Fk’n morons! I had Commie teachers in high school and I rejected Communism; albeit, I read Ayn Rand and some Conservative books on the Soviet Union earlier.

Majority don’t know what capitalism or socialism is all about

What is interesting is that many millenials are out there creating things, be it apps for smart phones, new tech, fun stuff, but these same people don’t understand economics. They create, build, do, things I never dreamed of, but eschew Capitalism because it’s a bad word in their vocabulary. They’re living it, but say they hate it.

Capitalism was originally coined as a pejorative term.

Better IMO to focus on “free markets” and a “free economy”.

I wonder how those would poll and whether the GOP has tested various terms like this. I would think they would have.

“Dude! Where’s my paycheck?”
“Oh, we took what you would have earned and gave it to some of the folks behind you. It’s better that way.”

More of them might support “capitalism” if it was of the “market capitalism” variety and NOT the “crony capitalism” variety.

Replace the word “Capitalism” with “Free market” and suddenly they are all for it.

At this point, I’m not sure I would refer to the U.S. as a capitalist country.

Makes sense and their support of Bernie carries that out! Let’s hope Trump after 8 years can provide incentives for J O B S to be created here in the US again so we can change their minds and put dollars into their pockets again!

One caveat though is our higher education Industry! If they don’t start teaching American history and our founding again or basic economics all will stay the same in their heads. Also if they don’t start teaching skills that are marketable instead of white privilege and safe spaces then all will remain the same too.

They reject being able to take care if themselves and owning property. Sad.

Send all the little f**kers to Venezuela to try and survive under a collapsing socialist system and see if they change their minds.

The Left in this country has indoctrinated our children into thinking this great country is not great because capitalism sucks.

But what they don't seem to realize is that socialism, communism, fascism, dictators and totalitarian regimes suck even more.
