not a legitimate role of a capitalist government.

There is no such beast.

Sorry, I should have said government in a capitalist, as opposed to socialist, society.

I'm not aware of many capitalist societies either. You certainly can't mean the USA. The kids are raised by the government, the adults are tax serfs paying mortgages on homes whose values are distorted by government sponsored enterprises, almost every conceivable aspect of life is softly dictated by the state via regulation.

Perhaps the Chinese have capitalistic "society". I've seen them forcibly remove tax collectors from their markets. Fiscal burden of government is 2X lower than the USSA, as well. I can't imagine why all our manufacturing is moving there.
