How Capitalism Works: Everybody Owes Everybody Else

Filed in Financial Crisis , Humor 0 comments

One of the upsides to having insomnia is you watch all sorts of things you wouldn’t ordinarily watch.

Case in point, this humorous quote from an old James Cagney flick One Two Three filmed during the Cold War which couldn’t have sarcastically summed up the Achilles Heel of capitalism and forecasted the financial crisis any better had they put it on the front page of Pravda.

You mean I’ve been a capitalist [formerly a communist] for 3 hours and already I owe $10,000?!?

That’s what makes our system works: everybody owes everybody!

Quote ~2:00 minute mark
