This video was very hard to understand. Their voices sounded like robots and the music in the background was very distracting. Although this video wasn't my favorite, I liked the way they compared capitalism and communism, and gave the positives and negatives to each.

The problems with capitalism the way Marx sees it is that a lot of people would be working for one guy. The guy who everyone works for gets to control the wages of the workers. He doesn't give them the profit or even a good amount of money. When the workers want to get a better job or start their new company they couldn't.

If the 2 figures weren't as robotic and there was no background musin, I would for sure watch this video the night before a test as a review on capitalism and communism. It gives a great, brief explanation on both economic systems including the pros and cons which would be very helpful. I like how they presented it with 2 opposing people representing each system and taking turns to speak of them.

this video really got me thinking which economic system is better. pros of capitalism are if you are a hard and successful worker you can become very wealthy but there is a tremendous gap between the rich and the poor. on the other hand communism believe in a group ownership and equally distributes everything out so everyone has a job, but if you are a successful worker you receive no reward and a lazy worker receives no punishment.

I thought this video was very funny idea. However, I thought it was very interesting to see how communism and capitalism can be both good and bad. I think the best economy would be the one where people make a lot of money, there is individuality, and there is no poverty. But the problem is that it doesn't exist. So I have no solution.

This was a great video, although it was a little boring. But it was a great review on capatilism vs. communism. I learnt that there is a very big gap between the rich and the poor in a Capitalist economy, something I didnt know before. Also, this really helped me understand a lot more about socialism are really showed me all the pros and cons to both. It was a great review.

It was a very nice video, full of a lot of information and facts about both Capitalism and Communism. It also discusses the pros and cons of each. But, it was VERY boring, the music made me want to fall asleep, there mouths weren't moving when they were talking and the background was just black. They really could have done it much better. I liked the concept, but I just feel like the people that made this video could have projected that concept so much better

The video itself was OK, the characters were funny, and it was a little hard to understand... But what I think the video was saying is that both Capitalism and Communism have their pros and cons. In my opinion, Capitalism is a better choice because everyone works for themselves. Even though the idea of communism is good (everyone works together), it can still lead to problems like it did in past history.

If the voices were easy to understand, I would of probably dozed off. I learned a lot about capitalism and communism. I liked how they stated the pros and cons.

This video definitely helped me clarify the difference between capitalism and communism. However, the video would've been better without the music.

Unfortunately, it's probably not very realistic.

although it was a boring video i learnt a lot. It was perfect how they compared each capitalism to communism which made it simple for me to understand. I learnt the negative and positives of each. Capitilism is an economic system that believes in individual ownership and variety, and there is no safety guarenteed. Communism is an economic system that believes in group ownership and a united economy, and there is security because everyone has a job.

The second time i watched this video (To understand what they are saying better) I noticed that the information is well said and easy to understand but the overall video could be better

This video is very informative. It shows that Capitalism and Communism are complete opposite forms of economies. They both have their problems, and benefits. Communism ensures that everyone makes the same amount of money, but if the group is not making money then no one is making money. Communism is also very boring, it doesn't matter who works harder everyone gets the same amount, and that is extremely unfair for people who are doing their part. While Capitalism would fix these problems, their can be monopolies that make most of the money and people who have no money at all, and they can make the working classes lives very hard because they control their wages and they can pay them as low as they need to live. They need to find an economy that is a compromise, then everyone would be happy.

The video explained the pros and cons of communism and capitalism. Today in the US we are capitalists and that is why we have advancing technology and amazing breakthroughs. In countries like China there is not as much of a push to work and strive to be better. This is because in a communist country, where, everybody gets the same share of money, why would someone work harder than another? But in America, where you get what you earn, people must work hard to be successful.

The voices in the video were a little hard to understand, but the second time I saw it I understood the whole thing. Capitalism and Communism are like two puzzle pieces. Capitalism was only good for successful yet didn't have protection, Communism on the other hand had protection and was equally good for successful and unsuccessful.Appart they caused murder and riots but if were to be put together it would be a perfect government. Overall good video but it would be better if the voices were real.

The thing i loved most about this video was that they were comparing communism and capitalism. It was a great brief 3 min video that taught me so much about it in so little time. Although i didnt like that it was robotic it was a little weird and made me a bit uninterested. Besides the robotic talking i loved it and thought it was great.

This video helped me understand capatilism vs. communism. I understood that there is a huge difference between the rich and the poor in a Capitalist economy, much better than I did before. I loved how the video was short and mentioned all the important information.

this video gave a very nice summary of what we learned in class on communism and capitalism. it stated the pros and cons for each economic idea and gave example of each idea being used in a country. it felt good to know that what we learn about is actually being used!

One aspect of Capitalism is private property because one person will get a capitols and force people to work for him for low pay and they have no say in anything he controls them so Karl Marx thought it wasnt fair hes controlling people in this way

Marxs problem with capitalism was that there is no guarantee that one will become rich and successful, which may lead to people becoming poor and have bad lives. There is also no healthcare and safety and a big gap between the rich and poor. His solution is communism, which is everyone's property and labor being distributed and shared within their community. This way, everyone can have a promise of security, jobs, house, and healthcare.

On the first video (the extra credit one) it gave a nice comparison of capitalism and communism. Each have their pros and cons. Under capitalism, there is individual ownership and individual benefits which lead to a big gap between rich and poor so capitalism is only good for the successful people, and if you're unsuccessful there are many problems. Und communism, there is group ownership and everything is equally distributed to there is security for EVERYONE that basic needs will be met. But there is no reward for a better worker and no punishment for a bad one which means there is no motivation, and there is no luxury- everyone only has what is absolutely needed and no more.

The difference between capitalism and communism is very big. Karl Marx idea of capitalism will lead to worse living conditions, So, Karl Marx created something called Communism where everyone shared everything together,but the negative side of that, was there was no choice because everyone had to do the same thing.

the problem with capitalism is that if you have capital you can get people to work for you for minimum pay. so if you own most of the land in an area you would be able to make everyone work for because you own the land. people who had capital ended up with more capital while people without any capital still wont have capital and they wouldn't be able to start there own businesses. the solution to this was redistribution of wealth. if the government got involved they would be able to give everyone an equal amount of money.

There were many problems with capitalism. High concentration of wealth, and the land is handed over to the offspring (inherited). They wealthy people also keep laborers on basic wage. Karl Marx came up with the idea of communism. There will be a larger government, redistribution, classless society/stateless society.

capitalism was basically you have your money you earned and you can spend it how you like to and do what ever you want with it. Karl Marx didn't think that was smart so he said one day lets start up communism. communism helped a lot because everyone would share what ever they had. they would also share land which was very smart. one of the greatest ideas i heard in the past 3 years 5 months and 17 days! i really enjoy these videos they help a lot to understand points.

In captialism there were many problems. There is so much going on with the upper class which is the wealthy people. The land is given to the children. They got such low wages and the working class supported the upper class . Karl Marx didn't like this idea of unfairness between the working and upper classes. So he came up with the idea of communism. (At the end the working class will have dictatorship)

In the late 1800's, There were many problems in Capitalism seen by Karl Marx. One problem is that the wealthier class owned most of the property and it was always passed on to their family. Another problem is that the poor laborers would always earn small wages and still would have to work for the wealthy owner of the capital. Because of these problems, Karl Marx came up with a philosophy of communism. This solution was a classless society in which everyone was equally wealthy.

He also believed that its a problem how the wealthy owners are making so much money while the laborers were making nothing barely to survive. His solution was communism. Communism is leading to a society in which all property is publicly owned and each person works and is paid according to their abilities.

This video made it clear to me that he Believed that if people had enough time and food the population would grow until it couldn't support itself anymore. Some people felt that he was so pesmistic and wrong due to the fact that at that time they had a lot of food. I also learnt that Bangladesh has a high population.

capitalism allowed people to take over a lot of land then have people who didn't have a lot of land to work on the capitalists land. the owner would then pay the laborers low wages because there was a lot of different people who wanted the job. the owner of the land ends up with more capital/ leverage and the laborers can't get better wages. his solution was to make a utopian society- which is what marxist capitalism is. everyone is equal, stateless, classless society.

Marx believed that problems evolved from capilatliism. The rich had most of the wealth and owned most of the land. So he advised that communism would help equal out the wealth so that the poor wont get poorer. If everybody worked their own land then there would be no income gap. People would work harder if they knew what they worked for is benefiting them
