Thats a good answer. Yeah.

America for example. Is not a capitalism country someone said. But instead on a fucked up system that allows Richer people to become richer with votings theough banks and tons of other things. While poor people become poorer.

And every countey has capitalism. Thats the idea of owning something. Either its the country itself or some individual.

And Communism somehow stays as an idea sadly.

Yep. That's pretty much exactly how I feel. American economics ispl pretty far from capitalism, having too few balanced regulations and allowing extremely one sided (wealthy) dominance of the market. Which is the exact opposite of a free market (one where every party in a transaction has equal and fair power in the negotiation. Free market has absolutely nothing to do with that nonsense about being free from regulations or government interference).
