Name one thriving place that ditched capitalism. Still searching?
Funny how prosperity and free markets seem to move together. Makes you wonder if there's actually an alternative that works at scale.

Ha, well said. I've really never seen a place where you can thrive without market mechanisms; I've heard quite a few utopian fantasies, though.

That's true, capitalism does have its reasons. But why have all those "utopian experiments" failed? That's the question worth pondering.

After so many years of talking about communism, why hasn't there been a single living example yet...

Uh... North Korea? Cuba? But it doesn't seem very prosperous either, haha. It feels like the author's question is a bit extreme.

To be honest, the free market system isn't perfect either, but I really haven't seen any better alternative outperform it.

Although the capitalist system has its flaws, it seems there isn't really a better alternative.
