Question 11 / 15:  *Does the historical record prove that socialism is a flawed economic system?
Answer: 

No, because we can never know how history would have unfolded in an alternate timeline where socialism hadn't been implemented.

(For an analogy, if someone has a headache and takes an aspirin, and then the headache gets worse, that doesn't prove that "aspirin makes your head hurt." It's probably the case that the headache would have gotten really bad had the person never taken an aspirin.)
