    This is unregulated capitalism left to its own devices? Limited liability corps? Corporate personhood? FDA, USDA, the entire stock market being tilted toward entrenched interests and big business? Drug and software patents? That’s what you think unregulated means. Fuck me.

    This is the capitalism regulations have given us.

      These are the regulations capitalists have bought. You got it completely backwards. Yes, the entrenched interests have rigged the system for themselves. If that’s what capitalism does.

        So it’s what violently backed, highly regulated capitalism does?

        If you think politicians and CEOs don’t think they’re in the same class you’re insane.
