I’m not anti-capitalist at all, but all good things have limits. It’s a wonderful thing to eat a scoop of ice cream, or three scoops of ice cream, but I would never suggest that anyone eat 1000 scoops of ice cream.

Grombobulous says "I’m not anti-capitalist at all".

Nonsense. You are a simple study and you are envious. There are good reasons why envy is listed as one of the "Seven Deadly Sins". See Wikipedia:
