Socialism vs. Capatalism in a nutshell.

[danielpalos]

The picture says that they are mutual dependent upon each other

Capitalism is a range of things

Socialism is a range of things

They borrow from each other and hopefully find a happy medium

You can't trust pure capitalism

People care about themselves or close family and capitalism is more about Me

They will do anything to maintain that power

Pure socialism is the same it talks about We when it takes care of the people by keeping them in line but those in power are only interested in staying in power and quickly become ME

Power corrupts

That why the framers got that portion of the constitution right

checks and balance

Socialism needs Capitalism and vis versa or they both loose

like the flow it changes place

Capitalism needs Socialism

No, Socialism needs Capitalism because without people who have money, you'll have no one to steal from to fund your programs.

Well programs are paid using tax dollars

Okay lets use a concrete example

Then if trump builds the wall and funds it by declaring a national emergency is that being a pure capitalist or pure socialist or is this an example of power that corrupts

It is carrying out his duty to protect the nation. It is neither pure capitalism nor socialism.

If its built publicly, then its socialized. Would the wall be privately funded?

Wrong. Merely using public funds to build something is NOT socialism. Socialism means that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole.

special pleading is merely appealing to ignorance of what socialism is.
