That is more directed toward China and Russia. There is NOTHING wrong with Sweden and Finland, which are mostly capitalist anyway. They rank in the top ten among countries in infant mortality and other measures of quality of life. Look it up! The US ranks around 30th. The US WAS in the top 10 around 1950. But, by 1975 the US middle class started to lose ground, mostly due to OVERLY greedy capitalists.......can we say Jack Welsh ? Or today's greedy CEOs ?
