    some people like the governments said that capitalism can create jobs but is this true especially in economic uncertainties? the answer is NO; moreover, capitalism widens the wealth gap between the rich and poor; the rich r getting more richer while poor r getting more poorer; in capitalism, the rich manipulate the poor peoples' live; so this shows capitalism is our biggest enemy; i prefer government adopt socialism structure where there is equality in society

    True Capitalism provides the most freedom of any type of government or economy.

    And with freedom comes greater responsibility, and greater opportunity both for success and failure.

    Unfortunately many people use the freedom of capitalism for bad, like to scam others, but many also use the freedom for good. The overall idea though is that if the good people outweigh the bad people, then capitalism is a resounding success.

    Source(s): America is still the richest country in the world even during its depression right now... so obviously capitalism has something going for it.

    i could really get going on this one but i will try and keep it short.

    time and time again weve seen the capitalist cycle witch consists of its "stable instability" it always rises and pit falls again and again, people dont want to admit it doesnt work, they are brainwashed by ideals and filled with fear of change and would dye for capitalism.

    capitalism does not work, we should take what works and imitate...

    Sweden is half capitalist, half socialist, the poverty and hunger rate is almost none, the rich arent as rich and people live in extremely good conditions, doctors are incredible, you get money to go to school, wireless internet free for every one everywhere, very little crime and whats more, they where one of few countries that have not suffered during the recession , and their coin maintained most of its value.

    we need change, completely different structure, capitalism does not work, lets end it now.

    ^ Quite intresting coming from an American Ideolouge. Anways, to answer the question above, there needs to be Saftey Nets installed in a economy before, the "invisable hand" is allowed to take its course. When this is the case, the shocks from capitalist downturns are minimized.
