I have no problem calling myself a capitalist. It’s not capitalism per se but a virulent strain of capitalism that has corrupted our govt & highjacked America’s value system. Capitalism, like any public institution, should display ethics & moral consideration for people & planet.

Have you ever read Adam Smith or John Hobbs? From your comment concerning capitalism I don't believe you have read any of the founding principles of capitalism. You need to bone up before you speak out, knowledge equals power #SpeakingTruthToIgnorance #SpeakTruthToPower

There’s a healthy mixture of humanity in a healthy capitalist economy. When the goal is only economic, the system will fail because it’s driven and sustained by humanity. #Peace #Williamson2020

No, no, no. You can call for ethics and morality and hope beyond hope, or you can re-define what is a free market commodity (health care is not) and regulate the monopolies like we did when America was great.

We call that democratic socialism. A balance of capitalism with social programs.

Either the lack of awareness or the manipulation of others of lesser awareness.

Crony capitalism has gotten out of control here in the US.

You’re getting closer to the truth. Let’s name names.
