Here is a video debating Capitalism and Socialism. It is funny, and very relevant!!!!! You know which side of this I am on!!! CAPITALISM! (BUT you are allowed and encouraged to always form your own opinions)

Remember, we reap what we sew in life. The fact that you are all going to school means you are all trying to make your lives better and self sufficient! That means you are not crying to the government to take care of you like in Socialism, and Communism, but you are making sacrifices now to take care of yourselves and your families in the future. That is Capitalism!!!! Earn what you want in life, starting with your educations!
