Capitalism is why 'Imagine: Living in a Socialist USA' retails at Amazon

Fred Jerome does the socialists disservice when he advocates living in a socialist state. Consider this. Fred's article at Salon excerpts from a book that sells at Amazon. How ironical. Capitalism be cursed, but socialists must sell the book 'Imagine: Living in a Socialist USA' at a capitalist price at a capitalist retailer to capitalist consumers.

Capitalism is why there are producers who compete. Capitalism is why there are consumers who make buying choices.

Capitalism is why socialist nonsense like 'Imagine: Living in a Socialist USA' retails at a bookstore at a chosen price. Capitalism is why as a consumer I choose not to read nonsense, and so choose not to buy 'Imagine: Living in a Socialist USA'.

The world of Socialism on the other hand is squarely about a loss of free will to be replaced by the will of the state. In the world of books that would mean the authors don't decide what sells, and at what price; and buyers don't decide what they buy, and what price.

Yeah, scary!
