During the supposed great era of the USA, we've seen market crashes due to greed, we've seen boring assembly line work for a small percentage of the rich to get richer, and we're seeing the affects of corruption boil over from the last 12 years of letting the market run itself. Sure there were a few good years, but it was a society built like a deck of cards... that are all coming crashing down. The monetary system is folding like a cheap, health care is a mess, the education system is failing and simple greed is pushing the economy over the edge. For a few great years, right?
You said this earlier.

How much of this is due to the US government getting involved in areas where they had no right?

How much of this is due to the fact that you have a Congress that has no qualms about spending billions more than they actually have? How much of this is the fault of a 'capitalist' society? Because I think Adam Smith and many of the founding fathers are spinning in their graves right now with the way the US government is operating.

Certainly not the WAY it was meant to be.
