"I don’t feel impinged upon very much by any capitalist that I know of, except maybe Bill Gates, and he is nothing more than an aggravation.

Not so the Beltway Mafiosi.

They impinge upon me in an endless number of ways. Every four months I send off monstrous checks to them --- more than to my son’s private college, more than to my wife for household expenses, more than to any single other thing. If I don’t send the money, I lose my property. If I resist, they kill me. I call that impinging. "

I am curious as to who exactly you think works for whom? You honestly believe that the rules of governement are set independently of the interests of the "capitalists"? It is useful in this regard to study the history of how many of our largest corporations gained the market control that they so often did. Weyerhauser lumber would be an easy example to look into.
