I agree with you about making the case for capitalism. I just don’t expect anyone other than we political junkies to appreciate that argument.
There are some lazy conservatives out there who are still asleep even after the tea party success of 2010.
Then I don't see how the country avoids disaster. Obama's making the case for socialism every single day. Sure, he's not calling it socialism. We don't have to use the word capitalism either. But we have to make the case for less taxation, less government regulation and less entitlement programs. I think we can win that case. If we can't, then we can look forward to a poor country with a low standard of living and no power or influence in the world in the future.
