MITIGATION

And a new film has been or is about to be released concerning the alleged attempt by Ford Motor Company to steal an invention from its creator.

We have no idea if the premise is true.

If it is true, it would seem that the spirit of the old Robber Barons still lives.

If it is not true, than the spirit of the anti-capitalists still lives.

We know, of course, that both spirits still live.

And more importantly, we know that the Barons mitigated the evil they did with lots of good that they did, and that the good the anti-capitalists have done is mitigated by lots of evil which they have done.
