    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

    Most believe there was enough food.
    But, that inequality, lack of infrastructure, rents & British companies grabbing resources are to blame.
    So you switched from present tense to past tense. As I said, it's not capitalism if the gov't takes your freedom.

    So you don't have anything current to prove your assertion???? You just made it up?

    Private citizens are perfectly able of doing a better job without "apprenticing".

    Um, no, we have it far better than that. People there WISH there were food lines.

    Although we do have a leader who is wanted for crimes, so there is that similarity.

    I don't think Biden would pick her for either one but we can hope.

    One persons freedom can be another persons horror like slavery.

    The USA /,Saudi blockade is causing famine in Yemen.

    Gov'ts take away freedom. They are at war.

    It was the capitalist merchant class (you hate) that lead the fight to throw off the chains of Europe's monarchial socialism. Socialism where the King owned everything including his subjects.

    So, you support Anarchy & believe only Anarchy is Capitalism?

    The Capitalist USA is using freedom as an excuse to mass murder.

    Some Kings are good.
    King Jan III Sobieski of Poland saved Europe from Islamic Turk invasions like at Vienna.

    At the same time Capitalists & Mercantilists in the Americas were slaughtering Natives & enslaving Blacks.

    No, anarchy is basically true communism, the dissolution of gov't.

    You need contract law for capitalism.

    Anarchy is true freedom.
    The exact opposite of Communism.

    But, I'd agree Anarchy can't be Capitalist because of lack of law & courts to protect rights.

    Libertarianism is Capitalism in its purest form.

    Boy that stinks about as bad ad Communism.

    Ah yes, ... the benign dictatorship, ... the liberal delusional fantasy gov't.

    It took us a long time to throw off the chains of old European socialism. The initial footprints of Spaniards, Brits, and French in America ... were monarchial socialist.

    No, in its final phase, communism is the dissolution of the State. Look it up.

    Libertarianism is very similar to Constitutionalism. It protects freedom.

    The Democratic Capitalist societies have caused a lot of issues too.
    Like Britain & the USA.

    Eh, Brits were a mix of Capitalism & Mercantilism.

    Monarchy was somewhat limited since the Magna Carta.

    That's from kook Marx.
    You can't eliminate Capitalism & create a classless society without the iron fist.

    Eh, The Founding Fathers America was for only White male landowners voting or 6% of the population, They were for Corporate charters & for only Whites of good character to become US citizens according to the Naturalization Act of 1790.

    Hardly Libertarian.

    As for Libertarianism the faults are obvious.
    A tiny military & minimized border security make it easily infiltrated.

    It also promotes Corporate monopolies which behave like Communists monopoly over the economy.

    Where Corporate monopolies cut corners, jack up prices & create junk.

    Inequality & massive poverty are also issues of Libertarianism.
