While in the past, if you were a member of a lower class and poor, you would have most likely stayed there forever. Thanks to capitalism, those individuals are now able to improve financial situations by creating a business, a product, etc. Capitalism also encourages competition, which means that various areas, such as technology, are always improving in an effort to be better than the other competition. This competition also allows for a lot of innovation. We are constantly being presented with new products or companies that are delving into a market that hasn't yet been explored. However, I don't feel that the future prospects of capitalism will be as beneficial for the general public as they were in the past. It is much harder for smaller companies to stay afloat.

Because we refuse, as a nation, to accept a future where super typhoons like Haiyan become a fact of life. We refuse to accept that running away from storms, evacuating our families, suffering the devastation and misery, having to count our dead, become a way of life. We simply refuse to. 2. We must stop calling events like these as natural disasters. It is not natural when people continue to struggle to eradicate poverty and pursue development and gets battered by the onslaught of a monster storm now considered as the strongest storm ever to hit land.
