J.P. Morgan was an example of this because he used his money to influence the government to stabilize American financial markets during several economic crises, but when he has done this, he has faced criticism of people saying he had too much power and was accused of manipulating the nation’s financial system for his own. The way the businessmen used their wealth to influence the government was very unfair because of how there were not as many people that were wealthy than very poor, so the wealthy people had a really high advantage on what they would do. In the article “Business of America” the author stated “They amassed fortunes that funded palatial mansions and elaborate lifestyles. In addition, they influenced the government toward policies that favored business” (Doc C). This quote meant what i said before, that when the businessmen used their money to bribe the government, they would do anything for men and make any decision they want just for themselves.

Now the worst part about all these big businesses was Social Darwinism. It claimed that those who were rich, were rich due to their genes. Those who were poor, were poor due to their genes. This caused a rift between the people of America, as the wealthy began to look down on the poor, and treated them as lesser humans. This did not stop people like Eugene Debs, and Mother Jones, infact it just made them push harder
Social Darwinism is when only the strongest survive, during the Gilded Age this was true. Many businessmen during the time period were people who had a vision and invested time and effort to grow the economy they did what they had to do to make their company survive the economy. Some people's business did not survive because the bigger corporations took them out of business, the business that did not survive are were weak and were not strong enough to survive. It is not the bigger business fault it did not survive, the business did not survive because it could not compete with the competition. Social Darwinism is huge reason why the great industrialist are Captains of Industry.
BEING PROGRAMMED TO BELIEVE THAT BUSINESS IS BAD: Have you been programmed to believe that business is bad, that money is evil?

After all, only the strongest survive. It’s a rule of nature however, Some Capitalists use their wealth to hurt others and out-compete competition. As a result, Capitalism causes many other issues in society, such as: Racism, inequality of all kinds, and discrimination. As Muldoon reviewed a book called Capitalism in America: A History “The authors examine the current state of our capitalist system. “The looks at people who have shaped our economy as well, with a focus on how these players contributed to the driving force of creative destruction, which the authors argue is a key component of productivity growth and innovation.
However, rent-seeking behavior is not just confined to practices that help maintain a financial hegemony. In “The Mega-Marketing of Depression” by Ethan Watters and “Biographies of Hegemony” by Karen Ho, corporations actively sought to shape the cultural viewpoints of consumers in order to grow their profits and prestige. In their greed-filled pursuit of the dollar, corporations and financial firms were causing the homogenization of cultures and people by changing their conceptions of what equated better health, education/career, and true innovation. These corporations have established an economic and cultural hegemony over their target consumer group, a hegemony on multiple scales, with each level bolstering the next. The rent seeking behavior carried out by corporations has overarching consequences on society that lead to the widening of the gap of inequality between rich and poor and the formation of a hegemony that poses a threat to all members of society
Along with parallels in the rise of technology, the sensationalism in media, and the economic consequences of the two it is my belief that we have entered into a second gilded age. Today we can see our economic situation becoming more and more “gilded”, that is on the outside there is grand technological, medical, and societal progress, however, looking deeper, we can find a darker underbelly of our social and political reality. As in the gilded age, the focus of concern is a disparity of power and wealth. According to Forbes (Adams) only 18% of people trust business leaders to do the right thing and only 15% trust business leaders to tell the truth. These statistics shows a great divide between those who have power in today’s society and their reputation as honest and hardworking people.

Within the psychology of distrust there lies a point where your own personal opinion of a topic that is ingrained within your core beliefs or morals is challenged with what the mind perceives as ample evidence the brain goes on the defensive and rejects all idea opposite to what it feels is its own this is known as a backfire effect (M.Smith How Can the Use of Reverse Psychology Backfire?) and when this happens there is a point where the brain cannot trust itself. While working for big businesses both have developed a major distrust in corporations as a whole. This could come from the basic need to have a scapegoat in situations where you feel wronged (Nyhan, Brendan, and Jason Reifler. “When Corrections Fail: The Persistence of Political Misperceptions.”).
The earlier opinion stated that a business cannot be ethical, but this opinion is not used anymore in the modern business. Today business has belief that they must be responsible for social since they live and operate within a social structure.
