Back in the 19th Century, America really was a capitalist country. We had no corporate tax and no personal income tax. Shareholders got 100% of distributed corporate income. As a result of this structure, US corporations grew rapidly and helped spark the fastest economic expansion the world had ever seen. But that was then, this is now.

It's a shame that the country that was once the beacon of freedom and economic liberty no longer has the ability to recognize what capitalism actually looks like. Unless corporate owners are appropriately rewarded for their risks, US corporations will not regain their lost dominance, Americans will not regain their lost liberty, and our standard of living will continue to fall. As it stands now, the United States has become a people of the government, by the government and, most importantly, for the government.

Outstanding article.  A clear treatise on capitalism vs fascism.  So clear even a democrat or RINO can understand it.  Now, if only they could understand that the 'worker class' can participate in corporate capitalism freely by investing in any of thousands of publicly traded companies... or better yet... start their own company.  Get government out of business.
