6. So doesn't it then

stand to reason that any purist system will never work in the long term? As wealthy and priviledged as most of America is, this article highlights the flaws in our capitalist system.

Will we learn from the excesses and shortages, and adjust accordingly? It certainly seems like it would be easier than watching the whole thing go down the drain. Something I'm hopelessly, emotionally against. Millions of damned fine people paid the ultimate price for this land.

What a crying shame it would be to let the greedy freaks win the day/year/eon.

Or am I being Captain Obvious here?
