Social Capitalism

Social Capitalism, shortened to SocCap also known as Rhine Capitalism and Social market economy, is an economically-centrist ideology which combines stances from both Social Democracy and  Capitalism. SocCap believes in a free market alongside economic intervention in order to ensure fair competition, with additional support for a strong welfare state. It is most commonly manifested in a privatized market economy used as an allocation mechanism, and that output can be increased through moderate economic interventionism on behalf of the state. It thinks this pairing can work and may even be complimentary, as he thinks this would decrease poverty and still allow economic freedom. His main tenets are private property, free trade, unregulated prices, accompanied with welfare measures such as pensions, health care, and unemployment benefits.
