We've had several threads about new economic thinking and how broken capitalism is. This encapsulates many of them.
I would much rather have broken capitalism than working socialism.

In another thread someone said that a source I used is questionable. VOX is not questionable, it is an extremely biased and therefore unreliable source!
In other words, "I'd rather not read it, my mind is made up"? Yes, you use questionable sources, but I still read them. THEN I laugh and make fun of them.

A well reasoned argument is like a diamond: impervious to corruption and crystal clear - and infinitely rarer.

Here, as elsewhere, people are outraged at what feels like a rigged game -- an economy that won't respond, a democracy that won't listen, and a financial sector that holds all the cards. - Robert Reich
