CHAPTER

The Problems of Capitalism and the Advantages of It

Capitalism has its problems. But one thing it does is while it's concentrating capital, it also makes things more efficient. How do you split the problems that capitalism brings with the advantages that it does have? It's a very good question. And the answer always is regulation. I want to see far more of our economy directed into the commons. If there was a billboard outside your house, what message would you put on it? Private sufficiency, public luxury. There's not enough ecological space as well. So we can have our own private suiciency, our own small domain at home but if we want luxury, we do it together. That was a fascinating conversation. Thanks for coming
