American Capitalism was once built with the danger of foreign, namely British, influence in mind.
The implicit purpose of serving the American people came naturally with that.
These American people being free white persons of good character, of course. As the founding fathers intended.

I think it's funny how many people say they believe in the original intent of the founding fathers when it comes to the constitution but completely skip the part about who they say gets to vote or become citizens.

When we had vertical integration we had it made. Only imports were raw materials and luxury items that weren't a threat to the average consumer market. Vertical integration also meant that the trickle down effect actually worked because more jobs were created the more the business grew. When people make millions selling Chinesium and underpaying a few basic tier employees for distribution and etc that's just not the same. That's the Chinese getting the trickle down.

But yes. Those owners being White men of character was also key.

It worked when Americans had a common sense of self. There is no unity anymore. How many people here know the names of their next door neighbors? It's every man for themselves and it's horrible. We've talked about the shopping cart test. I've done that all my life not realizing how important it was. But how many people will run a red light risking killing strangers so that they aren't late to ______.
