Free Market – Buyers and sellers are free to make economic decisions. Laissez-faire – “To let alone” No nation has “pure” capitalism Mixed Market Economy – Free market is supported by government decisions Capitalism

Industrial revolution in 1700’s and 1800’s left many people in Europe in terrible poverty. Working conditions were horrible and dangerous. Socialism

1.More equal distribution of wealth and opportunity. 2.Government control of all major decisions about production. 3.Government ownership of most land, factories and major means of production. Socialism

Concept: Struggle between workers and owners. Workers want more pay. Workers do not get full compensation. Owners want more profit. This struggle will result in revolution. The goal is government ownership of all means of production. Communism

All decisions are made at the upper levels of government and handed down to managers. The government owns the land, natural resources, industry, banks, transportation, mass communication, newspapers, etc. Communism
