CAPITALISM OR COMMUNISM: THE NEVER-ENDING BATTLE

In this week´s blog post we´re analyzing capitalism and communism:

The origins of communism go way back to the prehistory, and the origins of capitalism go back to the Middle Ages. But... which one is better?

That, you have to decide, because even though most successful countries are capitalists, communism works well too.

Communism is by far one of those ideas that nobody really uses but everybody thinks of, in my opinion. Countries today such as China or Russia which are great powers in the world use it, but they know how to manage it. Other countries such as Cuba for example, not really. They let all of the power fall into the hands of a corrupt governor who does pretty much nothing to help their poor people while they bath in a pool of money.

Capitalism however, its one of the systems that has worked pretty well for everybody. While I can´t say this is the best system, is sure by far the most effective. One example is the US, which is also one of the main countries in the world, and it uses capitalism. Sure, it may be corrupt too, but, which system isn´t corrupt? The ideas of both systems focus on the wealth of everybody, however they both fail at being corrupt people out there.

In my personal opinion, capitalism works better and gives a better chance to people to make their own profit. However I do disagree with taxes. I do see it as a better system, since everyone can feel independent at having their own job, house, money, lands, etc. While in communism everything it´s from either EVERYONE or the government.

Which system is better in your opinion?
