Correct. I would suggest that Israel was capitalistic in theory, although not defined in term. For much of human history, capitalism has been functioning. I see it often as I study the context of scripture and cultures. There may be a monarchy or feudal system in place also, but capitalism was functioning, just under restraint.mike wrote: Hasn't this abuse occurred under all kinds of economic systems including capitalism, socialism, feudalism, etc?
I agree that the US does not have a pure capitalistic system in place. It is a hybrid. I am okay with that too.
