I don't think you understand capitalism. What we have now is not Capitalism it is crony capitalism that the government has pushed down our throats with taxes and regulations that cut out competition in the free market.

Let me clarify one thing...

The Capitalistic Free Enterprise System is code for:

The Most Efficient and Effective Extraction Model Ever Seen.

Exactly. I don't know how anyone can honestly sit here and support a system where you can change the rules with your money.

YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY CORRECT!!! I will even go further and say it is a crony corporate fascism. Capitalism never did anyone any harm. Our country was founded on it and did quite well for almost 150 years. It wasn't until Woodrow Wilson enacted the Federal Reserve Act and sold us out to the counterfitters.

You can call it whatever you want but at the end of the day,......It's Coming Down!
The way this country has been run and whatever it may or may not have been founded on
is quickly coming to an end.

I would suggest if we, the people that are protesting Wall Street are pissing you off
then get off your ass and go protest US!!!

Either way it won't matter.
At the end of the day we, the 99% will win the fight.
If you are against us, one day very soon you are going to wake up and find yourself ill prepared to
adjust to the new world we've created.

She speaks for the Hi Jacked side of the Tea Party. Real Tea party members should be joining the OWS movements.

I have seen signs as the following "OBAMA IS WALLSTREET" "END THE FED" "RON PAUL" Yet on FOX I have never once seen these signs......Real Tea Party members joined because they realized the Republicans and Democrats were crooks.

A majorty of the OWS members are capitalists but FOX is determined not to let this out. If the Tea Party and OWS joined maybe we could put the real criminals in jail..... I mean come on OBAMA and Geinther is trying to Co-Opt OWS while the protesters themselves are against them. The establishment is scared.

I didn't see those signs on MSMBC either. The MSM Is only trying to paint this as a party thing instead of embracing it as an anti-corruption movement. I really hope it doesn't end up just as another arm of the goverment though.

I have no problems with a system based on the free markets, dont get me wrong i do understand what capitalism is, capitalism is a form of greatness and destruction on the poor, middle class oh sure we can say that capitalism once was great but thats the past lets worry now about the future.

So what you want for the future? Communism? That never even worked once in the past, save china but thats such a dictatorship it wouldn't even be worth it. Socialism? Thats failing too most of Europeans bankrupt.

I support a system of free trade and laws that limit the power of Government and corporations tremendously. Not for sitting back and abandoning and criminalizing the old system because it has worked, just because its been bastardizes. I'm not going to give up the last of our economy the one run by the people for the people and handing it off by too the government.

I'm for being back the old system and modernizing it. Its during these tough times that they would love for us to trade in our freedoms for security. That security however is false, only the people can truly create it.

Now you cant say that Communism is all that bad, sure Communism has its own ups and downs, the problem is that it was never qutie tired enough in countries, yugoslavia did have a different form of Socialism or Communism system which it worked no one compliant about it like the way they are complaining about the system they have now.


Since when did capitalism ever helped the poor,middle class people? i am failing to see how capitalism is helping those classes.

dont get me wrong i do support a free market just not the capitalism system.

sadly right now none are functioning the way systems were designed and meant to work for the people in other words at the moment none are prefect and why is that? because the elites will always use it and turn the systems against the people.

In some ways the Tea Party is in direct contention with the Occupy Movement.

The Tea Party was a grass-roots political party that knew what they wanted to do.
The Occupy movement is an attempt to give a voice to the people and to use that voice to tell our government what to do.

The Tea Party wanted to become the Politicians.
The Occupy movement wants our Representatives to listen to the people.

The Tea Party wanted to use the money from politics for a better cause.
The Occupy movement wants to remove money from politics (entirely).

The Tea Party encourages corporate influence in politics, but they want to limit/control it.
The Occupy movement discourages corporate greed and wants to remove their influence from politics entirely.

It doesn't matter what system you call it. The elites will still be smart and cunning. The middle class still stupid and gullible.

We do not have capitalism in this country. What they hate is not capitalism. They do not understand that. Both sides want to call it capitalism when it isn't.

Capitalism helps society through donations and relies on the good of people to help each other. Not extortion and coercion through the government. You say Communism has never been tried? It has and it quickly lead to a dictatorship.

EDIT: The free market is harder for the Elites to control, thats why they put in place government and micro economics. Imagine if the power of the economy and the wealth is controlled by the people. Not in the hands of the government.
