Why is capitalism bad?

If you think that capitalism was bad, then why was Nazi Germany's economy so robust?

• Nowadays, some people think that capitalism doesn't work. I can never understand that. They say that the Clinton's economic policies were better than Republican economic policies. Don't any of you realize that it takes years for any type of economic policy to have an effect on the economy? Just for a second forget about America. Instead, think about the economies of Nazi Germany and the USSR. The economy of Nazi Germany was extremely capitalistic and was very productive. On the other hand, the Soviet economy was very socialistic and almost dead. Those examples clearly show that capitalism results in a far more productive economy. My question is why people can't make that realization.

• Answer:

  Hey, I think you've got something there. We should immediately require every physically fit male and female between the ages of 16 and 40 to report for military conscription, turn our entire industrial output toward military hardware, declare war on Canada and Mexico, and either deport or liquidate all undesireables like gays, the insane or the mentally retarded. Upon decalring war on Mexico, all illegal aliens automatically become prisoners of war to be used as slave labor or shot as spies. Ridiculous? My excuse is that I am a lunatic. What's yours?
