House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said capitalism isn’t serving the U.S. as it should. On Friday at the Chatham House in London, the Democrat explained how the U.S. economy hasn’t benefited from capitalism. She insisted the U.S. can’t have a system that benefits some by depending on the exploitation of workers and the environment.“In America, capitalism is our system, it is our economic system, but it has not served our economy as well as it should,” said Pelosi. “And so, what we want to do is not walk away from it, but improve it and make sure it serves us.” (Tweet/Video)

She's a fine one to talk about exploitation after all the moderate Dems who've lost their seats in furtherance of her leftist, socialist agenda.

You can't have democracy without capitalism. And vice versa.

What an idiot. Capitalism isn't meant to "serve" government. Like a milk cow hooked up to a milking machine, Nancy?
It's designed to freely serve businesses and individuals to have the maximum flexibility to work and prosper without government heavy-handed intrusion. And in fact, that's when government gets maximum benefit too.
Little Miss Nancy has never really understood it and never will.

Capitalism's purpose isn't to "serve." It just works out that way for all concerned.

"Capitalism hasn’t served the U.S. as well as it should"...,funny how Nancy and her husband have done quite well under our flawed system of capitalism. Maybe she had trouble buying her favorite flavor of gourmet ice cream and that's what triggered claim.

If this wench believes this she is a super hypocrite.
If she believes we don't know she got rich from Capitalism she is a fool.
How stupid is it to bash a form of Government that made her rich and powerful.
How smart is it to go to a foreign country and bash the United States.
One day she will have to run out of the country to insure her safety, like any other political crook.

So says the old hag who has two freezers full of $15/gallon ice cream. Put the pressure on stretch-face and you could have three freezers by year's end.

Did the $14,000 refrigerator in one of Nancy’s kitchen break? I guess communism would get it fixed or replaced faster. Ya think, Nan??

I can go to any grocery store or Wal-Mart, and the shelves are stocked to the ceiling with anything I could possibly want in abundance. And I have money in the bank to go buy those things.
Compare that to most socialist hell-holes, where the shelves in stores are empty, and their money is useless to buy anything even if they did have stuff to buy.
I think capitalism has done pretty darn good for me!!!

Right. It's much easier to tip off your husband about pending government contracts so he can invest millions in their stock right before it skyrockets.

We don't have free market Capitalism Nancy. We have Corruptocrat crony Capitalism which has served you and your family very well. How about, your husband start paying his hotel workers and vineyard workers $20 an hour to prove you are sincere?

Economic democracy is what capitalism is -- we are free to express our choices by the way we spend or invest our assets. In which light the famous quote about democracy attributed to Winston Churchill applies to capitalism, too: It's the worst form of government, apart from all the rest.
Capitalism is about as unjust as can be; but it's still better than the other forms of economy, and WAAAY better than socialism/communism.

Pelosi lives in a gated community, and has an expensive freezer full of gourmet ice cream. I will believe her when she gives it all away to the less fortunate.

Capitalism doesn't serve anybody except independent minded people that what achieve the American dream. If you're lazy, unmotivated and want the government to spoon feed you socialism is better. If you want to achieve success capitalism is just fine.
Fine talk from the leader of the house - idiot.

It always amazes me when people who owe everything they own to capitalism, condemn capitalism. Kinda like getting rich by making a movie or selling a book criticizing the rich.
Capitalism is not the problem. At its' core, capitalism is simply free-market commerce: the exchange of goods and services which, by the way, has been happening since the dawn of human civilization. The problem is in the human heart: selfishness, greed, avarice, ambition, arrogance, pride, cold-hearted disregard for others. As the Old Testament prophet said in Jeremiah 17:9 "the heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked." The only remedy for that is the shed blood of Jesus Christ and the heart peace that only God can give when we acknowledge our sinful state, ask for His forgiveness and seek His cleansing from our sins (1 John 1:9). Capitalism in a world where everyone adhered to the God-given Golden Rule or the 10 Commandments would work just fine.
BTW #13, #21 In the interest of accuracy, it is Jeni's Splendid ice cream - $12 per pint. :-)

"Pelosi: Capitalism hasn’t served U.S.as well as it should" - but it certainly has helped her along the way - she is the most despicable person on the face of the earth
demcommies are the scourge of our country and must be stopped.

"The Founders knew that a democracy would lead to some kind of tyranny. The term democracy appears in none of our Founding documents. Their vision for us was a Republic and limited government."
-- Walter Williams
"Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what is for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the results."
-- Benjamin Franklin
We live in a Constitutional Republic, NOT a democracy. Why can't people keep this straight??!!

I need a new freezer. Pelosi's cost $15,000. I want one just like it for $1000 and her $15 pints of ice cream for $2.99. Isn't that what you say Communism is about Nancy? Being wealthy, she should pay the difference. Tax her, she's rich.
