Symptom of a Capitalistic society. I am thrilled that it appears people are spending again. That is good for the economy and we need it to improve.

Shopping at Target at 3 in the morning is not a sign of a ‘capitalistic’ society. It’s the act of extreme bargain hunting fueled by economic uncertainty. Nothing to do with capitalism (which if the government got out of the way would right itself faster than any other kind of market). They did this kind of behavior in eastern bloc countries, all but for different reasons (scarcity) but it was still anxiety and uncertainty that drove it.

Black friday is but one day snapshot..... The operative word you used is “appears”

One day does not make a season .....I think many retailers had their one big day and the rest of the year will be cautious at best

I know I am doing all my shopping on line this year.....
