    With respect to "art," Capitalism has produced Boy bands and Justin Bieber. Enough said.

    Study the difference between music produced in Communist East Germany and Capitalist West Germany during the 1960s and 1970s.

    As an exercise, it's an illuminating look at a culture split into opposing capitalist and communist systems and how the art produced under either system differed.

    I know that. Make a case for what you're intending me to discover or provide sources; don't make other people do your research for you.

    I've already done my research on this subject. I don't do other people's homework for them because experience has taught me that they usually ignore or dismiss the results if they don't like them. If you care enough, you can do it yourself. If you don't, that's fine too.

    Oh, I see; you were just pointing out that they're different. I thought you were trying to insinuate that one was better than the other in order to make a political point.

    In retrospect Backstreet Boys are good though, there's no denying it
