Capitalism vs Socialism

READ his story as stated on Facebook below:
A guy looked at my Corvette the other day and said, "I wonder how many people could have been fed for the money that sports car cost."
I replied I am not sure;
it fed a lot of families in Bowling Green, Kentucky who built it,
it fed the people who make the tires,
it fed the people who made the components that went into it,
it fed the people in the copper mine who mined the copper for the wires,
it fed people in Decatur IL. at Caterpillar who make the trucks that haul the copper ore.
It fed the trucking people who hauled it from the plant to the dealer
and fed the people working at the dealership and their families.
BUT,… I have to admit, I guess I really don’t know how many people it fed.
That is the difference between capitalism and welfare mentality.
When you buy something, you put money in people’s pockets and give them dignity for their skills.
When you give someone something for nothing, you rob them of their dignity and self-worth.
Capitalism is freely giving your money in exchange for something of value.
Socialism is taking your money against your will and shoving something down your throat that you never asked for.

Too bad they don't teach that capitalism is a superior economic system in public schools any more.
It is a major source of the abject stupidity that the under 30 crowd that "feels" instead of "thinks".
And these pictures of before and after are brilliant truths that the "superior educators" today ignore.
One more example that when you do continuously stupid things, you get more Trump.
It is that simple. Someone should tell CNN and those that create school curriculum.

All they teach about capitalism in school is about the losers. And they preach about how everyone should be equal in everything. And without mentioning words like socialism or communism, begin the introduction to the tenets and just simply never bring up the negatives. Very much on purpose.
