Rapid growth due to a fiercely competitive market...in theory.

Only the best products will be bought, thus businesses strive for higher quality and quantity...in theory.

Technological development will be naturally funded by the ever changing needs of the consumer...in theory.

"I don't see us debating this.
I don't think I have the solutions.
I think I know the nature of the problems."

Direct quote.

Yes, "capitalism" has "problems." Finances fluctuate up and down. I prefer this to a system with stability. More room for new people to plow in.

I've always wondered how the world would turn if money somehow lost value the longer you held onto it. Let it change hands and the hourglass is reset. Give it a lifespan of a year or so.

Inflation and there are many issues with that Sindertone (not the least that you and I can trade money back and forth forever)
