Since Marx, the future of capitalism has been a subject of intense debate. Marx and his followers predicted a violent overthrow as the ultimate fate of capitalism, while others believed that it would collapse under its own weight. However, some argue that capitalism will not only persist but also continue to expand globally. This book takes a unique approach by presenting compelling evidence that capitalism has already come to an end.

The author argues that the combination of corporate statutory law, securities laws, and generally accepted accounting principles has led to the extinction of capitalists. Without capitalists as owners of capital, there can be no capitalism. The book delves into the factors that converged to contribute to and hasten the extinction of capitalists, ultimately resulting in the demise of capitalism as an economic system. It exposes the fallacy that capitalism, as an economic system, continues to exist and is expanding globally. In reality, capitalism has reached its end, and the social system built upon it cannot be sustained.

This book will appeal to economists, accountants, historians, political scientists, lawyers, and sociologists, as well as students of these disciplines. It offers a comprehensive analysis of the factors that led to the extinction of capitalism and its implications for our understanding of economic systems and social structures.
