tim Re..Also my point was not about the practical effects of capitalism and socialism but rather the more principle of capitalism. I hold freedom to be a higher moral principle then equality of wealth. I hold equal oportunity to be more important then equal outcomes.<<<<<<

On the surface, I would agree with your principles. But, for capitalism to survive, it needs some socialism, and vice versa. I am for capitalism, but your equal opportunity isn't necessarily a tenet of capitalism, however it should be. So, I am for capitalism with equal opportunity; as long as equal opportunity is broadly defined.
