If you had the power, would you make any changes to the current capitalist system, and what would they be?

I think that our capitalistic society benefits the rich much more than the poor, and there is too big a wealth gap between the two. I think that large multi billion dollar corporations should pay higher taxes than poorer people and the government should then use the extra money for programs for the poor.

We should impose more taxes on the rich and prevent these rich people/companies from creating monopolies or trying to evade paying taxes in order to keep our economy stable. This could also give more opportunities for the poor or lower-class people to live a stable life.

I would try to help bridge the wealth disparity created between the rich and the poor as a result of capitalist systems.

I would reform the system into one that maintains a proper social safety net, encouraging the Nordic capitalist system. This system would additionally provide higher regulation on large corporations to protect workers, consumers, and the environment

I would create a policy similar to the Sherman anti-trust act so that the huge mega corporations are less powerful and so that the funds accumulated by them can be allocated to things that require economic backing like higher education and healthcare.

Not qualified to make changes to the system, but would want reworking to the education/school system

I think that our capitalistic society benefits the rich much more than the poor, and there is too big a wealth gap between the two.

Yes, I would decrease the economic gap between the poor and wealthy and tax the wealthy as well as corporations more to improve infrastructure and systems for the good of all people

The American capitalist system has always provided more for the wealthy than the impoverished. In order to start eliminating this bias the rich must pay more taxes than they do right now.

I don’t have any changes in mind that would be worth doing but if I had any I probably would

I would try to help bridge the wealth disparity created between the rich and the poor as a result of capitalist systems.

There is some lacking in the capitalist system, where the poor remain poor while the rich get richer. There should at least be some help for poorer people who can't afford basic needs like food, water, etc.

I would aim to change the treasury department's powers to combat rising inflation and to combat large institutions that opt to throw morals out the window.

i would not change it because it is a game you have to learn and be great at.

If i had the power,i would make any changes to the current capitalist system.

I would focus on creating a more equitable and inclusive economy, this could involve implementing policies that address income inequality, ensure fair wages, and provide adequate social safety nets for all individuals.

Outlaw communism, facism, nazism and other extremisms.

I believe that there are parts of it that don't make much sense to me but I can't think of a better system.

I would make a more mixed economy ideologically to implement beneficial policies from other economic stances to ours

Big companies are gaining too much power and influence and do not have the peoples interests in mind. Socialism puts people over profit.

I think I would change the ability to give more opportunity for people to be self-made successful.

Yes, I believe our capitalist system is built to build up the rich and allow the poor the suffer more than they already have. I think the richer you are the more taxes you should pay, why should poor people pay the same amount of tax a billionaire pays?

I wouldn't make any changes because I don't know much about capitalism.

Socialize some of the more important things such as healthcare, and put some restrictions on monopolies

Yes because I believe there is more being given to the more wealthy than the poor.

If I had the power to make any changes to the current capitalist system I would lower taxes on the poor and tax the rich more.

If I had the power I would make it so that the profit gained from capitalism is distributed fairly according to work to everyone, and not disproportionately to the elites/corporations.

capitalism is arguably the economic system that has shown to work the best, If anything we need to go back into our orignail ideas of capitalism and mercantilism

Yes, I would hold businesses more accountable for economic decisions affecting others' livelihoods.

I would provide more tax breaks for education purposes so people can be more informed and better contributors to society.

I would tax billionaires to help out lower income people. I would raise the minimum wage to $20.00 an hour. I would make healthcare free, college free and make Black history, native American history, Asian history and all American history accessible in public schools. I would limit police budgets to help out more community based programs.

Yes, corruption from every party is the issue at large. If i had the Power i would stop it, but i don't also the irs needs abolished and everyone should pay a flat tax.

I would seek to make change but only if the change is beneficial, I would look to see what I can do that would be beneficial rather than acting blindly and having to face large consequences later on due to my decisions.

Yes, although some things might not benefit everyone, it is beter for the envirnoment and it will make the world a better place.

The government may not intervene whenever they like, but rather have plausible and inspired reasons for economic intervention

I believe our current capitalist system benefits the 1% far more than anyone else. It should be overturned entirely, and rethought.

I would make a more compassionate capitalism. One that ensures that the poor are also taken care of while maintaining the freedom of markets to determine prices.

Many people would not like me but with my beliefs and me being a republican, I have dealt with democrats' a certain amount. I believe in certain things that trump was on his way to do but people got mad and impeached him and many democrats are regretting that and wanting Biden to do some of the things that Trump was on his way to do. When trump was in office we had the lowest gas prices in history, in equal to minimum wage

I believe capitalism works only in specific situations. At the moment in America, capitalism has failed the lower and middle class, while extremely benefitting the upper class.

I'd redistribute the wealth, not evenly, but not in the hands of the 1% and make it impossible for that 1% to ever happen again through policy and law, as well as hard trust busting.

In allowing each individual to act unhampered by government regulations, capitalism causes wealth to be created in the most efficient manner possible which ultimately raises the standard of living, increases the economic opportunities, and makes available an ever growing supply of products for everyone.

Yes, everything I have said in this survey. It's not the best, but it's better then communism

I would change a lot due to how the government is treating its citizens.

I would allow the markets to become more free without the excessive regulation of the government. There will still some regulation to stop corporations from exploiting people, but much less than there currently is. We need more capitalism, instead of mixing socialism into our capitalism and wondering why the 'capitalism' has suddenly failed us.

expand public services while still utilizing a market economy

I would make the background checking of people seeking to buy firearms longer

More of a bottom up system as opposed to the one controlling the many

Abolish it. Capitalism breeds greed, poverty, and many issues. Capitalism appeals to those with power and money because they have nothing to lose.

Yes I would, the current capitalist system isn't even capitalist as we bail out companies when they fail. We need more welfare and more restrictions on what companies can do.

i would make it that i will listen more of the people opinion

Our country is so invested in the economic status of the country which poses a major problem for the actual problems at hand such as climate change and social conservationism.

I think limiting the role of the president and outlining what their official job is.

I do not think I would make any changes due to there not being any major problems and because of that, I would not make any changes.

I would abolish it and start a socialist welfare state, like Europe.

Strong unions, responsible corporations and common sense government regulations.

Start caring about ppl not everything is about money

I integrate more progressive tax policies to create a more equitable financial space.

What I would change in capitalism is to change the economy by lowering the amount of taxes and I'll also lower inflammation and lower insurance policies so that any poor man can afford it.

I would abolish our capitalist society and start transitioning slowly into a socialist society, then separate into even smaller societies and let each society run itself as smaller communist states.

Capitalism is important because it has to do with money

Capitalism is good because it has to do with money and taxes

I would make it where the lives of people, animals and the environment is considered and valued more than making mone

Capitalism is an economic system based on the private ownership of the means of production and their operation for profit. Central characteristics of capitalism include capital accumulation,

Separate the definitions of true capitalism and today's modern form of corporatist, corrupt capitalism. I would absolutely uphold and strengthen pure capitalist ideals and make it a capitalism-for-everyone game.

YES, i would do better than the people who are controlling it

Financially punish businesses which outsource domestic industry and criminally charge those who hire illegal immigrants. offer tax incentives for businesses which hire citizens for previously outsourced jobs. Impose tariffs to protect domestic industry from foreign competition

Yes, I would make it more fair and logical and tax the rice more

No, I believe it is working well, although inflation is bad right now

I wouldn't want to change the capital into anything that is not supporting evidence or in my power as I feel like my one opinion doesn't matter through all opposing opinions.

I would regulate corporations and businesses as to limit their negative impacts on the economy's invisible hand

I'd make it more capitalist than it already is.

I'd make it more capitalist

I'd only change it to make it more capitalist
