According to that China owns about 23.4% of our debt. And is the foremost owner of our debt at about 877.5 billion.
That is not 'very little', hell, just holding 10% of our debt is very bad. VERY BAD. Having just about 1/4 of our debt is even worse.
Fact of the matter is, in my opinion, Capitalism is fine and all, but are you aware that we are currently sucking the metaphorical funstick of a Communist country?

China? Communist? Sorry, but
A government that has about a million different procedures you have to sift through to set up a buisness is not Capitalist, if that is what you are implying. The idea has been brought up before that there is no 'pure' political ideology. China is no different.Please read the third word in your link. I'l make it easier for you. GOVERNMENT. We are talking about private donations. Live this China shit alone.
And what do you think is government, to you, specifically? Yes, the American government might owe money to China, but does that mean it is not Capitalist? After all, is it not the very same institution that has supported a laissez-faire, free-market for centuries?Also as a point of order, more Americans are employed by small businesses then corporations.

Altruism as you defined it was an unselfish act, to further define it, it is an act taken on by a person with no visible benefit or later profit to the person for the expressed intent of helping another at their own cost.
What we observe is rather not selfless but a concern for their own profit, a poorly balanced proposal would mean they leave with nothing, so to go with the most balanced point is rather selfish, they are only trying to keep as much money as possible, it is just that the majority of people aren't clued into person B's psyche enough to risk anything more then a completely fair deal.

What defines altruism is not reward or potential reward, but rather intent.
If I help out the little old lady next door out of the goodness of my heart without an expectation of reward, it's still an altruistic action even if the little old lady decides to give me some home made cookies for my trouble.
