  I didn't say it, Max Weber did in his defense of Capitalism.
  
  It goes without saying (and by the way I don't think absolute communism is the way either) Capitalism is basis for wonderful things like social mobility and social change, and 'change' is the opposite of 'tradition'
  
  Sorry that this concept throws a spanner in the works of Daily Mail readers (and many Conservatives) but you cant rant on about self-determination at the same time as supporting the royal family; or love traditional village communities and yet support the closure of post offices; or want health care for all and yet think the system should not run at a loss(so get in the private sector to turn a profit); or want traditional craft kept alive at the same time as promoting outsourcing to China!
  
  I know this is political but you can't have your capitalist cake and eat it!
  
  Wedgewood is in the position due to 'change' and people 'voting with their feet' (wetherspoons vs the local etc)
  
  I think the complete loss of wedgewood or waterford crystal would be awful, but that's change, William Morris saw this coming a century ago!
