Ishbadiddle: Press 1 For A Message About Capitalism

Press 1 For A Message About Capitalism

OK so this is a robocall I just got:

Hello, press 1 for a message about capitalism.

Of course I press 1. It's been too long since my last political philosophy class.

The United States of America was founded on the principles of small government and allowing people to follow their dreams. Keep capitalism strong in the USA.

And that was it. Who paid for this? Why? What does it mean?

I got the call in Galveston Island, near Texas. I hung up, then wished I hadn't. I see that I didn't miss much.
