Why capitalism fails...

Well, how can you blame them?
America does promote the maximizing of personal gain from the lowest to the highest, it's everyone for himself.

Oh please. Don't blame America for greed.
That's been a human pasttime since before humans were homo-sapiens.

I don't want to, but I can't stop myself.
It's just integrated into your system, the ever-consumption cycle. To keep it, you need more. I don't know but people don't seem to be ever content with their lives in the USA, and you have a holiday called "thanksgiving". When was really the last time you gave thanks for anything at all?
I'm no fan of unjust taxes, but the people in America seem to have a real antipathy for taxes, I know no one wants to give a portion of their income away..But no one ever stops and thinks, "What can I do for my country and my countrymen" but people rather stop and think, "what can I do to buy myself a wii".
Maybe I'm exaggerating, but this is the general attitude I saw in Americans throughout the course of the years(on the web though, it might not be reliable, but these are the impressions that I got).
