happy people support capitalism

He is absolutely correct. Anti-capitalists are the most miserable people I've ever known.

They are. I know plenty of people who are not attached to having nice stuff or having a lot of money, but they are genuinely happy for the people who have it and do like it.

I remember hearing someone on TV rail against highend sports cars, Lamborghinis and Ferraris, etc. I'll never be able to afford one, and wouldn't buy one if I could. But, the fact that SOMEONE spent his money on such, means that the rest of us can appreciate and admire such a thing. In the world of electronics, the first generation of people who knew they were overpaying for $3000 LED TVs paved the way for better LED TVs for the rest of us that cost $600 or less.
