French socialist Piketty, co-author of bestseller "Capital in the Twenty-First Century" (2017), inspires the economic policies of the Democratic party, for example with his wealth tax.

See “Capitalism and Freedom” by Milton Friedman.

https://www.amazon.com/Capitalism-Freedom-Anniversary-Milton-Friedman/dp/0226264211

The definitive book on the vibrancy of the Free Market Economy and the consistently miserable failures of Socialism which needs to STAY on the asheap of history.

My complaint is that the Right and Patriots should not use the Marxist term “Capitalism” to describe what is REALLY the Free Market Economy. The Free Market CREATES wealth and capital. The market free from government interference is freedom in action.

Reminds me of Tragedy and Hope by Quigley. Started it and never finished, too intimidating. Still sitting on my bookshelf, staring at me.

Anyone ever consider the manner of Force the Democratic Socialist would apply since Millions will not comply?

Congratulations on getting through 1000 pages of overwrought, ideological, illogical quicksand.
