Capitalism is the refinement of all the ills of the free market -- such as the "bottom line" being more important than people, the emphasis on using money as the basis for measuring values, and the constant need for more and more that drives the system.

Capitalism is an inhuman force that pushes millions into poverty. It is a force that leads a small group of extremely powerful men to dominate the majority. In the quest for power, the capitalist not only rapes and pillages a few small villages and towns. The capitalist rapes entire markets and nations. This creates resentment for the wealthy. Because of this, the capitalist resents the majority in return, and fears them, too. Capitalists use their resources to isolate and protect themselves from the ever-increasing amount of victims tha they leave behind; they spend more and more on body guards and security to protect themselves from both real and imagined threats.

A capitalist society is a society ruled by money. The poor, which do not have access to the capital, are bantied about by economic forces. They are unwitting stooges, devoid of free will and hope. Capitalism is a society where an extremely small group of people live in unimaginable luxury and elegance while the rest of the world wallows in environmental degradation and increasing squalor. It is a society where the rich and powerful get richer and more powerful. It is a system where the ruling elite use their insider connections to grind the rest of the world under its heels. It is a world of monopoly, insider trading, financial scams and outright theft. Capitalism is an imbalanced mechanism for distributing power where the rich get richer and the poor to get poorer. The Wealthy capitalists use the government to do their bidding, whether they are stealing property from the less powerful by having the government take it over by imminant domain, and handing it over to themselves, or using our military to overthrow a poor nation that uninvites their industries in favor of local businesses.

Capitalism leaves, in it's wake, shattered lives, iniquity, and an uncaring attitude towards people.

Terrible system where a lucky few are born into obscene wealth while the average person has to work 8 hours a day just to stay alive and those who can't find work starve to death.
We must never abandon capitalism because I deserved all 100 million of my dollars because I got lucky and was born into a rich family.

Capitalism: in 1955, administration made 30 times as much as basic employees. Now, administration makes 300 times as much as employees.

An economic and political system in which a nation's companies are controlled by the super rich rather than the people. Capitalism can be beneficial for producers to innovate in creating new products. Also, consumers can pursue higher-paying jobs to earn more cash to buy more expensive products that they desire the most. Nonetheless, some capitalist countries, such as the USA, Russia, China, Venezuela, and Japan, are being detrimental in the way that they are inflating prices or taxes of products that leads to the downsides of capitalism. Examples are the lack of a Universal Healthcare, below-average minimum wage, micro-transactions in video games, the Student Debt Crisis, increased world hunger, and imperialism in foreign countries to steal resources and to boost economic jobs. Furthermore, if you are born poor at the bottom of the hierarchy, then you are most likely to stay there, unless you get lucky by winning a slot machine at a casino or winning a lottery to get out of the poverty line. To an extreme, capitalism is enslaving workers to their graves in factories without them having enough spare time to be with their family members, but it will ultimately crumble.
As the income gap continues to widen, the rich gets richer and the poor gets poorer. In other words, more poor people will suffer and die under capitalism. Capitalism needs to be heavily replaced by democratic socialism to allow poor workers to share and to control the means of production equally, as well as stealing millions or billions of dollars from the super wealthy businessmen to distribute equally among themselves. Therefore, the 1% super wealthy businessmen will no longer be abusive to poor workers' rights and will no longer continue to sit on their lazy asses doing absolutely nothing to contribute to society.
