President Trump is a Capitalist, honestly and without apology he ties America and Capitalism as essentially the same thing.The man said; ''America will never be Socialist'', and he means that comment with every fiber of his being.
I, too, am a capitalist but, not a predatory capitalist.
It is almost laughable how the Greedy Old Party and it's money worshipers define capitalism as anything, absolutely anything, that adds to the wealth of the plutocracy. It's ok for 1% of the population to own 90% of the wealth. If billionaires and/or corporations spend untold millions of dollars to purchase (elect
) politicians who then pass legislation to stack the economic deck in their favor …. that's just "free speech". Anything that is done to assist the poor and disadvantaged it "socialism" at best and communism at worst.
I zeroed in on Wilber, (nicknamed "The King Of Bankruptcy"), mostly because he posses the proverbial face that would stop the clock and because he and Comrade Donald are masters of the art of bankruptcy where they leave others holding the bag while they disappear into a flurry of lawyers to rob and steal another day. This they call "capitalism" while leaving out the word "predatory". Want to give a bowel of soup to a homeless person sleeping in an alley …… you are a stinking Commie.
Sorry, I got going. This is issue #1 for me.
