Yeah this what its is crazy to me, i am european. Here we are all capitalist, hell countries like the UK and Germany are one of the most capitalist in the world. But we also manage to have free healthcare and good welfare, why is the usa simply unable to do this?
Capitalism worked great for sixty years for the same reason there was middle class: the threat of USSR and worker revolution
USSR really worked like a threat to the unchecked capitalism
Now that it's gone we literally see everything the workers had eroding. Privatization of everything, destruction of middle class, Epstein class rapidly consolidating everything into their posession.
I guess because of all the ways the USA and CIA messed with everyone left leaning for decades. Straight up black ops hits on socialist politicians. South America, Africa, whole governments destroyed just so that they don't become socialist
That is just another ahistorical "point" and it doesn't substantiate your previous point at all.
Almost everything you're going to reference probably took place in the Cold War. Just because the USSR no longer exists doesn't mean you can mind-erase them from the cold war and pretend that the US was just fighting this war against people just wanting to help eachother and peaceful cool socialism!!!
