Critiquing Capitalism?

I just finished reading "A Critique of Capitalism" by Carter Kaplan, who has written what would appear to advertise itself as a monograph on economics, but is in fact one of Kaplan's Bronson Bodine tales, the type of tale that always packs a lot of story into few pages, and, come to think of it, the Bodine tales often do amount to economic treatises with their wealth of national and international intrigue, but this story confines itself to Bronson's relationship with his father, and an odd-father, at that, for he spends the latter half of his life on earth living in one of the aisles of a discount store, where Bronson also lives on weekends, securing his father's 'visitation' rights, I reckon, but it all comes crashing down on them, one fine morning, when . . .

Sorry, you gotta read the story for that.
