The US hasn't been anything remotely akin to the capital of Capitalism in more than half a century. The US has a hyper regulated, highly taxed economy, to go with a gigantic government. The capital of Capitalism would be the opposite in most every respect. Go back to the late 19th century in the US as one example, if you want to see low regulation and low taxation.

This is pure hyperbole. I don’t know who told you that any of that is true but they’re taking advantage of your trust.
