I'd say the local business model. The forces which propel capitalism work less and less and companies get larger and larger.

It is a less economically viable model when international capital funds are able to dictate terms and policies over local communities objections.
It requires active democractic participation, which is anethma to some large scale businesses and their economists.

It's true that local economies take more time and effort, but the result -- quality products, effective market forces -- is worth it.

Its the very model that most of our democracies has been based on, but its not as economically powerful as the brute force production power of trans-national or a centrally planned economy.
It needs local cooperation backed up by government support to stand up to large scale companies.

Thought I had "freedom of speech"? But alas, there can be no freedom in a system controlled by corporate fatcats, beuracratic imperialists, and capitalist pigs.

do what you want, I but I didn't think that you would find much enjoyment in talking about which capitalist system works best since you seem to reject them all, that's all...

Have to agree with Hans on that.
Its a bit odd the Communist Party of the USA argueing over which s the best type of Capitalism?
