Where's the first picture?

I am from the US but currently living in an EU country with taxes that are about 50% (so gets called "socialist" when it's convenient) and bread that is both cheaper and higher quality than back home. I don't see homeless people here and there weren't lines for groceries during the pandemic, whereas I know people literally wait in line for bread at homeless shelters or at supermarkets during hard times in the US. It seems pretty random and nit-picked to say one system does or doesn't result in lines. Sometimes some versions of both systems can result in lines, other times not...

No system is perfect because it's a hard world. We can try to build a country based on competition or cooperation, but both have downsides. Competition might make everyone work harder, but it might make you lose, or people could fight dirty or start with a leg up you don't have. Cooperation might make everyone more comfortable, but there could be moochers who don't do their part, and if there's not a good motivation the whole thing could sink. But it's not as if one way always works and the other never does
