How To Be An Anti-Capitalist


Listen Later

Capitalism has transformed the world, sure. But at what cost? (Immense environmental ones, of course.)


Americans, it's high-time we accept that the Golden Age of capitalism is long gone. On today's show: A frank discussion with sustainable finance visionary Kara Perez about insulating ourselves from late-stage capitalism's most damaging effects with individual and collective action.

 

Here's a preview:

[6:00] Money is a tool for change, and yet it's literally something we made up

[11:00] Can we be nickled and dimed even more than we already are? (Spoiler alert: Yes.)

[14:00] A few of the ways in which shareholder capitalism limits society's ability to progress

[22:00] Tangible ways you and I can "change the flow of money"
