Why Capitalism Is Good

Capitalism is often debated, criticized, and misunderstood. Yet throughout history, it has

proven to be the most eective economic system for creating prosperity, improving living

standards, and advancing human progress. This ebook explores the fundamental reasons

why capitalism works—and why it remains the best path toward broad-based economic

prosperity for all citizens.

The historical record is clear: capitalism has transformed human civilization. For ve

hundred years before 1700, economic output per person remained virtually at. After

capitalism emerged as the dominant economic system, the trajectory changed

dramatically. Today, billions of people enjoy material comforts, healthcare, technology, and

opportunities that would have been unimaginable just generations ago. This isn't

coincidence—it's the power of capitalism at work.
