Revision as of 18:23, 15 March 2007
Let's try to avoid reverting each other's versions back and forth, hmm? I'd like to know what other NSwikipedians think. These are the two current versions:
The original version:
- Capitalism is a socio-economic system or theory which emphasises private ownership of the means of production, unfettered freedom to pursue profit and the acquisition of wealth, and a free market economy.
or the version it's been replaced by (current version):
- Capitalism is a socio-economic system or theory which emphasises the freedom of individuals to do as they please provided they are not directly harming other individuls. Capitalism recognises life, liberty and property as natural rights of all humans.
