    What more are you seeking?
    Congress has every power to fix the problems with capitalism, but constitutionally won’t.
    Law is theirs to define, and amend.

    Do you want to fix Congress’s constitutional power to legislate commerce&trade, or are you here to lick their shoes?

        Why do you need capitalism?
