Zim: I keep looking for the 'right answer' . . . And the answer is somewhere in the middle. A little socialism is a wonderful thing. But the more socialist a community becomes, the worse off the Peoples become.

In the end it seems most people think the word socialist is negative and few even understand it. It seems the most that do hate it with a passion. I gather that this is the view that the upper class favors as it keeps more money in their pocket, with no need to feel guilt for hoarding so much money in a world with people starving.
Here is my argument, how does capitalism help the poor? is it working? 95% of the wealth is in the hands of 5% of Americans... some say it is 80% in the top 10%.. Americans are one group of people..., some are smart enough to hire others to work for them. They make their profits on the backs of those people, do they deserve to keep every bit of it?Should they contribute to the good of the group?
The single core difference is, do we let selfishness of the wealthy control the market or do we let govt have control which usually turns into corruption,
Additional Details
We cant trust the govt to be for the people, that is the reason we like small govt. Capitalism allows the rich to control everything and as most wealthy people are not pure and noble people, then it is a given that capitalism is not best for the people. I say let the govt have control and the people have to monitor the govt for corruption... is this true

Zim: I liked this line. >>"The single core difference is, do we let selfishness of the wealthy control the market or do we let govt have control which usually turns into corruption,"
Socialism ALWAYS turns into coruption. The same people decried as 'greedy capitalists' will take the levers of authority which enable socialism to 'redistribute the wealth' and twist them to further enrich themselves - usually at the expense of others.
Another interesting line >>"I say let the govt have control and the people have to monitor the govt for corruption... "
Once the government has the authority and control . . . how do the People correct the governmental corruption?
Make me an argument. If you can. Zim.
