Current leadership anti-capitalism? This is the U.S. leadership your talking about??
The U.S. has never had an anti-capitalism leadership and I find it impossible to believe they ever will. Take a look at yourself and more then a few too many like you dheady, citizens in the U.S. abound with so much fervent over the top capitalism that it would be an impossibility to get elected to town dog catcher in the U.S. if the populace thought you were anti-capitalism.
I see one guy here said "It would be nice to have a healthy manufacturing sector in this country and worry about health care services later." WHAT!?!?
Wow!! Now thats capitalism! I guess theres one guy who is out of work and dosnt have anyone dieing of an illness in his family. Can you imagine the level of selfish heartlessness saying "screw the ill and the injured, I feel fine and my brother needs a job!" Now thats capitalism!! Hip hip hooray!
Yes, sure, just what the U.S. needs is even more capitalism of that ilk. I just don't get the fervent capitalism freakazoids. Its like they think no matter what a country's ills are just pour on a little more capitalism and it will clear right up!
What the U.S. could use is a little more balance in its approach and as we all know, true balance gets you the most with losing the least. Also quite hard to achieve, agreed.
But these over the top claims of anti-capitalism leadership is such extreme nonsense. How many countries in the world are more capitalistic then the U.S.? I suggest Zero. Its as if there are some people out there who have failed miserably to realize that too much of anything means "TOO MUCH", meaning creates a problem. And sorry to say that applies to too much capitalism as well.
Solving problems in the U.S. is not going happen by way of just pouring on more capitalism. There is enough capitalism in the U.S. to spread around a few countries and still have some left over. Too much capitalism in fact is a root cause of the recent recession so lets keep our heads clear and do our best to think a little straighter. When your house is on fire burning up your worldly possessions, if you want to rescue the situation the solution isnt to add more fire.
Wake up.
