I have no problem calling myself a capitalist. It’s not capitalism per se but a virulent strain of capitalism that has corrupted our govt & highjacked America’s value system. Capitalism, like any public institution, should display ethics & moral consideration for people & planet.

"Investing in employees" is mentioned four times. The article mentions "the constituency that’s truly driving their newfound social activism is their employees"

If Mary's $22M were distributed to 40,000 union employees, wouker wages would rise 26¢ per hour and GM would lose a leader. Yang's UBI will enrich big companies even more because big companies provide wildly popular products and services

You seem unimpressed with a change from shareholder profits to communities and employees. Watch inequality grow with Yang's UBI. The top 1% will benefit from the spending of the bottom 99%

I agree that the wealthy should have less political power. I don't support having the Germany Works laws here in the US

I do not support the government controlling production. I do support diminishing the political power of big companies

I love Marianne. $15/hr is not a living wage. I support teaching financial literacy at all levels of society. I'll let experts advise on GND. So far, there are credible arguments on both sides of GND.

Not sure what system of government/economy you are advocating
Replying to @jessecrall @marwilliamson
I'm ok with taking greed out of the equation. I don't support taking away rewards.

In a collectivist economy, resources cannot be privately owned and exploited for profit. I am confident that innovation in a collective economy ceases to exist. There is much innovation to look forward to. That will end. I don't want a collective economy here in the US
