My last statement is that the most successful countries will have a "hybrid" or "commingling" of capitalism and socialism.
The system is capitalist. Whatever other elements exist, they do so because capitalism makes it possible for them to exist. Capitalism provides the economic basis for them to exist. There is no equality between them and capitalism.
Without public roads, elctrical systems, sewers,etc. these companies wouldn't exist where they do
Capitalism doesn't "allow" socialism. It fights things like logical regulations.
Those elements of socialism have survived that have proven to be compatible with capitalism. Consequently, socialism exists to the extent that capitalism allows it to exist.
I totally disagree. Capitalistic companies have been forced to continue to include tese things. They fight them tooth and nail.
At no point did I say either theory was better than the other. All I've done is is put forth examples which reinforce my position.
I am not aware that anyone claimed that you did. You have provided examples but none of them have successfully challenged the reality that the system is capitalist, the other elements are secondary and subordinate. If you agree with that, why don't you just say so?
He clearly doesn't agree with you on that.
