BTW: There’s no such thing as “capitalism.”

“Capitalism” is not an “ism.” I.e., it is NOT an ideology.

So-called “capitalism” is simply a name for what happens when people are free.

Better people should be asked whether they prefer freedom or slavery.

The issue should be framed was whether one wants to make the significant decisions in ones life for oneself, or wants the state -- that is politicians who crave increasing power -- to make them. Or in terms of whether one wishes to be independent of government for ones sustenance and livelihood or dependent on government.

Does the state have any power independent of the power delegated by the people?
