The US is the most powerful capitalist economy in the world. When it comes to capital and the rights of capital, it is the belly of the beast; it is the worst of the major advanced capitalist countries to be poor in.  Since their precious market was dragged from the edge of the abyss by public funds in 2008, we have commented on the nature of the mood.  The bankers are hated, the rich scorned, polls showed that 36% of the US population were favorable to socialism.

This is despite massive propaganda on behalf of the market, for private ownership of the dominant sectors of the economy and against public services in all forms from freeways to communication.  The USPS for example is an extremely efficient operation.  No matter where you are in this country and those comrades that live outside of it need to recognize that it is more a continent than a country; no matter where you live, in the most rural areas, you get your mail.
