Saying that "Capitalism is a government program", though is not only wrong, but Marxian.

I think some are getting hung up on the phrase "government program"; I wouldn't be surprised if Will used it as a dig at liberals. I don't think he meant "hand-out", which is the goal of many social programs and perhaps what people are responding to. Providing a legal framework for capitalism is (or should be) a government program in the same way that national defense is (or should be) a government program. I don't think an idea is automatically Marxist just because it uses the phrase.

I wish I had the transcript. Taken in full context, its actually worse. They were speaknig about Enron, and Will started out by saying something about how Republicans need to worry about how it looks for big business and political connections and stuff. Made my blood boil. It was sick.

I suspect Rush will be all over this tommorrow.
