The Millennials polled are in 60% in favor of Socialism. I have already posted those polls to you. That isn't really up for debate. It is a well known fact. So first you must absorb the facts.

Second, Democratic Capitalism devolves to Democratic Socialism and Democratic Socialism to Autocratic Socialism. It's like a wagon rolling down a hill. You can go fast or slow, but gravity will always do its work.

Lastly, you say that we and the world continue to expand Democratic Capitalism. Nothing could be further from the truth. The Liberals and Democrats in this country have pushed for more Socialism. Obamacare is the greatest Socialist bill passed since medicare/medicaid and Social Security. Bernie, a Democrat, was an open Socialist. Democrats have essentially adopted Socialism as their platform. In addition, the Democrats are openly using the corrupt FBI to subvert our Democratic processes. Hillary, a Democratic Nominee, subverted the Democratic process of the DNC Primaries by cheating against Bernie. The amount of corruption among the Democrats and their open disdain for the laws on the books prove that they are an enemy of Democracy, not an advocate.

Republicans talk a good game about being for free markets and Capitalism, but they are really no better. They are for Fascism and Oligarchy. So the US and our leaders right now are actively acting against Capitalism. Over time, most of Capitalism in this country will be destroyed. I don't see that tide being turned back. Trump is trying in little ways, but in other ways he's increasing the size of government, like with his giant spending bills. So we don't have a real advocate with any power in this country to stand up for Capitalism.
