1:31:03
And you will atone!
1:31:08
Am I getting through to you?
1:31:14
You get up on
your little 21-inch screen...

1:31:19
and howl about America
and democracy.

1:31:24
There is no America.
1:31:26
There is no democracy.
1:31:29
There is only IBM and ITT...
1:31:32
and AT&T...
1:31:34
and Du Pont, Dow, Union Carbide...
1:31:38
and Exxon.
1:31:40
Those are the nations
of the world today.

1:31:43
What do you think the Russians
talk about in their councils of state?

1:31:46
Karl Marx?
1:31:47
They get out their
linear programming charts...

1:31:50
statistical decision theories,
minimax solutions and compute...

1:31:53
price-cost probabilities of their
transactions and investments like we do.

1:31:57
We no longer live in a world
of nations and ideologies, Mr. Beale.

1:32:02
The world...
1:32:04
is a college of corporations...
1:32:07
inexorably determined...
1:32:10
by the immutable bylaws
of business.

1:32:15
The world is a business.
1:32:20
It has been since man
crawled out of the slime.

1:32:27
And our children will live,
Mr. Beale...

1:32:33
to see that...
1:32:36
perfect world...
1:32:40
in which there's no war or famine...
1:32:43
oppression or brutality.
1:32:47
One vast and ecumenical
holding company...

1:32:51
for whom all men will work to serve
a common profit...

1:32:56
in which all men will hold
a share of stock...
