- gouranga 14y agoRubbish. When the successful capitalists lobby politicians and pay them off regularly, it's a closed loop between government and corporations. Us peons don't get a look in.
- luriel 14y agoIt is well known (but sadly still surprising for many) that capitalists are some of the biggest enemies of capitalism. What you are describing is regulatory capture, and is caused by government power, if government didn't have so much power there wouldn't be such a great incentive to corrupt it.
