I like how everyone here is falling over themselves to explicitly agree (but not too agreeably) that every successful economy in the world is Capitalist, but no no no they aren't extreme Capital-"C" Capitalist, of course they have social programs and safety nets and regulation, to have any less would be stupid!
...but in any other conversation, suggesting a slight nudge to the left on social or economic policies gets you labelled a Communist who wants to bring back the potato line and give free money to the undeserving.
It's kind of cool to look at this really high-level though, we're all just asking for inches on a political line that spans miles.
