As a wise man once said Capitalism is a terrible system but better than every other system ever created.

Nothing wrong with govt preventing capitalism to run uncontrolled but nothing better than capitalism.

We became the #1 economy thru capitalism.
The imperfections cause our guilt, or even envy for some, about the inequities. We can certainly improve democracy and capitalism. To borrow a phrase, “to form a more perfect union.”

HOWEVER, that is not a goal the thugs share with us. Many folks are being manipulated. If they believe they are helping the oppressed or less fortunate, they are in fact (sadly) supporting the thugs as they actively destroy our shared culture, history, liberties and ultimately our government.
