Re: The FLAW & HOW TO FIX CAPITALISM

January 4th, 2019, 11:48 am

I certainly welcome recommended reading on free banking and capitalism fixing "captialism".There seems to be a renewed interest in free banking & private currencies. Perhaps new possibilities with the advent of new technology.

Free banking & private currencies was the topic that otherwise likeminded free market folk disagreed on - Hayek, Friedman, Mises etc - concepts like limited liability provide pretty interesting thought experiments too.

So seems a worthy thread for some healthy disagreement on the Wilmott forums!

The problem with capitalism is that it leads to economic growth, innovation, longer lifespans and more free time so that socialists can tweet all day long about how bad it is.
