In one breath you promote letting the free market work, and in the next you praise the Jews and Mormons for doing well economically because of "networking".

What about those who do not "network"?

The object of capitalism is to win it all.

Wining it all is the equivalent of Israel dominating its neighbors economically and militarily for decades, and in the end they are surrounded by the enemies they have created.

I don't have the answer, and perhaps there is no perfect answer, but capitalism plays out over time, and this is where we are at.

No where did I say I favor their methodology, I do believe foremost in capitalism, pure capitalism with no government bias or interference. No where in the world does that exist, and the Leftists of America are fighting hard to try to get rid of capitalism here. We will rue the day that happens.

The object of capitalism is to win it all, is exactly right. When the market works, all boats rise according to the talents of the people. That is NOT the problem here. The government wants dependence to control the public, including their votes. They do not want a free society with meritocracy as the basis for achievement. They want servitude, feudal serfs to serve them. Capitalism rose from the feudalism of the Middle Ages along with the middle class. Socialism destroys the middle class.

Capitalism does play out, becoming crony capitalism as the government interferes and corrupts the free market and controls the creation of new companies and technologies.

That is where we are at. So now, who do you want as president, a businessman who has succeeded and favors a free market, or an ult-Left socialist who wants the government to make all decisions. Let me think.
