35. Greed IS capitalism............
Profit is greed. The market is supposed to control greed, but the rise of corporate fascism has lead to the rise of de facto monopolies which destroyed ANY semblance of market control. Interlocking boards of directors, etc. lead to price fixing and strangling of smaller businesses. But don't say this isn't capitalism because this is the ultimate goal of capitalism. Why? Because it results in the most profit. And THAT my friend IS capitalism.
