Look at it from my generation's point of view. We have to spend decades paying down school debt, something our parents didn't have to do. We'll have lower pay than our parents, and we have massive debt from this generation who refused to pay its bills.

If you followed anything I've written I'm a full fledge capitalist but I also understand why so many people are leaning towards socialism. Capitalism doesn't exist anymore. The fact that we'll spend every day of our lives paying back debt created by this generation (and we'll write the history of this generation) should tell you where we're coming from.

I also stated in another post that many of our farmers received millions of dollars in government subsidies. I even included a map showing where all the money is going. That's not capitalism.

I also say that republicans passed a multi trillion tax cut before CBO even scored it with many US CEOs wanting the tax cut before they knew its cost. I asked the simplest of questions. Who spends that much money and creates that much debt before knowing how much it costs? Is any of this capitalism?

And finally, I also said that repubicans borrow money from our Treasury, give it to their donors and then we end up funding their campaigns with government debt, debt my generation has to pay back (with interest).

It'll be very hard to move this new generation towards any sort of capitalism since it's failed so miserably under the leadership of the republican party. What I can do is blame them and not capitalism.
