Capitalism does indeed work IMO.Something new. We have tried "communism" and it didn't work. We tried capitalism and we see that it doesn't work. (Some see it, others bury their heads in the sand because they fear new things.)
And as long as we haven't found something better, regulate the hell out of capitalism, especially the corrupting influences.
Alternatives, eg, socialism, have been dismal,
eg, N Korea.
Which socialist country would you prefer to
live in over USA, Canuckistan, Denmark,
N Zealand, etc?
