Hive account@denmarkguy , "rampant uncontrolled capitalism?" What we have here in the US is far from capitalism or free markets. Not even close. I don't believe we have had anything of the sort since the early 20th Century and it's getting geometrically worse. Government intervention (including the Fed) in the economy is the root of just about all of what's wrong with the US. They distort capital markets, the prevent true price discovery and have no control on their spending of our money.

By the way congrats with your success on Steemit, you've worked very hard at it and I'm very impressed!
