This is what the Washington Post is selling.

something on the quality of Pearlstein’s writing:
https://archives.cjr.org/the_audit/the_washington_post_shorts-sel.php
“Bullsh*t, bullish*t, bullish*t. Our politics are polarized because the left is implacably and unceasingly trying to basically do away with The Constitution. “
Of course politics are going to be polarized when one group is deliberately trying to destroy the nation while another is trying to save it. That’s not hyperbole. The left has been talking about deconstructing America since the 1920s. The modern left is a wrecking ball attacking every institution in the country.
“Regulation has become steadfastly more comprehensive.”
That’s a fact. I know of sheriffs in the west who confronted BLM (Bureau of Land Management) fascist goons with county sheriff SWAT teams to make them back off.
Where are all of the Democratic Capitalism candidates?
Amazon must be nationalized for the good of the country
Capitalism produces EVERYTHING socialists/communists/democratic socialists/redistributionists wish to “redistribute.”
RATS aren't smart enough to understand the business model of a lemonade stand
The old Marxist vengeful canard that the past determines your wealth today, not your work input today...
As for shareholder value, he is wrong again, for it is when the federal reserve became anti-capitalist and invested in stocks that stock prices became more important in order to retain state power and prestige. True capitalists do not just look at stock value, as it is the dividends which are a ratio of company revenues to stock value which is more important for a “farm buyer”.
He has no clue about economics. Capitalists do not like government intervention, ideally, to intervene in the prices of goods and values of stocks as the current socialist fed reserve disaster policy is doing it.
Why should I go to the link of the Washington Compost?
National Socialism was Hitler’s gig. Now the democrats want to be NAZIs?
America has a relatively open economy, but that does not say we have the capitalism we should. The forces against Capitalism have been incrementally chipping away, knowing very well that it is the way they can destroy it. Musk's dependence on corporate welfare tied him into the forces that would destroy him. Government created dependence is the method to destroy--not help.
There is always ‘Capitalism’, the only question is who gets to control the Capital, the individual or the State?
No indeed, to them it is about righting some socially unjust past, for them The very greed that he claims drives the economy is actually the very spiteful vengeful greed that drives his political non-economic agenda.
Good point.
Bezos will say b-b-b-bbut I’m with you guys. At least leave me my pants and shoes. This is so unfair.
Yes. Thankful for the heads up.
And I hate it when we have no idea Drudge is linking us to NYT or WaPo for the headline big article. Then they say almost out of free articles. I don’t even want to go there.
Indeed, a fine example of capitalism despite itself is public schools in France. There supposedly education is a right. Wrong, school is a right, but teachers still make education a privilege over there. A teacher who does not like the kids in the classroom will neglect them. If you pay that teacher or are a friend of the family, that supposedly very poor performing teacher will be the greatest tutor you will ever have.
I was there and saw underground capitalism and rights being applied, and this despite that these teachers were socialists and voted socialist. They easily doubled their state salaries in black market instruction
Can the evidence against socialism be any more obvious?
Our side better get out in front of this because people are being hoodwinked - and they vote.
Being a socialist (essentially communist) should carry a major stigma in these United States.
President Trump; Sarah Sanders should mock it every chance they get.
