Remember that for a capitalist, free market and lack of government intervention means:

  • Lower taxes (for the capitalists)
  • Less regulation (for the capitalists)
  • No government handouts (except for capitalists)

Etc.

They absolutely do say what they're going to when they suggest improvements. Just remember - they only apply to the capitalist class. They're not talking about you. Everything they say lines up when you remember, if they say "I'm going to improve X", just add "for billionaires" at the end. If they say "I'm going to stop Y programs", just add "but only for the poor".

It all makes sense viewed as the class warfare that it is.
