[MCN] So, who's the main danger to capitalism?

[Lance Olsen]

" Š the main dangers to the success of capitalism 
are the very people who would consider themselves 
its most ardent advocates : the bosses of 
companies, the owners of companies, and the 
politicians who tirelessly insist that they are 
'pro-business'."

"Many of the corporate scandals that America, 
especially, has endured in recent years reflect 
outright criminality. A lawful order knows what 
to do with criminals, and pro-business 
politicians are in truth militantly 
anti-capitalist if they flinch from cracking down 
on bosses' crimes."

"Š widespread and quite outrageous abuse, by 
capitalists, of capitalism Š The danger exists 
everywhere in the world, but it matters most in 
the United States."

The Economist, Special 160th Anniversary Issue, A 
Survey of Capitalism and Democracy, June 26-July 
4, 2003
