Video: Prager U asks whether capitalism is moral

Is capitalism moral or greedy? If it’s based on greed and selfishness, what’s the best alternative economic system? Perhaps socialism? And if capitalism is moral, what makes it so? Walter Williams, a renowned economist at George Mason University, answers these questions and more.
In a time in which socialism (or at least “social democracy”) is the norm in Western Europe, and in which a leading presidential candidate in the United States is a proud socialist, understanding the differences between capitalism and socialism was never so important.
