How does it affect the Federal Reserve? If the Federal Reserve was part of the government what would it be called? The resources come from other citizens, society, and hence, socialism The Fed has no direct role with either, except that they both are parts of the federal government. It is part of the federal government Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unbillievable Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 The only thing Capitalism does is create wealth. What makes it great is that it is run by an uncaring, unbiased market; which favors the bold few. So we must use Socialism to move the newly created wealth to the underfunded needy. The problem is that we must depend on people to run it. So the solution is to turn our lives over to SkyNet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see where capitalism could be argued to be more conducive towards more wealth creation for potential ideas that can create more efficiency in an economy but is it actually responsible for the actual creation of wealth? Im not sure about tht Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
