現在聽到市場「敗壞我們的道德」的說法已經司空見慣了。這種情緒源於一個錯誤的前提，即自私地追求我們的利益、價值觀、財產和幸福是低級的、粗暴的、庸俗的和不道德的。所謂的“更高”和“更高尚”的東西超越了我們的自我，超越了這個地球。事實上，市場——無論是物質價值還是無形價值的交換——都依賴並獎勵文明的態度和行為。市場是人性化的;它們體現了理性和客觀價值;他們奉行正義;它們需要互惠;他們邀請我們展示我們內在最好的一面;他們給我們上課;他們還排斥和懲罰那些試圖實踐主要惡習（撒謊、欺騙、嘶吼和搶劫）的人。

人們普遍但錯誤地認為，金融經濟資本家在意識形態上必然是親資本主義的。為什麼會這樣？到目前為止，「覺醒」的首席執行官被廣泛認可（並受到稱讚）是反資本主義的，包括違反他們對股東的信託義務。三分之一的財富500強CEO簡歷上的「工商管理碩士」（MBA）研究生學位是CEO覺醒趨勢的主要原因。在之前的會議中，我們討論了公司治理「利益相關者」模式的法西斯主義性質;在本次會議中，我們將討論MBA課程如何以及為什麼宣揚這種思想和其他侵蝕資本主義的想法。
