I guess I differ from you in that first, although certainly Trump is a
Capitalist, there are humane wealthy people. You can't sum him up by just
saying he's a Capitalist. He's a Narcissist. He has other mental and emotional
limitations which make it impossible for him to function effectively as a
national leader. Ssecond: We could manage in a system of regulated capitalism
so long as our democratic institutions remained intact. That would certainly be
better than an autocratic socialist state.

Bonnie, you can sum him up in one word. Capitalist.
I wonder what it will take to get people to understand that the bottom line of
the Capitalist is Profit and more Profit, while the bottom line for our
survival is People.
Obama made the mistake of thinking that he could compromise with Corporate
Capitalism. Of course he leaned that way, himself. But the fact is that two
such diverse positions cannot compromise. The Capitalist has only Profit as a
bottom line. Less Profit is not in the language of a Capitalist. More and
bigger and more. This leaves no room for People. People are a resource for
the Capitalist. And when People are not being used as a resource, they are
being played as consumers. We are never seen by the rich as Citizens. They
are the Citizens. We are placed on Earth to serve their needs. And I wish
some of my friends could get it through their heads that these Elite folk
really believe that they are where they are because they come from superior
breeding. The truth is that they are just as phony as the System they embrace.
