A system of capitalism presumes sound money, not fiat money manipulated by a central bank. Capitalism cherishes voluntary contracts and interest rates that are determined by savings, not credit creation by a central bank.
Ron Paul
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
America traditionally represents the greatest possibility of someone's going from nothing to something. Why? In theory, if not practice, the government stays out of the way and lets individuals take risks and reap rewards or accept the consequences of failure. We call this capitalism - or, at least, we used to.
Larry Elder
At the highest stage of capitalism, the most necessary revolution appears as the most unlikely one.
Herbert Marcuse
But we don't have an example of a democratic society existing in a socialist economy - which is the only real alternative to capitalism in the modern world.
Peter L. Berger
Capitalism and the market are presented as synonymous, but they are not. Capitalism is both the enemy of the market and democracy.
David Korten
Capitalism attacks and destroys all the finer sentiments of the human heart; it ruthlessly sweeps away old traditions and ideas opposed to its progress, and it exploits and corrupts those things once held sacred.
Daniel De Leon
Capitalism has destroyed our belief in any effective power but that of self interest backed by force.
George Bernard Shaw
Capitalism has socialized production. It has brought thousands of people together in the factory and involved them in new social relationships.
C. L. R. James
Capitalism historically has been a very dynamic force, and behind that force is technical progress, innovation, new ideas, new products, new technologies, and new methods of managing teams.
Manmohan Singh
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
Capitalism is a stupid system, a backward system.
Stokely Carmichael
Capitalism is not about free competitive choices among people who are reasonably equal in their buying and selling of economic power, it is about concentrating capital, concentrating economic power in very few hands using that power to trash everyone who gets in their way.
David Korten
Capitalism is not an economic system, but a world-outlook, or rather, a part of a whole world-outlook.
Francis Parker Yockey
Capitalism is the astounding belief that the most wickedest of men will do the most wickedest of things for the greatest good of everyone.
John Maynard Keynes
Capitalism is the legitimate racket of the ruling class.
Al Capone
Capitalism is using its money; we socialists throw it away.
Fidel Castro
Capitalism is war; socialism is peace.
Karl Liebknecht
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
Capitalism should not be condemned, since we haven't had capitalism.
Ron Paul
