Freedom or Equality
Freedom or Equality introduces a straightforward, modern, and comprehensive approach to our economy that encourages saving, investment, and innovation. The next decades will present numerous challenges: exponentially accelerating technology and the use of robots, an aging population, repressive taxation, and the sustainability of education and health care costs. Freedom or Equality addresses those challenges while presenting a fresh examination of Social Capitalism—a moderate option between extreme solutions of all sorts that can deliver superior growth and prosperity worldwide.
