Wealth’s Way: The Wisdom and Wonders of Shareholder Capitalism
Thomas Sowell has written that “Profits are perhaps the most misconceived subject in economics.” Join Ed and Ron as we explore R. David McLean’s superb new book, The Case for Shareholder Capitalism: How the Pursuit of Profit Benefits All. Rooted in mutual benefit and prosperity, shareholder capitalism fosters an environment where individuals thrive. Shareholder capitalism upholds the belief that profit serves as a catalyst for societal progress, driving innovation and growth. Contrary to misconceptions, shareholder capitalism prioritizes long-term value creation over short-term gains. We will contrast shareholder capitalism with stakeholder capitalism, emphasizing the importance of clear accountability and benefits for all stakeholders. The transformative power of shareholder capitalism in shaping a world where prosperity knows no bounds is wonderous. Join us on this journey of discovery, where profit paves the way for a world of flourishing for all.
