Was Elvis a capitalist

Answer 1

The short answer is "yes" Elvis believed in the Capitalist System of the United States of America.

BUT Elvis also believed that he/we should always help our fellow man (which Elvis did both publicly and privately every week/month/year of his life).

Elvis, due to his fear of the IRS and Colonel Parker supporting that fear, was in the NINETY PERCENT tax bracket and each year sent in his tax returns with a note "let me know what I owe you". Hence, Elvis never maximized his IRS deductions/tax returns.

Lastly, Elvis always believed/stated that God blesses each of us with unique talents and he questioned (from the time he was born until the day he died) "why me Lord"?

Great question by the way.
