    Of course it encourages innovation, but you seem to think that innovation is exclusive to capitalism.

    nearly every country that exists, uses a capitalist socioeconomic system

    One of the big reasons is the US “spreading democracy”, among others

    no unchecked system is ever going to be

    This is the point. It’s been allowed to go so out of control that people want radical change now

    capitalism allowed to happen as a result of a free market

    Capitalism != market economy

      Cool, so we agree it’s not that capitalism is the problem- it’s that it’s been unchecked that’s the problem.

      Makes me wonder what unchecked socialism would look like. Maybe we should ask Bulgaria.

        Unchecked capitalism? How do you check it? Please explain, oh great intelligence. (Before you say regulation I need you to think).

          How do you check ANY rampant system?

          You think socialism is impervious to corruption? If so, Bulgaria would like a word with you.

            Did workers control the means of production in Bulgaria at the time you are talking about or was it state capitalism disguised as socialism? Maybe we should talk about that.

                Shut the fuck up if you can’t answer questions in a discussion forum when YOU bring up controversy. Can’t answer question, can’t handle answer. Loser

                  You asked a question- I answered. Read a fucking book. Educate yourself for fucks sake. It’s not my job. And seriously… you demand an answer and think you’re entitled to one after showing your ass like you have?

                  If it weren’t for the internet, children like you would still only just be seen and not heard. Now go brush your teeth and go to bed. It’s too late for you to be up.

                  Asshole.
