Two Economic SystemsCapitalism
Individual freedom is highly valued
Production of goods and services is controlled by individuals
Whether or not people can meet their needs depends on their own wealth
Competition is important to create wealth and improve society
Socialism What’s best for the group is
more important than individual freedom
Production of goods and services is in the hands of the government.
Every person should receive enough to meet their needs
Co-operation is important to help create wealth and improve society
