Listen Later

Our economy isn’t working.

It’s built on lies: the myth of growth, the myth that profit comes before people, and the myth that wealth is more important than fairness.

If we want a sustainable society, we need a new moral code for the economy.

In this video, I set out ten commandments for a just economy - principles that put people before profit, justice before greed, and sustainability before growth.

These commandments demand:

  • People before profit
  • Fair rewards for work
  • Inclusion, not exclusion

  • Fair taxation
  • Transparency and accountability
  • Measuring what really matters
