You say that as if capitalism doesn't exist outside of the USA.
Yeah, it does exist elsewhere; I think the point they're making is that it is apparent the United States was founded specifically for the interests of landowning (and slave owning) rich people. While not unique globally, the USA was probably the first country intentionally founded to protect the capitalist instead of the nobility or a religious group.
