    Government getting involved and putting their thumb on the economy is as capitalist as it gets.

    South Sea Trading bubble, East India Company, Lake Eyrie Canal, trans continental railroad. Teapot Dome.

    The government has ALLWAYS had its thumb on the scale for big business interests and if you think that’s not true I have a bridge in Alaska to sell you.

    Right next to some beachfront property in Arizona.
