Probably a mix of it all. The problem with any system still lies with its run by humans and as such, is flawed.

Capitalistic approaches have problems, as do socialistic ones or any other -ism you feel like trying out. Reality sucks big time when it comes to life's unfairness and hardship. That's just Reality.

Actually, there are worse stories around the world than this one. I was being a smart ass about capitalism because of the myth of how the system will benefit you if you work hard and play by the rules. (or that's what is indoctrinated in many) Reality is, capitalism was doing exactly what it was supposed to do. It has no conscience. It doesn't care who it hurts or who gets killed. All it cares about is the bottom line. I agree with you though. That is just reality.
