Quote of Note #269: Conscienceless, Rapacious Capitalism

" In all fairness, we must admit that capitalism has often left a gulf between superfluous wealth and abject poverty, has created conditions permitting necessities to be taken from the many to give luxuries to the few, and has encouraged small-hearted men to become cold and conscienceless so that, like Dives before Lazarus, they are unmoved by suffering, poverty-stricken humanity." M. L. King, Jr. (To see the full quote, click the link below.)
