Finding Paragraph #2


What system protects its citizens more?

It is the government’s job to protect its citizens, ether from outside attack or from mordacious products. Our Constitution says to promote the "general welfare" does that not include protecting us? The United States has some regulations on corporations to protect us, but they are loosely used. Toyota is a prime example of this; they are an outside based corporation. They sold us cars with “stuck” accelerators; they only released this to the public two years after they were sold. In a communistic society some goods will not be available to the public but at least they will be safe. Our safety should come over profits. Pharmaceutical companies want the public to get sick so that we will buy more medicine Communism has strict regulations on products, since everything is owned by the government it is easily controlled. They do not have to wait months for an indictment before they can search their financial records. The corporations can not only hurt us physically, they can hurt us fiscally. Though price gauging or outsourcing, they can make us homeless or starving.  

 What system is easier taken advantage of?
 People will always exploit one another, but when it comes to the exploitation of a person making an entire country collapse, it starts getting very important. In a capitalistic society it only takes a wealthy business to exploit a person. Were as in Animal Farm it took a military take over to overwork the system. What is more common, a military take over or a wealthy business man? Communism keeps order, while Capitalism inspires greed and chaos. The working class in a communistic society would stop the exploration of them self if given the power by a strong central government. The human race is inherently evil, but we should use a system which makes it harder to do heinous acts.
