George Soros, President of Soros Fund Management (headquartered in USA), Chief Investment Advisor to Quantum Fund, Founder of Open Society Institute:

"The doctrine of laissez-faire capitalism holds that the common good is best served by the uninhibited pursuit of self-interest. Unless it is tempered by the recognition of a common interest…, [our democratic open society] is liable to break down."

[from The Capitalist Threat, George Soros, The Atlantic Monthly, Vol. 279, No. 2, Feb. 1997]
