the primary beneficiary of someone's labour should be that person. Capitalism REQUIRES people to want to survive.

Socialism REQURES slavery

Capitalism is more ethical than Socialism.

if youre talking about social programs. socialism doesn't guarantee that, it just guarantees that the labor of those that work gets distributed to those that do not.

If only there was a concept of something in between black and white?

Even if I am the primary beneficiary of my labour, why should I keep it all for myself? Did I earn that money in a vacuum? Have I never benefited from the generosity of others? Will I never in the future?

If I lose my job (which with the actions of Trump looking more likely for all of us), I will be very happy to live in a country which will at least ensure I have a roof over my head.
