Wow.
Today I learned that "capitalist" means "treating the customer as the enemy" and "legitimized exploitation".
Honestly curious - have you absorbed these attitudes from an MBA program, or did you develop them more organically?
- giardini 8y agoI did not say that but I've said this before and it is well worth repeating: *“People of the same trade seldom meet together, even for merriment and diversion, but the conversation ends in a conspiracy against the public, or in some contrivance to raise prices.” - Adam Smith, "The Wealth of Nations" This is almost a definitive description of capitalism both by its origin and by its very nature.
