: Have you ever considered why EVERY country on earth is moving towards a capitalistic economic system? Do you think the poor were better off under communism in Russia,China,Cuba...?

Have you ever considered why EVERY country has more social unrest and widening gaps between the haves and the have-nots when a free market economy is instituted ? Since these developments the poor are worse off in Russia and China than when they were under the old system.Capitalism is not great for the majority of the world's population and if you think having the planet's population go vegetarian will cure that then you are eligible to have some welfare plan pay part of your therapist's bill. Mike Harris will smile at that.
