Republicans are usually against giving "things for free", so connecting this issue only with liberal capitalism is a bit misleading, because it's a wider opinion than that.
But anyway, I do agree with your sentiment.

- dragonwriter 12y agoBoth Keynesian and neoliberal economics are developments of liberal economics.
