Very few in US opposes capitalism. I do not know a single person who claims he/she outright opposes capitalism.
I know lots of people who think that underneath the term there is nothing but a firmly established premise. If capitalism is the rule and governance of those who create industry, then I can think of no capitalist countries.

I wasn't saying US is 100% capitalist, but it is the most capitalist country on this planet. My point was to say that practically no one in US opposes all aspects capitalism.
How many of these new jobs were created by evil corporations?
Facts are utterly moot to this partisan bash-fest.
I'm merely making fun of the threads and the constant partisan blather about how the president is responsible for X when it's bad....but he is when it's good and vice versa.

But according to post #16, it is Obama's fault that housing crashed in the first place, despite the fact that it happened before he even became president. So which is it?
Oh right, nevermind. Obama is singlehandedly responsible for every bad thing that has ever happened, and should be given no credit for any improvement anywhere ever, even if the bad things didn't happen on his watch and the improvements did.
Next time I hear some whiney ass Democrat talking about how corporations are destroying the middle class I can tell them they are full of ****.
Millions of American children don't get enough food to eat. And Americas present children will not live as long as their parents because of food issues. And 20,000 American women die each year because they don't have health insurance. But you don't care about those things do you?
You spend your life defending large corporations.
Does a real man protect women and children?
Or does a real man protect large corporations?
And the stupid thing is that Americas large corporations, have moved all of their high paying manufacturing jobs to China.
Today you can't find a tv, phone, radio, dvd player, or computer that was made in America. American corporations still sell these things, but they moved their American factories to China to get cheaper labor.
The assembly of tv's and computers are high paying jobs, and the corporations that you support, moved all those American jobs to China for cheaper labor.
But you ignore the welfare of Americas women and children, and you live your life to defend these large corporations.
Republicans will not even talk about feeding Americas hungry children. They will not talk about saving the 45,000 Americans that die each year from no insurance. And they desire to cut government spending for the middle class.
Underpinning those gains, the housing market is making its way toward recovery. CoreLogic Inc. said last month that the national median single-family home price climbed 10 percent in the fourth quarter from a year earlier, the biggest gain since 2005. Single-family home prices rose in almost 88 percent of U.S. cities in that period as the recovery broadened.
Asia's hottest real estate markets - China, Hong Kong and Singapore - have recently seen a slew of cooling measures by their governments to suppress demand and curb soaring prices.
...
Last week, China imposed its toughest measures in the past year to curb speculative demand, with plans to strictly enforce an existing 20 percent capital gains tax, boost the down payment required and raise mortgage rates on second homes.

The US isn't even close to the most capitalist country in the world; in fact it's become very entitlement driven but thinks of itself as the most capitalist. Try Singapore, Hong Kong or Switzerland or a bunch of other places to see what actual capitalism looks like.
