Capitalism can be alright, I mean Karl Marx didn't live to see what Roosevelt did with that Depression. He pulled everybody out of that Depression and everybody hated Franklin Roosevelt.

I can't tell you how many times at the breakfast table my dad would curse out Franklin Roosevelt. I love my father.
