Will's right, there are such safeguards, but the big guns can work
around such minor details as the rules and regs.

I didn't say that Capitalism doesn't still have problems or that abuses of
the system don't exist. I said 19th century and 21st Century capitlaism are
different - and this is true. And public ownership of large companies - the
"Democratization" of capital - puts the lie to much of what Marx and Engels
predicted.

In any event the problems of our economic system in no way prove that any
other system - or having no system at all - is a better way. Again, merely
criticizing something doesn't mean you have a solution or anything better at
all to offer. That there were people stupid enough to think different only led
to genocide, mass murder and totalitarianism; under the Nazis, under the
Fascists, and under the banner of Marxist revolution.

For all it's problems Capitalism still works best as an economic model,
socialism has even more problems then Captalism does but at least it's a
functional system. Unlike Marxist economics which has been proven to be total
bull**** in theory and in practice.
