It seems that capitalism at its best reaps rewards - but capitalism at its finest goes hand in hand with ethics - and hopefully a modicum of smarts:)! Neither of these are seen often enough these days or else we would NOT be seeing the collapse of major companies at the hands of lascivious major stockholders and CEOs, nor would we see those willing - and even eager - to make a quick buck at the expense of future successes - and integrity. I think that is what Howard was alluding to. In that case, I heartily agree. If we continue to seel the best we have to our competition, we can plan on getting beaten roundly on a regular basis. As my daughters say, "well, DUH, Mom!"
