At least the peasants are free to fix what they please. Americans have just been too complacent.

Under capitalism, people are worth the sweat on their brow, unlike communism where all wealth is divided equally, except for those at the top.

But it's not a dichotomy. Right now we live in a system of capitalized gains, socialist costs. (Bank bailouts, welfare, crony contracts, etc) May as well socialize the profits since we're already paying the costs.

They create the problems by introducing socialism, and then they point at the entire edifice and shout "see! see CAPITALISM doesn't work!"
