I would like to clarify one thing. It wasn't that 'It attacked capitalism and capitalism had no response', it was that 'It attacked capitalism and capitalism showed it was not geared for any kind of response to a situation like this'. You know, when reason, compassion, and ethical behavior was expected. They have never done this before, why would we ever start thinking that they would now?
