Cover art for American Capitalist lyrics by Five Finger Death Punch

i believe that this song is about how Americans are greedy and how the u.s. has declined as a great nation and how we don't want to believe that we are so greedy

What a crock of do do. There's nothing wrong with capitalism when the person behind any action has morals. The alternative is socialism, and we've seen has that hasn't worked well in ANY country EVER. The reason these bands can perform and make money is due to capitalism, a system based on hard work; talent; education; creativity; etc. Our system is the greatest in the world, and only warped by individuals who have taken God out of their decisions (and investments).
