I'll get flamed for this but this is why I don't know if I 100% stand behind capitalism any more, at least not in the way it is now. Capitalism with good regulation seems to be best but I'm sure a lot of people would disagree.
I agree actually. I think the capitalism way works but too many people are taking advantage of it. This country is going to need serious reform everywhere in the next few months/ years politically, economically, socially
