In class on Friday as a class played a big game of rock paper scissor. We had all started out with three pieces of candy except for two people who both had ten pieces of candy. If you won the game with someone they would give you a piece of candy but if you had lost you would have to give them a piece of candy. This was fun for me because I ended up getting lucky and getting a lot of candy. This game was fun for me because I won plenty of times and had a pile of candy but I can see people who kept losing would get frustrated easily.
Karl Marx and Adam Smith both had different views on trying to help the poor. Karl Marx had his way of communism where everybody had the same amount of money as everybody else. Everybody was equal and nobody had more than anyone else. Adam Smiths theory was Capitalism where everybody had their opportunity to compete the government uses the invisible hand and lets society fall into place on its own.
I think capitalism works better because when you are given a chance to compete and earn what you work for those are the people that deserve their money not the people that do not work to earn what they want. There is also modified capitalism which is basically capitalism with rules and borderlines to how you can run a business or earn your money. This is definitely the best solution.
