My great grandfather is from Britain. He was born from a poor family of 11 children. Of these 11 children he was one of the only two successful ones. Why? Because he read many books on investing and he tried hard. He had 3 children, and he was successful until the great depression struck.

After he died, my grandfather was struggling in his business (Lumber) so he moved to Canada. He worked in lumber for two years in canada, and because we have so much forestry here, he made tons of money. Finally, he and my grandmother left their jobs to work for the provincial government of Ontario. My dad and my uncle worked hard and my dad is upper-middle class while my uncle is high class.

Not this summer, but the next one, I am planning on getting a summer job and making $8.00 an hour. My dad said he can get me a job to run errands for the company he works for, not to mention construction is very important in Toronto. What will I do with this money? I'm going to take a trip to Europe after high school.

The glory of Capitalism! If I work hard,I get payed well and I do well.

Just thought I would share this

And BTW, 8 Dollars an hour isn't that great. I get about 20 an hour for working as a shop assistant.

He worked hard because he wanted to do well. He worked hard so he got what he deserved.

Why I like socialism: All people are treated equal, and the government has the most power. With a good government, you will be treated better.

The people of socialist countries get
•Health care
•Money (Split between the people, you can make more by doing better/more jobs)
•Shelter

(These usually are common factors of a socialist country)

Hint: There are no socialist countries in the world
Hint: Capitalist countries have achieved the highest standards of living that human history has ever seen

Ignore the haters."

You're an idiot. When the government has the most power, they can do whatever they want to their citizens. Look at North Korea. Tell me they're getting health care, money and good shelter.
