CB,

It was the cartoonish nature and the extremity of the evil that I object to.

In fact, every democratic country, as far as I can tell, has a mixed capitalist/socialist economy, which vary primarily in the proportions.

Schumpeter in 'Socialsim, Capitalism and Democracy' made a persuasive argument that Democracy cannot foster a strong Capitalism and over time every democracy becomes more Socialism. He argued that Democracy contains the seeds of it's own downfall. There is plenty of evidence of both Canada and USA to back his argument today.
