    Unlimited capitalism widens the gaps in class distinction. Both capitalism and socialistic properties are used in all first world countries in it's best interest. Both need limitations. The bane of capitalism is corruption. Unions help to limit capitalism because they set the standard for what labor is worth which digs into company profit and narrows the gaps.

    Capitalism has given successful people more money than they know what to spend it on. This causes them to buy new stuff and throw away things that the poor can use

    There are homeless shelters in capitalist countries; in communist countries they just starve.

    No, it cant. Capitalism helps those who can afford to buy that help. The homeless and poor get more help from socialism than capitalism.
