ARW AA Blog Journal Assignment 6

Wagar's third future is communism. People make small groups and live in the community, so they do not need political system. They maintain their lives on their own. I think it is not good because people cannot have identity that they are in one country and they cannot live together with people in other communities.

ARW AA Blog Journal Assignment 5

According to Wagar, the second future is democratic socialism. Democratic socialism is a social system that does not have class and emphasizes an equality in labor. However, saving human from destruction of environment and injustice is redundant, so socialism will fall down. I do not want to live in socialism. I think that income differences occur by the differences of the efforts toward working, so socialism that has an equality in income regardless of the efforts toward working is unfair.

ARW AA Blog Journal Assignment 4

According to Wagar, the first future is capitalism. Capitalism is a social system that life of people in the privileged classes or affluent people is sweet, on the other hand, life of many others is toilsome and bear. This system has problems that it creates winners and losers but winners are very few, and it mounts costs to keep the system running smoothly. However, I think capitalism is better than the other systems because we can get money as to our individual efforts to work. Capitalism encourages people to work hard.
