Exactly...what ills us isn't Capitalism but our own failures to uphold the values of such a system. Like any guiding light we have become laissez faire to a lack of laissez faire. Would rather have others tell us what to do, force us into doing something, than take any individual initiative or responsibility over our own life.
And central planners have more than helped us out in filling the void.

When you break it down to it's most important elements, it focuses on individual liberties and freedoms. And with those, come responsibilities and accountability... a very alien set of concepts given the rise of the Nanny State and indoctrination in our centers of education and learning.

Indeed
We went from nation wide mutiny over a nickle tea tax. To bending over and letting the gubmt charge us $600 penalty tax for not buying into insurance we already couldn't afford (unless we qualify for the free ****).
buyer beware......beware of bad ideas....beware of false prophets soliciting snake oils. we can't have a system where everyone is completely devoid of any and all responsibility. the world doesn't work that way.
no matter how much we vote for it and how many bad ideas we buy into

While revisionist bootlicking ****bags would like to gloss over or outright ignore unsavory parts of history that cast their fundamental [leftist] ideology in it's true light, it actually needs to remain in the spotlight and taught why it didn't work. This dogma is responsible for nearly ~100 million murdered by the State in just one century alone. That's staggering to think about.

absent wants to talk about just taking it from others (the rich)
because they stole from the poor and don't deserve it
while forgetting about who will ultimately decide what was and wasn't stolen (not him)
and what and where everything will go. he laughs at Mexicans and nig nogs flooding our streets as his own politicians sell his heritage and nations future right out from under him in the name of multiculturalism and diversity. the ultimate con job.
which is such a laughable argument from an American standpoint.
Oy vey...dey jews!!! but not them Bolshevik peddling ones that run Finland too. Are destroying it even faster than our own ******* politicians.

Absent will have to learn that survival of the fittest even applies to his tribe. His weak willed and obviously lazy + envious family members as well.
That nobody serves their interest but themselves. That others do not and will not represent him over themselves.

Anyway, tangent aside, what most people need to take away from Capitalism is that it is without a doubt, the best economic model that ties directly into individual Rights, freedoms, and liberty. Is it perfect? Of course not, because: humans who act on their emotions (that require discipline to keep themselves under control). We certainly havent found better yet and we all know that definition of insanity is to repeat the same mistakes and expecting a different result. The hubris of that alone says plenty.
But you sure as **** wont bring prosperity to all under an alleged socialized gvt because it simply cant exist without having their own elites who just happen to control the gvt. And if you dare disagree, you might find yourself committing suicide with a bullet or two in the back of your head.
That's indisputable and history is all the evidence anyone needs. :)

Free will.....Free volition.....as much as we can possibly get outside of the obvious rules of nature (which are our own individual problem to deal with)
