Capitalism, despite its faults creates wealth.

Socialism destroys wealth except for those in control.

The propaganda against capitalism has been highly effective. Most people have negative views of capitalism, even in free societies. Capitalism is the only economic system compatible with individual rights. Free people and free trade rise and fall together.

Most “free” economies are actually a mixture of welfare statism and capitalism. The greater the degree of capitalism, the greater the freedom.

The greater the degree of welfare statism, and the centralized power of the state, the less freedom the people have. More “sacrifice” is always required, which means there are more restrictions on how property and resources can be used.

Those “stakeholders” benefiting from the Great Reset are masters at semantic deception and altering the perceived meaning of concepts (i.e. shareholder capitalism, stakeholder capitalism, etc.). These are designed to cast negativity on the concept of capitalism.

Individual rights and capitalism are rooted in a philosophy based on reason and require an active mindset, out of which flows innovation and productivity.

All forms of collectivism are rooted in irrationality and demand a sacrificial mindset to the demands of the ruling elite, which stifles innovation and productivity.

Thanks for another great article.
