According to Yevgeny Bugaev's book, the essence of capitalist morality is individualism, careerism, worship of the monied and contempt for penniless.

Capitalism cripples people morally and humiliates their dignity.


Socialists or communists promote moral views which express the interests and ideals of all working humankind. Socialists believe that working man’s nature is originally devoid of loafer, mercenary, and hooligan instincts.
