Republicans hate capitalism

What they embrace, I don't know but it isn't capitalism and it might even be worse than communism.

Let's start with a definition of capitalism: An economic system based on a free market, open competition, profit motive and private ownership of the means of production. Capitalism encourages private investment and business, compared to a government-controlled economy.

So naturally with capitalism the company that can produce the product consumers want to buy wins. Consider broadband. People want cheap fast broadband. Who provides it? Well, no one, but if you want broadband you can pick from a handful of monopolies. Some competitive groups like a municipality might actually be able to make some cheap fast broadband, but we don't like that type of competition in our capitalism. We'll go lobby (read bribe) our easy pukes and make government intervene. That's our "capitalism." Bye bye broadband, Hello dark ages.

I think you missed my point, there buddy. I know what a fucking social contract is, but do I believe that's proper reasoning for the limitation of all personal freedoms? NOPE and FUCK NO. Why? Because Social contracts are a matter of convience, people follow them when they see fit. There's a bunch of shit that you believe, that clearly violates the social contracts create in writ as to the rights of humans to reproduce. What you imply and suggest is complete control over what other people do with their sexual organs. That's facsism, fanaticism and at it's core- fundamentalism. Typically the American social contract rejects these notions, just like we reject islamo extremism.
