You like greed, not capitalism.
Kids who are handed their lives are far better at telling people how it "should be" (their blinded sense of reality) than how life really is.

Capitalism is what built up the United States and made our country a great place to live. Compare us to our polar opposites-- North Korea and Cuba. Would anyone rather live there? Of course not! And why?

Yes, I am greedy. Everyone is greedy. That is human nature. There is nothing wrong with it. Greed is what drives the economy and moves everything forward.

If you really feel that way, then you'd kill your parents and grandparents and take all their wealth/possessions.

P.S. I'm not the state > federal guy
I'm the fuck the capitalist government guy.
And you think Cuba or North Korea would be better than the United States?
I'm sure they have room for one more person like you.
Are Cuba and North Korea the only two non-capitalist countries you can think of?
Hmmmm, probably.
Why not try Sweden and see how your comparison works?
