American patients first: Trump orders drugmakers to match lowest global prices

[The Sage of Main Street]

Parents are supposed to kick their kids out at 18 years old and not help them? What are parents supposed to do with their money then

Everybody since America has been created and before that since the caveman days work to provide their children better lives than they themselves had. Parents are supposed to be deprived of that ideal just because they're rich?

Plutelickers Get Brain Disease

Affluenza Affirmative Action is no different from bribing the umpire so your son, the pitcher, gets all the calls and looks good. Wannabe Preppies resent their own fathers for not setting them up above people with better natural talent.

Toxic birth privileges even reach the matter of life and death when they decide who goes to war and who stays home and gets away with his gutless treason by "supporting the troops."

No different from an extension of this evil where a pro athlete would do his best so he could pass on his position to his untalented son. The next generation owns the next playing field, and the winners in the last playing field have no right to have any influence on it.

Confiscating trust funds and severely limiting inheritance would pay for all government expenses. But nepos and their knee-huggers will only emotiate that the GUB MINT!!! will still tax us just as much for new programs it can't afford now.

Communism is when the government owns all the businesses. Capitalism is when the businessmen all own the government. Same difference.

Plus, it should be no secret that Leftists are the sons of rich Rightists.

Those are extreme examples of each pole that are seldom seen anywhere in the world today. Most economic systems have unique blend of both things going on. We need both unless we agree it's every man for himself...and the relationship between both can be anywhere from very good to very bad. It gets vastly more complicated than you described. I commend your basic understanding of these poles, but I've already been aware of how they relate for about 45 years since grade school. Communism vs capitalism was far more of a mainstream topic back then, and has provoked many essays and term papers over the years from many people my age.

Every Bird of Prey Hunts with Claws on Both Its Wings

What they both have in common is absentee ownership, and so does the "blend."
