Is capitalism the best way?

 

The question that arises more and more is: Is capitalism the best way for us humans to organize our money flow? The arguments against it are growing every day. So why did we believe for so long that it was the best way.

I have to admit that I am one of the doubters these days. I believe that capitalism has the same error as all the others did, namely humans. Why humans you might ask? well because not every human is affected with a dose of social feelings or common sense. The proof of that, is they will to continue even if there are symptoms that indicate that the system is collapsing. This special group of human beings is capable of ignoring these signals and enrich themselves further until they endanger everybody. A simple example is the last crash, the bank crash that started roundabout 2007. Funny enough it is the same error that communism had. The meaning of the system was, that everybody was equal. We know now, from different forms of communism, that this never happened. Communism failed for other reasons i know.  
Greed and power causes blindness that is the point I am trying to make. One of the arguments from right winged politicians and large companies is that, if the country would take measurements  to equalize things like income or otherwise improve the life standards in a country, that this would become to expensive to be competitive on a global scale for that country. The bigger companies would leave that particular country and settle there where there profit would grow the best. This sounds reasonable. Why should a company not move there where it can make the most?

I think it shows the cheap thinking of the leaders in politics and business. Remember that years ago this movement started where companies should be social aware? They started all these programs to aid the groups that are in need. In the case that a government decides that the people that do need help, become a priority over economic growth and the big shoulders of those who make a lot of money, including companies, should help to finance that, their social awareness melts like snow.  We can start an argument about that this are two different things. One there is a company that creates a social program on a small scale where it has full control over how the money flows in that particular program. And on the other hand there is this much bigger program inflicted by the government and they have no control over the money flow. The interesting answer to this is, that in both cases there is social awareness. And companies should take there responsibility in this like every other person. They are also part of the society even though they are not real persons, they do use the systems that are in place and they depend on human beings for thriving their business. So instead of fleeing away like a flog of scared birds for a cat. They should take their responsibility and put their shoulder in an aid to build a more human society. Which is not possible under the laws of capitalism. Which is in my opinion   promoting barbaric behavior for the simple fact it is still a lot of muscle rolling in a suit instead of fur.
