"Your list is a list of Socialism. I believe in capitlaism WITHOUT the help of government" That country disappeared the day the Constitution, which doesn't mention capitalism, was rat afied. "Think Teddy Roosevelt" Think Panama Canal and "Free medical care for everybody."

Good grief, the things that I listed were all things that the govt helped to put into place. Sure, private enterprise did some of it, but the govt did most of it in the beginning. And they set up conditions where the private sector could build on what they did. There were plenty of public-private partnerships, and they continue in many cases to this day.

>>Sam; Your list is a list of Socialism. I believe in capitlaism WITHOUT the help of government. yes we know, you prefer Ayn Rand crappola ... but most here admire Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, or FDR, etc... and Paul Krugman, in other words, common sense and morals why do you keep droning on with your libertarian right wing voodoo gobbledygook if you believe in capitalism so much you should at least be able to spell it correctly
