Karpov On Chess

--- Karpov

Have you not been following the scandalous and all this other rubbish in the chess world?

Chess needs to be run like a business. These people just don't get it. Fide, CFC, Uscf, all the same horrible stuff. If they were "real" companies in competition they would be in the gutter within the first few years.
