Description: This video is a major departure from the usual content on my channel, but I think it's necessary. This particular moment in American and world history demands that we all take an honest look at the trajectory of the United States of America. The current system is untenable and the Coronavirus pandemic has laid bare how truly ill-prepared the country is to protect its citizens. When corporations and the ultra-wealthy are the primary concern of those in power, the majority will suffer. This video is my attempt to contribute some small amount to the national conversation about what America is, and what it needs to become.

There's no such thing as "a little bit pregnant" and there's no such thing as "a little bit of capitalism".
It's either capitalism (apolitical natural default setting of a human) or it's socialism (aka statism).
Grant it, you can be a capitalist and still live under socialism thereby forced to engage in socialist machinery. It sucks...I can tell you that from experience.

The USA is defined as having a mixed economic system. Like most of the developed world, it has elements of capitalism and socialism, blended, packaged and wrapped with a pretty little bow. Unfortunately, any system is susceptible to the folly of man, particularly his insatiable greed for riches.

You and me disagree on alot of things. I do see how alot of what you say can make sense, but I don't see it like that the entire way.
But lets say we can determine how one person's wealth is gained.
Like if Mr. W got wealthy from corrupt means and exploitation, could we... IDK, robin hood his a* and give it to the little people?

I don't understand. You don't like what?
The Mr. W example is a bit confusing. If someone attains anything through fraud that is a violation of the non-aggression principle. The wronged party would be entitled restitution via some kind of mechanism...most likely private insurance.
I don’t know - but I heard a clip today about the medical field is prepared to take down the capitalism in their world. They say the Corp world has been their biggest challenge trying to fight this pandemic and they will be heard when it lifts. I think not only the medical world - but this is showing people what’s more important- money or them.
