        Thanks for posting the link. I heard part of it on my commute in, and was impressed with what you had to say. I look forward to reading the book.

        This guy is a socialist plain and simple. He uses socialist examples like Scandinavia as heroes without mentioning their 60 percent and higher tax rates!! Professionals find no incentives to extra achieve there as it’s treated as punishment through redistribution of wealth......

        1) Companies don't pretend they substitute for govelt w their programs/philanthropy 2) many embrace higher taxes for themselves (Buffett) which govt can use as it sees fit 3) most philanthropy/charity isn't to benefit profits; it's using their skill and wealth to try to do good

        Few politicians run as arsonists saying they can put out the fire. Trump is the exception. The book makes overly broad assumption after assumption. Meanwhile it doesn't acknowledge technology, global competiton and the decline of families hurt the wc
