Über dieses Hörbuch

A straightforward, modern, and comprehensive approach to our economy that encourages saving, investment, and innovation-leveraging capitalism's benefits to improve opportunities for everyone rather than a select few. Capitalism offers greater prosperity and opportunity for everyone, while socialism, unnecessary interventionism, and other choices inevitably fail. But capitalism is quickly falling out of favor with the middle class in the Western world. Fortunately, it can be fixed. The next decades will present numerous challenges: exponentially accelerating technology and use of robots, an aging population, repressive taxation, and the sustainability of education and health care costs-to name just a few. Freedom or Equality addresses those challenges while presenting a fresh examination of Social Capitalism-a moderate option between extreme solutions of all sorts that can deliver superior growth and prosperity worldwide.
