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.

and I'd add Communalism if not Communism. Perhaps this is the case in the Zapatista communities in Chiapas.

@marwilliamson is so on point. This is exactly the understanding that needs to enter the heart. I don’t know how, but it’s never all or nothing, black or white, my way or yours.

Well whadda ya know? You just described the USA, Marianne! My HS teacher (c.70s) taught me that America is both a capitalist AND socialist country. It worked great! Enter corrupt politicians who violated OATHS, instituted laws that took our liberties, our free markets; a media..

Bit of a word salad. Just defend Tulsi Gabbard who's fighting for what you preach. Job done 👍

All of us, including the wealthiest among us, have been missing out on our potential. A healthy and well-educated society allows for there to be more solutions, inventions, cures, artistry, and innovation. When all people have life's basic needs, our whole society benefits.

Old thinking and outdated definitions. Complaining about capitalism on your iPhone on twitter is dumb. Thinking we don’t already have many forms of socialism intertwined within our society is dumb. Basically this circle of old solutions doesn’t help us go forward. #MATH

Why is this common sense view so uncommon?
