how capitalism breeds a " me " society.

RE: how capitalism breeds a " me " society.
I don't think that's what people want though bozo. They want the power to choose and the perceived ability to rise to success, just like in America. personally I find it sickeningly selfish. Amazingly the UK population, along with our US counterparts, don't.

The Health Service is an amazing thing. So is UK Education; Local Authority Services; etc etc. People don't want to pay for it. The government meets out the people's wishes by constantly reducing funding to these services with the aim of making it all so that individuals who can pay, get, and those that can't, die/ starve/ rot as is their lot in life.
