That;s why millenials are drawn to socialism. Observation of the failure of capitalism. Capilatism for art, capitalism for big screen tvs..sure. Capitalism for food has already failed, completely. Look at our farm subsidies. There are malnourished people in the richest and most productive piece of real state on the panet. That;s failure. Abject failure. We ameliorate it with half step socialist stopgaps...but we just can;t bring ourselves to admit the problem we have and do what we need to do to solve it. Yet another failure of capitalist ideology. For a framework that deifies competition..it sure as hell can;t stand any. It perceives ideological competition as a rejection of it;s validity, lol.
I see your point but I would say that in the US it worked well but when I look at my country I'm seeing captalism crippled by corruption and nepotism and the only thing that seems to keep it alive are the people who left the country and migrated to W Europe to work and are sending money to their families in the country. That is why I concentrate more on the people, no matter how good or flexible a system is, people through their behavior can ruin it.
