This. They love their disability checks, social security, the stimulus checks, farm subsidies, etc. but hate the word "socialism." They're even cheering government owned stakes in companies.
Just call it a freedom check and print it on American flag paper or something.
I hope we also get Freedomcare for All!
I bet Trump establishes a health care plan called “Trump Care” that is basically “Medicare for All,” and the GOP will give it a thumbs up!

They are sort of disappointed with the way our capitalist system tends to want to leverage India and China, which aren't capitalist by the way. The companies want all of the protections and handouts, but they never really reciprocate.
It's just more of the, "we want immigrants, if we don't get more immigrants we'll offshore and leave to India and China".
If that's the capitalism you're referring to, no I'm not interested in bailing them out with tax funded Ponzi schemes subsidizing a perpetually poor labor pool for Walmart as it are.
The dehumanization of workers is the logical conclusion of capitalism because it is a fundamentally materialistic system. The worst impulses of capitalism were moderated by other forces, like the church historically, but with the church's decline capitalism has been able to run unhindered. At the end of the day, you and I are less important to capitalists than some number on a spreadsheet.
