I, for one, as a citizen of one of the most privileged countries in the world, am very happy that the government provides many of the services it does (EPA, FCC, FDA, Medicare, Medicaid, USPS, SEC, GAO, CBO, NOAA, CDC, just to name a few).
These organizations aren't perfect, but that's not an indictment - nothing on this Earth is perfect, and libertarian capitalism is not a solution to any of the worlds problems.
Context and history are important. Pure capitalism has never been, and never will be, unicorns and rainbows as far as the eye can see.
