You're right, no pure capitalism is possible and therefore arguments against the bad aspects of capitalism are invalid. Anyway, maybe the reason "Americans are not lying in poverty begging for food relative to the past" (to w

I didn't give this title enough clickbait name. Half of people read 'Noam Brown' and kept scrolling and the other half read 'Libratus' and kept scrolling. Suggest better clickbait titles in the comments below.
