Andy, you are wasting your breath. Either nothing to work with or some other motivation is in control of your opponent.
As I have said before, pure capitalism is just as bad as pure socialism.
Paul Harvey said it well, “Self-government without self-control will not work.” Given the opportunity to feather their own nest most people do not have self-control and must therefore be controlled.
I found an answer to a question I have had for ages, Is man inately good or bad? The answer is in Genesis 6 or 7 and it is that man is inately BAD. God says so when He regrets the flood and promises not to do that again but then He says He should have known better than to expect man to become anything but wicked since He made man and gave him free will.
Well this issue is not pure capitalism. It is pure cronyism, the kind that pumps dirty money stolen from the public into the D.C. swamp.
