What is Marixsm? What is Capitalism?

[Fran11]

It's not static but a dynamic balance.

In low economic developed countries, relatively free markets (without rigt-wing exaggerations) cause more business oportunity and developement. More deveilery also, but at this stage the material conditions are so poor that is worth the trade off.

As a country becomes more developed, it can tax more, limit abuses better, sacrificing a little bit of business oportunities in order to prioritize focus on more subtle social aspects. This usually comes latter and it may be counter-producent trying to skip phases. Like @Leo Gura showed in the World Value Survay video, happiness of societies stops increasing with economic developement after a certein point, thd trade-off made before starts not being worthy anyomore and values change.

You can't just jump from capitalism to a truly egalitarian globalized economic system. It may be possible to have a democratic socialist system, but at the moment, we don't even have the material conditions to do so.

Social democracy seems to be the most logical next step as we enter stage green. Personally, I think that we will never have a purely socialist system(the same way we have never seen a purely capitalist system). I think it is more likely to have a globalized soc democratic system with the floor of poverty being raised as technology and efficiency improves. 

Marx is one of the most brilliant social philosophers in history... that said, I think it is best to take his insights with a grain of salt and to not hyper-idealize the ism attached to him.
