Capitalism should not regulate the government; government should regulate capitalism. Until we get the #MoneyOutOfPolitics, the undue influence of money on our political system will continue to corrupt our democracy and will - if allowed to - ultimately end it.

I had no idea the extent to which big business was buying our ele twins until this election. What Zuckerberg was up to should be criminal!

We need to move beyond that old "when money talks, people walk" mentality. This is a brand new day!

The problem with capitalism is not government regulation-it is that government uses the guise of “regulation” to enact its own cronyism. Over-regulation will always result in corruption by the regulators at the expense of the people

Then it might end it. I see no way to get money out of politics. Some have tried to no avail.

Sadly it's been trending in that direction for a long time. We seem to be edging close to the precipice these days.

Capitalists don't like that socialism has grown in popularity, while ignoring the fact that the failings of capitalism are what's making socialism seem appealing.

Absolutely correct!

Yes. Btw, totally agree with you in your interview with Ryan Knight a month back. Corruption is the problem with any government/society much more than the form it takes (Capitalism/Democracy/Socialism/Communism).
