Expert Quote

“Ever since the New Deal, conservative advocates of ‘free enterprise’ have stressed the absolute centrality of business autonomy, free from government dictates, as the essence of economic and political freedom in the United States. They also encouraged business leaders to become more active in the political arena, consistently decrying their ‘passivity.’”
