Out of respect to you Solumina, I meant to answer this earlier and got side-tracked.
I'm against all non-essential spending. Government funds should only be used for military defense and infrastructure.
Capitalism is not a solution to anything, it is an inevitable result of trade and human desire, which is an emotion fueled by cause and effect. Tribalism lead to feudalism which lead to capitalism. The hoarding and control of wealth and resources is not something new that came about with the capitalist system, it's been going on in one form or another for as long as man has existed.
