Everyone knows that our current system is kind of like legalized prostitution. The corporate sector completely controls the civic sector.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Is now the time to legalize prostitution?
Capitalism is part of our system, but it's not for the faint of heart.
Our civic society is really all we have by way of nationhood.
A country is more than an economy. We're a civic society.
The trouble with capitalism as a system is that only those who have or can get capital can make it work for them, and that leaves out damn near all of us.
Let's face it: we live at a time when government is less and less powerful, less and less effective, and the agent of social change, at least for the immediate future, is the corporation.
Someday, the capitalist system will disappear in the United States, because no social class system has been eternal. One day, class societies will disappear.
What we do today has nothing to do with capitalism or socialism. It is a crony type of system that transfers money to the coffers of bureaucrats.
We impugn the private sector, we impugn main street America, and the bureaucracy cannot be held to any different standard whatsoever.
The freedoms that people have that flow from all civic institutions fundamentally come from the success of a market system.
