Or it takes a mob to take out the strong who abuses the rules. Good business benefits all. Those who take risk need to be rewarded for success. They need to be watched. If a corporation were to run a country, they would lay off citizens.
Governments are the only check against rampant capitalism.
It would also be ironic if the arms race bankrupted communism and capitalism collapsed by itself under its own weight. Without honor, one has no shame and is nothing. I'd rather be an arms merchant and sell death than work in advertising or by a lawyer to lie and twist the truth on a regular basis. The older you get, the faster time flies by. When you were a child you had an eternity.
