Does anyone know anything about Bendcable? I'm thinking of becoming an advertiser and thought someone here might know about the company... I had an interesting phone conversation with Amy Tykeson there and she was very helpful, but I though someone here at SI might know something more... TIA GZ

Multinational corporations enslaving third-world peasants and stealing their natural resources? “Greedy” landlords throwing grandmothers out on the street? Hardly: Capitalism is actually a social (political) rather than economic system. Traditional definitions focus on private ownership. But what does private ownership imply? Ownership, to have any meaning, must be based on rights. Otherwise you own something only in name while someone else tells you what to do. Capitalism is the system that recognizes and protects individual rights. It defines the only function of government as defending those rights through an objective system of justice. capitalism.com
