How can we reform capitalism?

Well Jason Hickel & Yanis Varoufakis suggest three key steps:

1. re-engineer finance; penalising investment for destructive private investment & prioritise public investment for public goods;

2. democratise public & private budgeting decisions;

3. democratise corporations; wrest control from the elites & put it in the hands of workers.

Its as simple as that.... well, OK not simple, but you can see what they're getting at!

We can move beyond the capitalist model and save the climate – here are the first three steps | Jason Hickel and Yanis Varoufakis

Capitalism cares about our species’ prospects as much as a wolf cares about a lamb’s. But democratise our economy and a better world is within our grasp, say Jason Hickel and Yanis Varoufakis
