    Just finished this, I'd love to know what others thought if they have. It's occasionally a bit jargontastic but well written and made a lot of sense.

    Before anyone shouts commie, the general gist is that democracy and capitalism are vital to each other, but not in their current forms.

    Martin Wolff is the FT's chief economics commentator and the blurb says he's as likely as anyone to be read by political and business leaders. And some twat on QBN.

    • Sounds like more of the same "it's not capitalism, it's corporatism" apologetics.i_monk
    • It's not that. The deterioration of democracy has coincided the excesses of modern capitalism and they both need adjusting, is the gist.MrT
    • If you think Trump or Johnson were good for politics and share buybacks are the best use of company profits then you'll be challenged.MrT
