I make the case for free markets ... young people elect socialists! "We've tried to convince people about the benefits of free enterprise ... (Yet) they embrace socialism," believing "posts from people like actor Mark Ruffalo: 'Capitalism today is failing us, killing us, and robbing from our children's future ...'""Capitalism has done just the opposite!" Free markets are also moral, he says, because capitalists don't get rich by forcing people to hand over money. If politicians grant favors or give handouts to politically connected companies (known as crony capitalism), the market system breaks down. Capitalism, despite its occasional greed and excess, is the only system that lets people prosper.
