There's a lot of Government control in our market.  Too much to be accurately described as a "Capitalist state."  This is true for most places, actually.  Capitalists would prefer the government to be as small as possible, or not even there.  A completely free market unhindered by things such as taxes and laws.  That is if we are going for a purist argument.  Even if we weren't going for the purist argument, though, we still contain many non-Capitalistic features. 

And that right there is the reason the US is going in the toilet because of government control and regulation but it's single handedly being done by democrats and maybe a little bit of republicans but mostly dems.

I wouldn't say so.  The Democrats and Republicans are very similar.  They are very centrist compared to many other parties that exist in other countries.  If you think about it, there aren't very many issues that the Republicans and Democrats fight over.  The reason you probably don't think about it is because of the fact that the things they don't fight about are second nature.  

edit: When I say "second nature," I mean that it would SEEM like it is.  Not that it literally is.

They don't exactly fight each other because those pesky corporations are lobbying them like puppets LOL.

The funny thing is that most of the members of Congress are already rich.  That's how they became members in the first place, sadly enough.  

Though there is some truth to what you say.  Those with money do have quite a large amount of control over the people.

LOL XD. We could have chosen Paul or Johnson but nooo instead they advocate a threat to bigbrother.
