"I believe we are about to forever change Capitalism as we know it in the next 4 years. Is that a good or bad thing?"

Pat, I would be curious to know what you mean by the above.

If the government uses Socialist solutions to solve problems that it created in the marketplace ("nationalizing" aka "bailing out" industries, which the Soviets used to do about every five years), is it Capitalism that has been changed? Or is it something else?

Can anything Obama has in mind be worse for the so-called Capitalist system than the past couple of decades have been?

Just curious.
