The Truth About America's Job Market Crisis

Tradd Street Press

"Modern Capitalism, and Other Addresses" is a significant collection of speeches delivered by E. H. H. Simmons, providing a firsthand look into the economic philosophy and financial architecture of the early 20th century. As a prominent figure in the American financial world, Simmons offers a detailed exploration of the evolution of capital markets and the fundamental principles of the capitalist system during a period of robust economic growth. Through these addresses, the author examines the vital role of the stock exchange in national and international commerce, the importance of investment security, and the relationship between finance and industry. The work serves as a primary source for understanding the development of modern economic thought and the logistical operations of the New York financial center prior to the market shifts of the late 1920s. Readers interested in economic history and the history of finance will find "Modern Capitalism, and Other Addresses" to be an insightful examination of the structures that shaped the modern economic era. Simmons' insights provide valuable context for the ideological and practical foundations of the American economic system.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Modern Capitalism, and Other Addresses

Former CEO of CKE Restaurants, Inc. Andrew F. Puzder exposes how the secretive consolidation of financial power under the guise of "ESG" represents a new collectivist threat to the free market. Over the last thirty-five years, asset manager mega-giants BlackRock, State Street, and Vanguard have accumulated unprecedented levels of stock ownership in virtually every major US company. Voting the shares they hold for clients allows these companies to force their own "environmental, social, and governance" or "ESG" agenda on the American corporate sector and, by extension, on all of us.An asset manager's traditional duty is to maximize returns for its investors, but these financial elites expand their duties through "stakeholder capitalism," the idea that a company is responsible not only for its actual shareholders, but for everyone who is affected by the company--which translates to everyone in the community. Thus, they can impose their preferred ESG goals under the guise of benefitting an amorphous group of non-investors--a group that has no say over whether ESG goals actually "benefit" them.This elite-dominated economic system is nothing more than socialism in sheep's clothing. "ESG" defines the champagne socialist agenda that would devastate the working and middle classes globally. Now, in the face of rising opposition, these financial elites are suddenly rebranding--shifting their terminology to conceal their intent.A Tyranny for the Good of its Victims exposes how, although they may abandon the acronym "ESG," these elites have pursued--and will continue to pursue--their ESG goals: to transform our consumer-driven free-market economy into one that is subject to their elitist demands, overriding the will of the people whom they deem incapable of self-government.

The Ugly Truth about Stakeholder Capitalism

A Tyranny for the Good of Its Victims

This book examines the contradictions in the narratives surrounding the post-socialist transition in Eastern Europe. While countries such as Poland and Hungary are hailed as successful transitions to liberal democracies, they are also seen as semi-authoritarian regimes undermining democracy. The book questions what the transition was truly about, challenging the dominant narrative and highlighting the overlooked aspects of society, such as the agency of people and organizations, the ethical resources upon which society and economy are based, and ideas about who we are as human beings. Focusing on organizations and the world of paid work, it uses Poland as a case study to explore the hidden consequences of the transition and its broader relevance for both Eastern Europe and the West.

Common sense says that capitalism is not a human invention. Rather, its a natural law woven into the fabric of life?In a world increasingly divided over economics, politics, and freedom itself, Nature's Capitalism offers a bold new perspective. Drawing from biology, history, philosophy, and personal experience, Eugene L. Bryan observes that every living thing survives through a Nature-based imperative: profit or perish.From the smallest plant to the most complex society, life depends on gaining more than it expends in energy, effort, and resources, Bryan explores how love of life, freedom, and freewill exchanges have fueled humanity's great advances in peace and prosperity. For humans, Nature's capitalism is rooted in its incentives, win-win rewards, and our pursuits of happiness.Blending philosophical insight with practical observations of civilization, economics, and human nature, Nature's Capitalism challenges readers to rethink common assumptions about wealth, inequality, free markets, and social destinies.

Fountainhead of Freedom, Peace, and Prosperity

Nature's Capitalism

"A carefully researched work of intellectual history, and an urgently needed political analysis." --Jane Mayer "[A] scorching indictment of free market fundamentalism ... and how we can change, before it's too late."-Esquire, Best Books of Winter 2023 The bestselling authors of Merchants of Doubt offer a profound, startling history of one of America's most tenacious--and destructive--false ideas: the myth of the "free market." In their bestselling book Merchants of Doubt, Naomi Oreskes and Erik M. Conway revealed the origins of climate change denial. Now, they unfold the truth about another disastrous dogma: the "magic of the marketplace." In the early 20th century, business elites, trade associations, wealthy powerbrokers, and media allies set out to build a new American orthodoxy: down with "big government" and up with unfettered markets. With startling archival evidence, Oreskes and Conway document campaigns to rewrite textbooks, combat unions, and defend child labor. They detail the ploys that turned hardline economists Friedrich von Hayek and Milton Friedman into household names; recount the libertarian roots of the Little House on the Prairie books; and tune into the General Electric-sponsored TV show that beamed free-market doctrine to millions and launched Ronald Reagan's political career. By the 1970s, this propaganda was succeeding. Free market ideology would define the next half-century across Republican and Democratic administrations, giving us a housing crisis, the opioid scourge, climate destruction, and a baleful response to the Covid-19 pandemic. Only by understanding this history can we imagine a future where markets will serve, not stifle, democracy.

How American Business Taught Us to Loathe Government and Love the Free Market

The Big Myth

This is a bold and timely takedown of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) investing, where Sen. Phil Gramm, Terrence Keeley, and a lineup of leading finance voices expose the inefficiencies of ESG, its flawed rating methodologies, and its clash with fiduciary duty, making the case for free markets, capitalism, and impact investing as the path to restoring the Economic Enlightenment and the prosperity it once unleashed. The 18th-century Enlightenment liberated mind, soul, and property. It established the world-changing principle that labor and capital are private property, unleashing unprecedented explosions in work, thrift, and innovation that lifted millions of people out of abject poverty. But the modern-day phenomenon known as environmental, social, and governance (ESG) investing threatens that prosperity. The implicit promise of ESG investing is that you can do well and do good at the same time. Investors presume they can make a market return while lowering carbon emissions or reducing income inequality. However, this seemingly noble pursuit does more harm than good. In Ending ESG and Restoring the Economic Enlightenment, Sen. Phil Gramm and Terrence Keeley bring together a collection of insightful essays considering the many problems with ESG. The authors draw parallels between pre-Enlightenment practices and ESG's mistaken attempt to enrich society by extracting rents from workers, consumers, and capital owners. They explain the inefficiencies of ESG investing, the flaws of ESG rating methodologies, and the conflict between ESG and fiduciary standards. They also show how impact investing is a viable alternative for those who genuinely want their capital to do well and do good. Featuring the writing of Mike Edleson, Alex Edmans, Hester Peirce, Andy Puzder, and Mike Solon, this insightful volume illustrates why ESG is so ineffective and ultimately dangerous. ESG, at its root, is a return to the pre-Enlightenment world, where a self-chosen elite use nondemocratic means to extract the rewards that come from the sweat of the workers' brows and the sacrifice of their thrift. We have seen this drama play out many times before. The sooner we end the ESG experiment, the sooner we can restore the principles that have always allowed humanity to flourish.

Ending Esg and Restoring the Economic Enlightenment

"Why is finance so important? How do stock markets work and what do they really do? Most importantly, what might finance be and what could we expect from it? Exploring contemporary finance via the development of stock exchanges, markets and the links with states, Roscoe mingles historical and technical detail with humorous anecdotes and lively portraits of market participants. Deftly combining research and autobiographical vignettes, he offers a cautionary tale about the drive of financial markets towards expropriation, capture and exclusion. Positioning financial markets as central devices in the organization of the global economy, he includes contemporary concerns over inequality, climate emergency and (de)colonialism and concludes by wondering, in the market's own angst-filled voice, what the future for finance might be, and how we might get there"--

How to Build a Stock Exchange

Are you tired of the empty promises surrounding online income? In a digital landscape saturated with claims of "free money" and effortless wealth, many aspiring online earners find themselves trapped in a cycle of disappointment and minimal returns. The truth is, the vast majority of online income ventures fail, not due to a lack of opportunity, but because they are approached with a hobbyist's mindset rather than a strategic business framework. "Decoding Online Earnings: Beyond The Free Money Myth" cuts through the hype to reveal the fundamental economic principles governing legitimate online income generation. This essential guide challenges the pervasive myth that online earnings are simply "extra cash" or a "side hustle" requiring no serious planning. Drawing a stark parallel to the 80% failure rate of traditional businesses, the book argues that treating online income as anything less than a micro-business is a recipe for predictable failure. It exposes how marketing campaigns often strip away operational realities, presenting only aspirational outcomes and preying on the desire for shortcuts and passive income without active contribution. The internet's perceived anonymity and low barriers to entry amplify these psychological traps, leading individuals to bypass critical due diligence and engage with opaque platforms, often at significant personal and financial risk. "Decoding Online Earnings" reframes your approach, transforming it from a hopeful endeavor into a structured, sustainable operation. It emphasizes that every online transaction involves an exchange of value-your time, your data, your attention, your skills-all commodities that possess inherent worth. Ignoring this fundamental axiom leaves you vulnerable to scams, low-paying opportunities, and wasted effort. The book provides a clear, actionable framework for success, moving beyond the allure of "quick cash" to help you build genuine financial growth. Inside, you will discover how to: - Deconstruct the myth of "free money" and understand the true value exchange in online operations. - Apply strategic business principles, including market research and risk assessment, to your online income pursuits. - Develop a lean business plan to define your product/service, set income targets, and track performance. - Navigate the complexities of platforms like survey panels, maximizing legitimate earnings while mitigating risks like data harvesting and scams. - Diversify your online activities to move beyond supplemental income towards significant financial growth. &gt;Stop chasing illusions and start building a credible, profitable online income stream. "Decoding Online Earnings" equips you with the mindset and tools to transform your online efforts into a legitimate, thriving micro-business, ensuring you operate with clarity, strategy, and confidence in the digital economy.
