so we are all in agreement that big money cartels, connections between power abd money, fiat currency, are all huge problems leasing to our destruction. One person seems to beliege this only happens under capitalism. hmm

in soviet union, party members had their own, superior stores and cacation houses
in china they have express lanes (congressional license plates)
in cambodia only party members could have cars
in the old days only the king could wear purple

when you account for human nature, every system is corruptable. the one thing that capitalism has been able to do, that no other system has done, is increase everyones standard of living exponentially.

the poor in america dont starve, they get diabetes
the poor have smartphones, tvs, air conditioning, clean water, hot water, cars, many own a house. on a global scale, no one in the us is poor.

that is capitalisms claim to fame. the socialism many here seem to favor will not work for the us. Who will subsidize our defence the way we have protected europe and the western hemisphere? china?
