    Capitalism can exist with or without safeguards to protect the least powerful among us from the most powerful among us. American capitalism has safefguards. The most powerful among us are knocking down said safeguards to take advantage of the least powerful among us. They are killing American capitalism to replace it with their more dangerous version of capitalism. I.e. american capitalism isn’t dying, its being murdered.

    I’m just repeating myself now. I’m moving on from this. You have a nice day.

      Have you ever considered actually engaging with people?

        That’s not how that works tho. Safeguards can fail, they’re not foolproof. That’s like saying this railing on a balcony isn’t a safeguard to protect people from falling because that guy just came at it and knocked it down with a sledgehammer.
