Message: Entry: The Ugliest Yacht in the World Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/the_ugliest_yacht_in_the_world#33153 Post contents: No such thing as "excessive wealth", but you do have "ill gotten wealth", Russian oligarchs being an example of the latter. To call what goes on in Russia 'capitalism' is to not understand the term, if you are trying to indicate the free market. All industrial societies are capitalist to some extent, but I refuse to allow Marx to define my terminology. That you do not understand the division of labor and how the secretary contributes to wealth creation shows that your ignorance (lack of knowledge, not insult - no one who writes as well as you do is a blockhead) that of how a free-market economy works. The wealthier the better - since few of the rich such as M Stewart put all of their money in their drawers their assets provide much needed investment money, plus the wealthy purchase costly new tech items in such quantities as to help make such devices accessible to the middle and lower classes.. Please don't let crooks who use political means to obtain their pelf blind you to the benefits reaped by a society that has as many wealthy (through economic means)people. Ever try to get a job from a poor person - it's tough. Sent at: 2008 12 02
