To clarify the work that capitalists do, let's imagine a hypothetical. Let's say we 'fired' all of them. We send them to the unemployment lines and have them turn in all their capital to the government. What do we do with it? Who decides? How?
That's what we are doing now. The President is deciding who wins and looses by assigning Czars, like the Car, Energy, and Banking Czars to distribute U.S. notes around like it was monopoly money to their cronies.
To a degree, yes. But the critics of capitalism seem to be suggesting we do much more of this, and give individuals much less control over the process. I think it will be a really bad mistake.
Who is suggesting more crony capitalism?
