Summary
We started this book by acknowledging the severe crisis that capitalism faces. In the eyes of millions of citizens, it’s a rigged game. Corporations exist to line the pockets of executives and investors, paying scant attention to worker wages, customer welfare or climate change. Those lucky enough to be running businesses or investment funds see no need to change, as they’re protected by market power, and can further entrench themselves by lobbying. Even worse, many see no responsibility to change, as they delude themselves that their social responsibility is to maximise profits.
