Abstract
"When I hear businessmen speak eloquently about the "social responsibilities of business in a free-enterprise system," I am reminded of the wonderful line about the Frenchman who discovered at the age of 70 that he had been speaking prose all his life. The businessmen believe that they are defending free enterprise when they declaim that business is not concerned "merely" with profit but also with promoting desirable "social" ends; that business has a "social conscience" and takes seriously its responsibilities for providing employment, eliminating discrimination, avoiding pollution and whatever else may be the catchwords of the contemporary crop of reformers. In fact they are–or would be if they or anyone else took them seriously–preaching pure and unadulterated socialism. Businessmen who talk this way are unwitting puppets of the intellectual forces that have been undermining the basis of a free society these past decades" ["Cuando oigo a los hombres de negocios hablan con elocuencia acerca de las "responsabilidades sociales de las empresas en un sistema de libre empresa ", me acuerdo de la maravillosa línea sobre el francés que descubrió a la edad de 70 que había estado hablando en prosa toda su vida. Los empresarios creen que están defendiendo la libre empresa cuando declaman que los negocios no se refiere " únicamente " con fines de lucro , sino también con la promoción deseable "social" fines; que las empresas tienen una "conciencia social" y se toma en serio sus responsabilidades en la creación de empleo , la eliminación de discriminación, evitando la contaminación y cualquier otra cosa que puede ser las consignas de la cosecha actual de los reformadores . De hecho, son - o serían si ellos o alguien más les tomaron en serio - predicando el socialismo puro y sin adulterar. Los hombres de negocios que hablan de esta manera son títeres involuntarios de las fuerzas intelectuales que han estado socavando la base de una sociedad libre de las últimas décadas"]
