Perhaps Nouriel Roubini would like to tell me where anyone is actually practicing capitalism? Not in the USA, that is for sure.
ETA:
Capitalism = An economic and political system in which a country's trade and industry are controlled by private owners.
So is Nouriel Roubini suggesting that trade and industry is not under government control? lol? and people listen to this guy?
Yea, Marx has been proven right time and time again, huh? Yep, Laos, Cuba, North Korea, Vietnam and China are all shining examples of prosperity.....
Russia sure did a bang up job.... yep Marx gets proven right, I concede, Nouriel Roubini, save us with your immense intellect
Free Market Capitalism = A free market is a market in which there is no economic intervention and regulation by the state, except to uphold private contracts and the ownership of property.
Now this is something that might actually help a bit. Add in a dash of government, to protect 3rd parties and you have the recipe used to create the greatest amount of prosperity in the history of the world.

It is nature of capitalism to horde means of production to single hand.

I was not talking about planned economy. In fact I lived under planned economy for 13 years. It sucks. No toilet paper, no bananas.
Reuters) - Cuba, in the grip of a serious economic crisis, is running short of toilet paper and may not get sufficient supplies until the end of the year, officials with state-run companies said Friday.
Officials said they were lowering the prices of 24 basic goods to help Cubans get through the difficulties provoked in part by the global financial crisis and three destructive hurricanes that struck the island last year.
Cuba's financial reserves have been depleted by increased spending for imports and reduced export income, which has forced the communist-led government to take extraordinary measures to keep the economy afloat.

Social security has lots and lots of money. In fact, it has enough money to sustain itself without assistance for another 30 years.

I see all the Marxists have come out to support their belief in the Communist Manifesto.
