I agree that "free market capitalism" isn't the proper target, but I the _implementation_ of "free market capitalism" in the U.S. has not resulted in "human liberation," but instead has resulted in "economic control by the rulers", where rulers = "the ultra-rich".
- jamesbritt 13y agothe _implementation_ of "free market capitalism" I.e. not actually free-market capitalism. So why refer to it as such? I'm puzzled by the number of people who call the economic system of the US free-market capitalism. It's corporatism, or state capitalism, or a mixed economy, or something else. But not free-market capitalism. Much like people point to the state of health care and health insurance in the US and say that it shows the failure of the free market. It's anything but.
