Some people like to bash "capitalism" as the source of all problems. That's great, but remember, capitalism also includes:
- the young couple down the street who started a restaurant together,
- the immigrants who wake up at 3 AM to make doughnuts, so their children can go to college,
- people who write useful software and would like to be paid for it,
- your local bookstore owner,
...and many more.
Next time you want to call capitalism *purely* evil, think of those people.
