G: Where on earth did you learn about capitalism? have you read its intellectual fathers like Locke, JS mill, Jefferson, Smith etc? Here you would learn that capitalism and free trade would be represented by two men creating something of value and exchanging it to *mutual* advantage without sacrifice of one to the other.

Qx: Hmmm....sounds interesting. I recall a while back a thread that touched upon Adam Smith. I was wondering if you could respond to what David Korten had to say about this matter.

As for Mr. Rockliff I think what he had to say was quite imteresting also. However, IMO Claire's posting still stands out as a masterpiece in this debating room. I wonder how Gee would have responded to it back then. Anyways, have a good weekend folks. I have to work.
