    Free market is a democracy. That’s awesome you support small business and if more people were doing the same thing I can guarantee that big corporations wouldn’t be a problem.

    Another really important factor are regulations. Capitalism right now is way to regulated which makes it really difficult for small businesses to exist. On the other hand big corporations are not regulated enough tho.

    We should work on existing system, try to improve it rather than change it to totally different.

    Also if you wanted to make a switch to socialism you would have to rob a lot of people from their private property

      As I read somewhere , I do not care how much money you have , I care how much money you are lobbying to buy my government. I do not want a full socialist system , I want a balance system where corporations are regulated and social, environmental and moral issues are over profit and not the other way around profit over everything. Capitalism the infinite system that always need for grow is unsustainable.

      Your conflicting points on regulation show that you don’t actually understand the problems with capitalism.

        I’ve never said it’s ideal. But for sure more effective than socialism

          Good thing I didn’t claim you said it was ideal. And socialism has been proven to be more effective at meeting people’s needs every time it was implemented.
