Roger Terry has given us an innovative alternative form of capitalism. Terrific. But there's more! Wait until you see the rest of this series!
An Internet friend of mine who is also an editor and writer wrote not long ago that capitalism is intrinsically a despicable economic system that has caused the U.S. to be the scourge of humanity, so to speak. 5 I posted this response to his article:
"Capitalism, on the other hand, is not intrinsically the curse of humanity as you suggest. In two of my books, The Devil's Marriage: Break Up the Corpocracy or Leave Democracy in the Lurch; and, Corporate Reckoning Ahead, I present six viable, alternative forms of capitalism, none of which resemble the present form. And I laid out a way to put the latter in the dustbin of history. Of course, Americans have been duped by the corpocracy to accept the present form of capitalism as the only form, and unless they wise up and rise up America and the rest of the world will continue to suffer until the bitter end, which will also sweep away the power elite but not soon enough."
That commentary of mine underlies this series. By its end you will have come to your own conclusion if not way before.
