This is a super smart talking point that Congressman Paul has never really come out in an interview and nailed so dramatically in the past. I have always wondered why RP doesn't hammer the difference in every single interview. Naive but well intending people think that a vote for Ron Paul will make corporate abuse increase geometrically, when the exact opposite is true.
It could become a wide spread slogan: "Capitalism, Not Corporatism!"
It is important for people to understand this and RP seemed to always talk around it somewhat. The moderates and leftys that might join our cause think that "capitalism" and "corporatism" are the same.
Bush gave "privatization" and "capitalism" horrible reputations but the downside is all from government intervention. "Privatization" is bad when the government is the sole customer. I think the Bush strategy of getting the masses to hate "capitalism" may have been intentional to simply pave the way for more government "regulation" with subsequent administrations.
