A Brief Talk On Capitalism/Democracy

 "Americans’ confidence in capitalism and democracy has fallen sharply." 

Article per WSJ

I sat and pondered over this.

This group....comes out of a NORC poll.  It says that only 48-percent of Americans feel capitalism works.  56-percent rationalize that democracy is not working well.

I looked at the poll....what they don't say....if a major amount of the negativity people....are college-educated (brain-washed).

One funny element of this....there's simply a lot of students who wrapped up college...got a debt of $80k, and found that jobs aren't plentiful.  

What the gov't should offer?   Offer one-way tickets to  a alternate country where you think democracy works better, and is mostly chatty on their version of capitalism/socialism.  Once they leave....don't let them come back unless they pay for the trip we gave them.

Last year....there was some lesbian couple that hauled-off, and left for Canada....mostly over Trump.  About 6 to  8 weeks into the hauling-off....they noted things in Canada weren't better, and this was mostly a mistake.

Reality works more effectively....if you give folks a dose or two.
