Apparently all it takes for CNN to realize the greatness of capitalism is to reminisce about childhood trick-or-treating . CNN's "American Morning" condemned socialism and praised capitalism on Oct. 30. No, they weren't discussing big bailouts or entrepreneurs. They were talking about Halloween candy. "Okay. This is the most, this is the most capitalist of holi- this holiday is so capitalist....
