.

Which is why they are illegal dufus. Maybe you should try to actually post something intelligible.Monopolies are a capitalist wankfest. They spend a lot of time trying to destroy competition.
If you say it must be regulated, I thought you had an example of unregulated capitalism that did not work.You must have thought I said “unregulated”. I didn’t.

I say capitalism works better, unregulated. Sadly that has never been tried.
Not a problem, TS.Apology for the misspelled moniker. I'll remove the sticky 'l' from the keyboard, remove the hidden cracker crumbs and replace the letter with appropriate threats
Slavery had masters and slaves.
Well said!

Giant corporations control government.every time a politician comes up with a plan to encourage behavior, by offering tax breaks,
he is creating a system that can be used to avoid taxes.
the problem is the politicians desire for total control, not the people playing by the rules to win.
Capitalism has also starved millions.If communism works, why do millions starve to death?
My point is the same one I made in related previous posts.so? what is your point? you made no point. indeed, i should report you for lack of poster content.

Care to speculate on why?
Famine in India - Wikipedia.
"The first major famine that took place under British rule was the Bengal Famine of 1770.
"About a quarter to a third of the population of Bengal starved to death in about a ten-month period.
"East India Company's raising of taxes disastrously coincided with this famine[69] and exacerbated it, even if the famine was not caused by the British colonial government."
So you have no example to prove what you stated, just thought I would make that clear by asking if you had, before I stated the obvious.If you say it must be regulated, I thought you had an example of unregulated capitalism that did not work.You must have thought I said “unregulated”. I didn’t.

Why hasn’t it been tried?
If every American individual and corporation paid a similar percentage and every US citizen thereby became eligible for free health care and higher education, would you approve?Now, as a taxpaying American, I pay on the average in all taxes effectively around 40% of my earned income to the government. If the Government wants to return a small portion of that money to me, I welcome it. I love the idea of being able to keep more of my money...

You should go somewhere that doesn’t have a capitalist society. That’s what freedom is all about.
Sure it isMonopolies are not a true form of Capitalism. That's why we have laws against them. In the case of Socialism, we have government approved Monopolies.Back when we had a more true form of Capitalism there wasn't healthy competition. The big guy bought out or put the little guy out of business.
Monopolies are not anti capitalistic.
