“Real Time” host Bill Maher last night, during his popular “New Rules” segment, clowned laissez-faire bullshitters who demonize socialism while allowing capitalism to spread like wildfire into every nook of American life.

“America’s real religion is capitalism,” he explained. “And like any religion, it needs a devil. And that devil has always been socialism.”
