Парадокс капитализма заключается в том, что он преобразовывает алчность, жадность и зависть в добродетели.
I am referring to the vices or habits of avarice, greed, selfishness, ambition, pride, envy, inordinate desires and lust, which have caused or resulted in, among other things, the insatiable desire for wealth or gain, ostentatious living, the unnecessary display or use of wealth, reprehensible acquisitiveness and utter wastefulness, and will continue to do so.
