Capitalism is kind of like a Monopoly game. Those who are lucky or those who are more capable or especially those that are both tend to win it all while others just get by or struggle. It is not a popular concept in this day in age but the reality is but some people have more capability than others. Some people have more greed than others. And likewise some are more generous and giving than others. I guess diversity is what makes the world go round.
So am I in favor of communism or socialism or some other form of living/government???? Absolutely not. For all of its flaws capitalism is still far better than any other ism. History has shown that over and over. It is just up to us to make it as good as we can in an imperfect world with imperfect people.
Unfortunately anti-trust laws are both needed and more importantly need to be enforced when control by the too few and/or greedy gets out of hand.
