    • Yes.  As far as I know, it’s original.  I did my research and cannot find it anywhere—not Ayn Rand, not Milton Friedman, not Ludwig von Mises.  I think it’s best definition of capitalism ever articulated.  But that’s just my opinion.

      Thank you for responding.   Bob

    • Yes, I wanted replies. And I don’t understand your sarcasm. As far as I know, and I researched it thoroughly, it’s an original quote. Not Ayn Rand, not von Mises. I think it’s the very best and most accurate definition of capitalism ever. So, yeah, it would’ve cool if someone would have responded, “Man, that fucking rocks.”
