"Renaissance Macro Research head of economic research Neil Dutta also 
shared an astonishing statistic with the WSJ: that capital expenditures 
for AI have contributed more to the growth of the US economy so far this 
year than all of consumer spending combined."

If that is an accurate assessment, it's scary as hell.

“The problem with capitalism is not too many capitalists, but not enough 
capitalists.” 

G.k. Chesterton

Capitalism and communism both treat man as an economic object and 
disregard tradition, duty, honor, and so on.  for whatever reason I feel 
more comfortable with the Continental intellectual tradition starting with 
Sturm und Drang than the Anglo-American.
