Yeah but where's the USSR now?... π
What the heck? The USA has all those problems, sure but it's way better than all 3rd world countries, top three in 1st world countries AND it's the strongest nation in; military, average living standards, education, medicine, jobs, etc.
I think someone lied to you about capitalism considering it's the reason why our country is so great. But let me put it the best way I know how: at its worse, no one died of starvation under capitalism - even during the greatest recessions. At its best, a shit ton of people starved to death in the cold under communism.
Is capitalism perfect? Far from it. But it works. And God bless America πΊπ²π«‘
