Choose a letter: 
Capitalism should not be condemned, since we haven't had capitalism.

Despite what many Americans think, most Soviets do not yearn for capitalism or Western-style democracy.
Dan Rather, American Journalist (1931-  )
There are a few people, but a diminishing number, who still believe that Marxism, as an economic system, off era a coherent alternative to capitalism, and socialism has, indeed, triumphed in one country.
Herbert Read, English Poet
Under capitalism each individual engages in economic planning.
George Reisman, American Economist (1937-  )
Feminism encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians.

Feminism is a socialist, anti-family, political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians.
Pat Robertson, American Clergyman (1930-  )
Advocates of capitalism are very apt to appeal to the sacred principles of liberty, which are embodied in one maxim: The fortunate must not be restrained in the exercise of tyranny over the unfortunate.
Bertrand Russell, British Philosopher (1872-1970)
Following the rise of the Labour Party it seemed reasonable, in 1927, to expect, or at least hope, that co-operation for the common good might gradually replace the competitiveness of capitalism.

We're not short of movements proclaiming that a different world is possible, but unless we can coordinate them into an international movement, capitalism just laughs at all these little organisations.
Jose Saramago, Portuguese Writer (1922-  )
If allowed to run free of the social system, capitalism will attempt to corrupt and undermine democracy, which is after all not a natural state.
John Ralston Saul, Canadian Author (1947-  )
Capitalism inevitably and by virtue of the very logic of its civilization creates, educates and subsidizes a vested interest in social unrest.
Joseph A. Schumpeter, American Economist (1883-1950)
Capitalism has destroyed our belief in any effective power but that of self interest backed by force.
George Bernard Shaw, Irish Dramatist (1856-1950)
Fascism is capitalism plus murder.
Upton Sinclair, American Author (1878-1968)
It's not difficult in South Africa for the ordinary person to see the link between capitalism and racist exploitation, and when one sees the link one immediately thinks in terms of a socialist alternative.
Joe Slovo, South African Politician (1926-1995)
I don't think that left to its own devices, capitalism moves along smoothly and everyone gets treated fairly in the process. Capitalism is like a child: if you want the child to grow up free and productive, somebody's got to look over the shoulder of that child.
Tavis Smiley, American Author (1964-  )
The ideology of capitalism makes us all into connoisseurs of liberty - of the indefinite expansion of possibility.
Susan Sontag, American Author (1933-2004)
Capitalism knows only one color: that color is green; all else is necessarily subservient to it, hence, race, gender and ethnicity cannot be considered within it.
Thomas Sowell, American Economist (1930-  )
Socialism is nothing but the capitalism of the lower classes.
Oswald Spengler, German Philosopher (1880-1936)
The paradigm of competition is a race: by rewarding the winner, we encourage everyone to run faster. When capitalism really works this way, it does a good job; but its defenders are wrong in assuming it always works this way.
Richard Stallman, Scientist (1953-  )
Lenin was the first to discover that capitalism 'inevitably' caused war; and he discovered this only when the First World War was already being fought. Of course he was right. Since every great state was capitalist in 1914.
