If it was, would people like Stiglitz and Krugman have been able to win the Nobel Prize?

Hi girl, long time no see! Carol/LadyLawyer

Yeah.

Hi there. New pic...no smile? Carol/LadyLawyer

It's an opinion piece, so I don't know why you would. But as long as you don't plagiarize it then I don't really care.

I just have not seen you posting for sometime. But then again, I take vacations from posting as well.

Hey Ms. McCain. Thanks for the rep point. Glad to see you back. Glad to see that you have wised up about some things. Michael Moore's movies are very enlighting. Keep up the good fight.

You totally deserved it. The voice of reason in a sea of negativity

AMcCain, don't listen to Darwinist. He gets confused real easy.

smooches Darwinist :-{}

If you're a capitalist there's simply a choice you have to make: are you going to put a higher priority on making money than on treating people in a decent and fair manner? You can do both. But for too many capitalists, too many corporations, too many business owners, it becomes all about pleasing the investors; and what pleases them is MONEY, because they're not directly involved with operations. They judge on one criterion: short-term profitability. When the people who run the company agree or get snared into thinking that short-term profit is the be-all-end-all, then anything that improves it becomes fair game - no matter how unethical it is, and ultimately no matter how illegal it might be as long as it can be hidden. That is the inevitability of capitalism: unless yoked to a higher virtue (social consciousness, for example) it inevitably gravitates toward making the acquisition of money more important than treating people with fairness and dignity.
