Cutifani said that mining should be a “development industry”, but had lost its way. He claims to define capitalism’s purpose as being “to support the desires of society to achieve the ends they want to achieve”, which makes business sound like one big very appealing NGO. “Capitalism is not a dirty word,” he reminded his presumably resolutely capitalist audience. “But we must never lose perspective that that [supporting the desires of society] is our duty.”
