Capitalism is an economic system where private individuals or businesses own and control the means of production (like factories and land) for profit. It is also mainly driven by supply and demand.

"Because supply of rubber around the world was so low, Europeans competed for this resource.... If people hadn't demanded so much rubber, these atrocities never would have happened."

"The supply of rubber was going to increase and would lower the price of rubber.... This made King Leopold II rush to produce as much rubber as he could in as short of time as possible."

This evidence shows capitalism is to blame because if the demand for rubber wasn't so high, the Europeans would have never stepped foot in the Congo. Yet, since it did happen it led to millions of deaths.

This evidence shows capitalism is to blame because the supply and demand of rubber caused Leopold to rush into the Congo with only the intent of rubber=money.

This shows exactly what capitalism does and how it affects other people (Congolese) which can lead to many deaths

Capitalism is responsible for the deaths of around 10 million Congolese people. This is true because the only reason King Leopold II went to the Congo was to get profit from the insanely high demand of rubber. This then caused all the violence and murder.
