Theory: When everyone is selfish and concerned with personal profit, everyone will benefit.

Theory: Everyone pools their resources and labor to evenly distribute everything. –Everyone gets an EQUAL amount of everything, regardless of how hard you work or don’t work! Karl Marx = “the” communist. Marx condemned capitalism as a system that alienates the masses. –Wrote The Communist Manifesto with Engels – about class struggle, problems of capitalism  Picture Analysis: Is there a “better” economic system? Sources: Introduction to Capitalism, Communism and Socialism.
