McNealy on capitalism

The Register interviews Scott McNealy after he stepped down as Chairman of Sun Microsystems. One remark of his caught my eye.

El Reg: Probably more than half of the folks that wish you would do things differently have similar education backgrounds with an MBA from a fancy school.

SM: I went to Harvard and to Stanford and let me tell you, there is nowhere near the diversity of thought at the major education institutions around the world that you might expect.

How can anyone with tenure teach me about capitalism? They’re saying, “I have checked out of capitalism. Now I can teach you about it.” They are so confused.
