In terms of resource extraction, capitalism hasn't been that great for the nonhuman nature in which alone you ride. Try environmentalism or pacifism. Also the way Taibbi describes it, we're not in capitalism, but a private-public kleptocracy more akin--via inbreeding--to a gangster monarchy. Dealmakers are religious fundamentalists or artists hawking an ideal of free market freedom, best experienced alone in a yacht anchored off Grand Cayman. Dependent on banks and tax code, they produce capital, but are something else.
