What are the hallmarks of both capitalism and communism?
A. Both systems want the maximum output with the minimum investment. For this very reason it is critical to maintain economic balance in each country – balance in both agriculture and industry. Otherwise, socio-economic equilibrium will be destroyed. When there is over-industrialization (as we see everywhere today), it affects the personal, social and national health of the people. It precipitates gradual individual and collective degeneration. Further, if the industrial system depends on outside laborers, this will lead to rapid mental deterioration in the society. Also, people will face permanent scarcity of food.
