The U.S. is a capitalistic system? Really, at the rate we are going it
won't be long before we tip into socialism. With our government running just
about everything now, banks, the car companies, healthcare, college funds,
looking to pass cap and trade, what else do we have left that the government
doesn't have their hands in? There really is not much left.
Unfortunately our government is swinging to the side of socialism, "spread the
wealth
around from the haves to the have nots." Of course that's just my opinion
to which I'm still entitled, at least for the time being.
