Are You Ready To Consider That Capitalism Is The Real Problem?

Are You Ready To Consider That Capitalism Is The Real Problem?

 

In February, college sophomore Trevor Hill stood up during a televised town hall meeting in New York and posed a simple question to Nancy Pelosi, the leader of the Democrats in the House of Representatives. He cited a study by Harvard University showing that 51% of Americans between the ages of 18 and 29 no longer support the system of capitalism,
and asked whether the Democrats could embrace this fast-changing
reality and stake out a clearer contrast to right-wing economics.

Pelosi
was visibly taken aback. “I thank you for your question,” she said,
“but I’m sorry to say we’re capitalists, and that’s just the way it is.”
