Morganization or as Rockefeller called it, "combination" is not American free enterprise. Rockefeller was almost imprisoned for what he accomplished. It is rather, the work of something akin to fascism and almost always has to do with gaining: 1. a protected status by government intervention and involvement and, 2. securing especially favorable financing through the age-old, extremely corrupt central banking system stemming from Europe (established by royals and that other infamous family, name beginning with the letter "R.").

That system is not economic freedom (which Marx and Marxists call "capitalism") but collectivism. Thus, having corrupted freedom, it becomes the straw man for the other side of collectivism's coin, socialism. And whether the neo-fascists or the neo-Marxists are in power, the central cartel collective and its systemic corruption reap the rewards of the labor of people who either think they're free or think they're striving for it.

America was instead built upon the idea that markets should be kept free, especially free of government or bank cartel manipulation, and nationally guarded, not to play favorites, but to allow natural competition and natural opportunity to allow wealth to develop freely among an people engaging in the intercourse of commerce as they each choose, based on their own resources. And that is how America has worked to become the most thriving nation in the world. That kind of minimalist guardianship is how regulation should work, instead of what we see now, where America's and most nations' regulatory systems are "captured," by cartel collectivism, on an increasingly global scale.

So, I don't suggest drinking the socialist Kool-Aid of confusing true, American free enterprise with the orchestrated corruption collectivist "capitalism." And it is time to get beyond the manufactured, Orwellian-scale, false dichotomy of that perversion of freedom against it's even more directly corrupt "antithesis," of collectivist statism.

Spend just a few days driving in a place with strong centrally planned traffic controls (like, say, anywhere in Switzerland) and then spend a few days in someplace without (like, say, much of India) and then try with a straight face to make the case that there is ANYTHING preferable about the latter.
