Socialism, is when you have two cows, and you are made to share the milk with everyone else who doesn’t have a cow.
Communism, is when you have two cows, the government takes them, and gives you the milk.
Fascism, is where you have two cows, the government takes your cows, and sells you the milk.
Nazism, is when the government takes your cows and shoots you.
Capitalism, is where you have two cows, sell one, buy a bull, and make more cows.

Capitalism is the only one compatible with individual liberty.

Yes I agree with you. That's why you'll see more innovation is capitalistic society. It rewards those who takes risk.

not necessarily, capitalism weights things in a particular direction (rights, justice, freedom) you have to be able to pay, and is far too easily exploited. You end up with what we have now, concentrated wealth, a government that no longer serves the people being corrupted by greed, and an economic system that virtually enslaves people through poverty wages, no benefits, (^ no justice, little freedom, and in the end a loss of rights). Slaves, peasents, surfs, employees, they are all the same jn a capitalistic feudalistic european model of economics. "Good" Employees work hard to make individuals successfull and wealthy, yet our fucked up culture thinks that these people dont deserve some share in the success and prosperity "OF THEIR OWN WORK" and that it should all go to the noble business owner, and if that business owner is shrewd enough he can strive to be a corporate "royal". Nope, blue chewing gum, blue chewing gum.Your just stupid enough to call that demon in a costume Uncle Sam.

BINGO! Everything's a control mechanism!
Question is, who controls who, and how many levels are there.
