Saving Capiitalism!

Sure, the capitalists killed capitalism and maybe socialism is better or maybe not. Here are some ideas to save capitalism from itself while we ponder the socialist-capitalist dichotomy.

Harvard's MBA program, Capitalism's incubator, should offer a course on "Hey, wait, don't kill capitalism!" Heck, make it a whole new graduate program.

Past graduates have done their best to destroy the system: George Bush and the best and brightest on Wall Street. Time for a change, here at Harvard!

Topics:

Karl Marx on how capitalists will sell the rope with which to hang themselves--required 3 credit course.

Signs that the system is going down:

20-somethings from Yale making 30 million a year on Wall Street. (only a year after graduating!) 3 credits

Larry Summers saying unions are bad for employment. (Taught by Larry Summers!--3 credits

Revolving door from the government to Wall Street and back again. (10K upfront fee-3 credits)

George Bush brought down 3 firms and several countries, including his own. Find out how he did it and then develop plans for a healthier alternative. 3 credits
