Capitalism gets a lot of hate.
I expect it from the left. They blame free markets for racism, "horrifying inequality" and even, according to Economist Joseph Stiglitz, "accelerating climate change."
People on the right generally defend capitalism, but today, a growing number agree with the left.
In my new video, author James Lindsay says, "They make the exact same arguments that we've heard for decades: 'capitalism has made everything about the dollar. Everything's about GDP ... you lose everything that really matters, like kinship and nation and identity ... '"
Tucker Carlson, who Lindsay calls "woke right," praises Sen. Elizabeth Warren's economic programs, saying they "make obvious sense."
