But one of the downsides of capitalism is that it makes huge gaps between rich and poor. Therefore I think it's important to combine capitalism and socialism in order to create wealth and growth for all people.

Simple question for Karl Marx, I mean Karlwig.

Which of the following incomes for members of society:
A:
Everyone makes $30,000

B:
90% of people make $29,000
10% of people make $300,000

I never said all people should earn the same. What are you trying to prove?

[/ QUOTE ]

Leave what I'm trying to prove to me. Which would you prefer? It's a simple question. Assume all other variables are the same.

But it's a stupid question. If everybody had the same work, with the same education, I think it COULD be fair that everybody earned the same (scenario A). But in real life people have different jobs, so it would probably be wrong. of course that doesn't make B right either.

so your "clear" question is very difficult to answer straight without more info.

Since you don't want to say what you're going to prove, and your question is very irrellevant to what we're debating, I really see no point in using more of my time on this.

I gave you the info you need. All situations are exactly identical in terms of jobs held, quality of life. Except how much everyone gets to take home. The doctors of society A are the same people in B.

It's a shame you won't answer, because you know you will contradict your basic beliefs, and refuse to do so. Refusing to answer keeps you from thinking about it.
