36. Elect more decent human beings to positions of power, and I'm
sure we all will do well with capitalism. The nation did well with FDR and his
followers, don't you remember? We get into trouble when the greedy and selfish
people take over. And right now they are exercising awesome power.

If some other system can be found in the future where the welfare of everyone
is guaranteed, regardless of who is in power, I'll be all for it. But such a
system is hard to find. Human beings are not perfect.
