As anyone who has been paying attention knows (like the fine cartoonists below), we no longer live in a capitalist system, if we ever did. Instead we live in a Bizarro World economy where the failures of the rich are bailed out at the expense of the middle-class and poor and one of our two major political parties thinks the answer to this is to cut benefits for everyone but the wealthy, allow corporations and banks to ream us at will, and repeat the same mistakes that led to the financial collapse in 2008. I like to call this dip into fiscal insanity ‘crapitalism.’
