5. How about democracy and a planned economy?

The American "free market capitalist" model has been tried and it caused this world-wide disaster!

Does anyone really think that the human race is stuck forever with "free market capitalism" and that a new, more democratic and progressive economic system can't arise in the 21st Century?

I'm not sure what it will be called. Some leaders in Latin America are calling it "socialism for the 21st century" that won't be based on the old Soviet Union model.
