As I’ve written elsewhere: The cartoon is funny, but wrong. If by “capitalism” they mean the free market, then big business is ALWAYS against it, in good times and bad — and if by “capitalism” they mean the regime of state-granted corporate privilege, then big business is ALWAYS for it. Only one setting. See http://tinyurl.com/5mcfod

Rod is basically right. I’m not sure that “big business” is ALWAYS for or against anything…maybe “almost always” would be better.
True enough — all generalisations are wrong.
