Abstract

The majority, if not all, of the world's problems exist because of capitalism. I did not used to believe that. I was a Republican who strongly believed in government, capitalism, and business. After an internship at the Republican National Committee, I was fearful of being close-minded for the rest of my life. I decided to explore the truth of capitalism and its global effects. This thesis is a collection of responses to anti-capitalist literature, and an opportunity for me to express why I believe capitalism is no longer the solution, but the problem.
