 This week on The New York Times The Argument, podcast, 2020 presidential hopeful Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) said American capitalism is perverted. 
Booker said, The head of AEI, a guy named Brooks, talks about this fetishization of capitalism as an end unto itself and forgetting that it is a theory to get us to the higher ideal of more shared growth, better distribution of opportunity and resources. And we have so perverted the ideal of capitalism that now we tolerate policies that are allowing a new era of monopolization, of oligarchies.

    Those two in the picture are without question the biggest pains in the ass in existence.
 
To: E. Pluribus Unum
    For the sake of argument, let’s say that what he says is true. Does anyone seriously believe this birdbrain is the one to do something about it?
 
To: E. Pluribus Unum
    I guess Booker would know perverted, as a homo.

    Hopefully these turkeys all hit the proverbial mall parking lot like wet sacks of cement rather than get organized and launch a counter attack.
