Discuss the benefits and problems of capitalism and s
Zigmanuir [339]

Capitalism is an economic system in which investments in an ownership of the means of production, distribution, and exchange of wealth is made and maintained chiefly by private  individuals or corporations specially as contrasted to cooperatively state-owned means of wealth. Socialism is a theory or system of social organization that advocates the vesting of the ownership and control of the means of production and distribution, of capital, land, etc., in the community as a whole.

<h2>Why do people say that capitalism works better than socialism?</h2>

Capitalism and socialism have both been put to the test. Socialism never works; capitalism occasionally does. The outcomes are self-evident.

  • China. After the cultural revolution, the communist party seized power in China. They didn't have much financial success with anything. In its place, starvation claimed the lives of millions. Capitalist policies were put into place when Moa Zedong left office, and economic development suddenly skyrocketed.
  • US versus USSR The huge ideological conflict between capitalism and socialism was eventually the cause of the cold war. The sides began on land that was largely level. There is no doubt who won. The USA is currently the world's most powerful country by a wide margin. There is no longer a Soviet Union.
  • Almost all affluent countries, including the UK, Germany, Australia, Japan, Canada, and even the Nordic countries, have capitalist systems. All have different amounts of social expenditure, but this is only sustained by the underlying capitalism.
  • Cuba. Cubans are all equal, yet they are all equally impoverished. Nearly everyone in Cuba has it better than even those who are regarded as impoverished in prosperous countries like the USA.
  • Venezuela. elected a communist administration. They are currently in financial ruin. It would be difficult to locate a socialist administration that has made any effort to better the lives of its citizens. Although I would think there are none at all, perhaps I haven't looked closely enough.

In conclusion, a basic misunderstanding of human nature is the basis of socialism. When everyone actually ends up doing is trying to piggyback off of everyone else's hard work, it makes the false assumption that everyone is willing to labor selflessly for the benefit of the group. Although it is not a flawless system, capitalism at least provides a reward for effort. And when it comes down to it, hard effort is what improves our lives.

<h2>What are the pros and cons of socialism and capitalism?</h2>

Capitalism:

Pros ⇒ It is a method of voluntary trade. It is the best at allocating scarce resources. It has given people the highest quality of life in human history. Property rights, arbitrary assessments, and free will are all protected. It best manages self-interest. It rewards people who make the world a better place by making them rich. Static economic classes are eliminated by capitalism's dynamic character. Of course, there is more.

Cons ⇒ There isn't a spokesperson for free market capitalism. Market manipulation, monopolies, oligopolies, cronyism, fascism, inflation, central banking, fractional reserve banking, and any other financial news-related scheme are all confused with it.

Socialism:

Pro ⇒ Fair distribution of total generated wealth

Cons ⇒ It is oppressive. The loss of private property in the means of production prevents accurate economic calculations. Rare resources are squandered since there aren't genuine prices (actual prices reflect consumer values) (mountains of Soviet concrete). It does not satisfy the insatiable human drive for more (demand). denies possessing oneself. It establishes two static classes, one for workers and the other for politicians. Marx demanded that "undesirables" be removed from society (Irish, Scottish and non-whites).

1. What foreign<br> territories bordered the<br> Louisiana Purchase?
Sergio [31]

Answer:

The Louisiana Purchase (French: Vente de la Louisiane, lit. 'Sale of Louisiana') was the acquisition of the territory of Louisiana by the United States from Napoleonic France in 1803. In return for fifteen million dollars, or approximately eighteen dollars per square mile, the United States nominally acquired a total of 828,000 sq mi (2,140,000 km ; 530,000,000 acres). However, France only controlled a small fraction of this area, most of it inhabited by Native Americans; for the majority of the area, what the United States bought was the "preemptive" right to obtain "Indian" lands by treaty or by conquest, to the exclusion of other colonial powers. The total cost of all subsequent treaties and financial settlements over the land has been estimated to be around 2.6 billion dollars. The Kingdom of France had controlled the Louisiana territory from 1699 until it was ceded to Spain in 1762. In 1800, Napoleon, the First Consul of the French Republic, regained ownership of Louisiana as part of a broader project to re-establish a French colonial empire in North America. However, France's failure to put down a revolt in Saint-Domingue, coupled with the prospect of renewed warfare with the United Kingdom, prompted Napoleon to consider selling Louisiana to the United States. Acquisition of Louisiana was a long-term goal of President Thomas Jefferson, who was especially eager to gain control of the crucial Mississippi River port of New Orleans. Jefferson tasked James Monroe and Robert R. Livingston with purchasing New Orleans. Negotiating with French Treasury Minister François Barbé-Marbois (who was acting on behalf of Napoleon)
