The most evolved contemporary society has elements of both capitalism & socialism, in approportionate relationship that protects both individual freedom & care for the common good. This shouldn’t be either/or but rather both/and. It’s not a binary choice in theory or in practice.

Teach our kids about capitalism, socialism, communism, etc. And have a well-educated society rather than just people who only know one side of the story: Liberalism taught by closed minded teachers and professors. What a concept, right?

The best elements of socialism and capitalism can create a positive feedback loop. socialistic policies support a happy, healthy, well educated populous which is then capable of innovative businesses, science and forms of entrepreneurship which create wealth for social programs

It’s actually a pretty clear choice in both theory and practice.

Exactly! And taxes are used to ensure the benefits are afforded by everyone. Not just the wealthy.
