The problem isn't the capitalism, it's when it's so extreme it becomes something else, something ugly named crony capitalism. Maybe we need a new name for it now or maybe an old one would suffice, greed. Plaine ol, simple greed. Isn't there a Bible verse for that?

It should be about maintaining a level playing field between business & consumer. If one dominates the other, the nation will suffer as a whole.

This is what happens when we elect crooks.

The fuck this even mean? You have to provide value to the system to make money and the system gives you food and shelter and fleshlights and damn near anything you could ever want. There won't ever be a system where you can contribute nothing and be served everything?

Everything is discussed in terms of economics. We need people to produce goods. We need people to buy goods. That’s what it all comes down to. We’ve completely lost sight of the actual people. We act powerless as the market dips, the prices go up etc…but we designed the system!
