The lies of capitalism.

1) Wealth will “trickle down”  
2) I took all the risks
3) I could pay you more if there were less government regulations
4) If you work hard, one day you can be rich like us (We live in a meritocracy)
5) This is as good as it gets (there is no alternative, TINA)
6) We give back to the community
7) The system (and economic theory) is rational and takes into account social and environmental costs
8) The future will be better
9) It’s Just Business
10) Financial markets & debt are necessary
