It has to be a happy medium. We know socialism is prone to corruption by government, and capitalism is prone to corruption by big business leaders.

I think it's obvious the best option we have is government providing reasonable regulation on a relatively free market for most industries. I know Healthcare and Auto Insurance all work fantastically under government rule, and that something like arts and food work fantastically under private rule. It really just depends on the nature of an industry, and it's importance to the average joe.

I think business should be kept on a leash, but that individuals should have complete and total civil rights. I should be able to say whatever I want, and do what I want to my body, without exception. A business isn't a person and doesn't need rights like these.

Unrelated: Something I've never bought into is that taxing the wealthy demotivates people to make money. I simply don't think that people in the top tax brackets taking home 2-5% less (with the lower brackets taking 5-10% more) would send society into a downward spiral. I just don't believe that.
