mafo- you presuming there are restaurants and things, believe me i have tried to get a job, the problem is i am restricted to a bus timetable for working hours as a bus is my only means of transport (so i cannot start till 8.20am as thats first bus that arrives in town from where i live, and the last bus leaves at 6pm so i can't work past then, unless my employers want me to sleep at work itself)also i am competing against cheaper students and the the recently unemployed who all have better references (i presume, seeing as they had jobs) and who have experience.

How far away are you from work? 

anyway, back to capitalism - seeing as how i am at the extreme end of poverty. socialism would improve my life alot, however, i am guessing i am the exception the rule and as such i am unlikely to be convinced by capitalism in anycase. One thing that is true however is that capitalism has just as many bad points as good and a world without money would be a nicer world indeed.

 

No system is perfect.  A system without money would be ideal in a perfect world.  Since Humans are flawed from birth there really is no perfect eutopia world. Money is a roundabout way of rewarding you for your usefulness within the system. 

When you realize that some people flat out are just more valuable in the grand scheme of things and that not everyone is equal you can quickly realize that a socialistic world just isn't in the cards and will never work.
