Anybody that thinks American is or has ever been a capitalist society is an idiot. We have some slices of capitalism, but are not a capitalist society or economy. We have always been an oligarchy and are about to become a corporate oligarchy. Hell the freaking intel agencies funded about 55 million dollars of Googles start up $$$$. I mean who seriously thinks all these founders of the top 100 companies were outstanding minds that built it through capitalism. C’mon.
