If the caption is the level of ignorance I fear for the rest. Finance Capitalism? There is no such thing. There is Capitalism. There is Corporatism aka Mercantilism aka Public- Private Partnership.

Post WWII The US has moved away from capitalism of any type. It has moved maybe 5% in the direction of Socialism and 40% in the direction of Corporatism.

Finance Capitalism... George Orwell meet Chomsky.

Only in this era of over schooling and under education could capitalism be so misunderstood. Any teenager who owns a mower and mows lawns for income is a capitalist. When I was born my parents were capitalists who owned a tiny farm as did most of our neighbors and relatives. Most of those who WERE capitalists did not ever hear the word and did not know its meaning. Now we have people who are wealthy capitalists raving about the evils of capitalism.
