CW 1025 - Doing Capitalism in the Innovation Economy, Reconfiguring the Three-Player Game between Markets, Speculators & the State with Bill Janeway

Jason Hartman starts off the show from Croatia discussing the difference in investing when there are private companies involved versus when the government is involved.

With governments, however, they're much more of a wild card, which can make successfully investing more difficult. Then Jason talks with Bill Janeway, an active venture capitalist, director of Magnet Systems and O'Reilly Media, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Cambridge in America, and author of the recently revised and updated book Doing Capitalism in the Innovation Economy. The two discuss the 3 player game and the government's role on both the supply and demand side of the market, the digital revolution and the coming green revolution.
