It's just CRONYISM

Reader comment on: Crony Capitalism vs 'Real' Capitalism

Words matter, repetition works, people don't pay as much attention as we'd like them to, too often people will drop the adjective and focus on the noun.

For that reason, everywhere I go I am repeating the mantra:

Quit calling it crony capitalism. Just call it CRONYISM - it's shorter, deletes the unimportant word, focuses on the important one.

It is just the same as crony socialism or crony pflugerism. The issue is the cronyism, and it's the cronyism that causes all the rules of equal justice to break down.

So, let's just say CRONYISM. Never again call it crony capitalism.
