Capitalism: The Enron Case

Knowing how much money he has and how very little he pays his workers shows how ruthless he is as a business owner. Likewise, John Rockefeller forced his workers to work long hours for low pay. He also discouraged union activity in his corporation. It seems oddly unfair the he donated millions of dollars to many different causes but

Firstly, the banks hugely increased the market for synthetic CDO’s. This is borderline illegal and should be illegal but isn’t. These were a huge contribution to why the housing market collapsed.

Andrew Carnegie was one of the most famous and wealthiest American industrialist during the Industrial Age. He was a robber baron who made a fortune in the steel industry and applied vertical integration to his business. Carnegie contradicted his views as a robber baron because he supported, but destroyed many unions. This made many of his views unethical.

Since the song focuses on so many topics it is very difficult to analyze the entire song as a whole. This is why I chose to analyze lyrics individually. The first line in the song ,”Capitalism running through them like the rumour business” Capitalism is when trade and the economy is privately owned.

However, the big question is, who’s fault it

By having this power over the banks they lead to the destruction of the economy. This book shows the loopholes that the rich businessmen were able to get through in the property market and getting out of taxes.
