Platt,

What "capitalist system" are you talking about in the above Dickensian 
paragraph considering the US, UK etc are mixed economy/government command 
controlled systems and have been since the 1930s (if not earlier)?

It sounds like you are talking bullshit as ever.  Maybe I should pray for 
you?

Best wishes,

Ant.
