Is Capitalism Just?

[Giant Saguaro]

Yes, it's the fairest system currently in existence. Capitalism rewards innovation and hard work, and people who are willing to be innovative and work hard should do better than everyone else. Is it without flaws? No. Are there exceptions? Sure. But overall, it is the fairest system. I am very adverse to a system in which no one gets behind but no one gets ahead either - that is what is not fair, IMO.

All sorts of interesting answers here - seems to me we're talking about capitalism as we know it and have it in this country now. A system not devoid of regulation, but generally not over-regulated as it once was either. That seems a good balance: fewer interventions and regulation than more, but some element nonetheless.
