captalism does not gurantee freedom. neither does it gurantee equality.

go to ethiopia as a tourist. go to a 5 star hotel and sip champagne and look at what capatlism buys you. then take a 50 mile drive down the road and see what else it buys you. it buys you 11 million dead from poverty alone. freedom in death.

we do not have the same oppurtunities. in america i would not be able to get where i am today. my parents could not afford glasgow university if it was not paid for for me. it would be too expensive. but i am given this oppurtunity. which could actually shape my life, my conditions, career. and this depended purely on my grades. not on what my parents could afford.

what equality really counts for is education. what education you receive is not based on merits at all. it is based upon your parents merits. so some people will never get a good chance in life, their options and future may well be over before they have had the chance proof themself.

do not bind a man to his income or his family's income, free him from it and give him room to succede.

that in my mind is freedom and equality.

communism and capatalism can met. it's called socialism.
