Long Live Pure Capitalism- rant!

[vlad321]

Americanism is to Capitalism as Communism is to Socialism. That is, the system that is in the US today, or the "ideal" one will NOT produce the best fo cheapest. Why? Because companies spend millions on how to lie to the population, and it is very often the case that the best and cheapest is NOT the one that makes money. In other words, the system you propose is extremely broken and doesn't work. The same problem Socialism has, human nature, is also the very same one that Capitalism has. Then you end up with Communism and Americanism which are pretty broken.

Furthermore, the sole reason why the US did not meet an end like the Soviet Union is pretty clear. When the US foudn itself in the shitter, it just runs up the credit card bill. Did you know that between Ford and Obama, Republicans are the only ones that increased the national debt while Democrats reduced it? One of the biggest offenders being Reagan. He increased the debt tremedously, which is funny because I'm sure that is what had the nice effect of removing stagflation, none of his other bullshit. If you trey to point to the US' success as proof of how Capitalism works, I hate to break it to you, but if you give more than $13 trillion to any nation, they too would be very much at the top.
