  2. This is truly a sad and shameful situation for the richest economy of the world in a state that has one of the highest percentages of millionaires in the country. If the economy goes through another collapse because of the shutdown and the debt ceiling kerfuffle, there will be many more homeless people in the woods. Capitalism is amoral and cares nothing for the sufferings of the less fortunate. Sometimes it feels like the purpose of capitalism is to grind the poor into a fine dust and to sweep them into the nearest gutter.
