Welcome to the Midcoast Senior College course, Saving Capitalism. Capitalism as you and I knew it has been under a steady attack by many factors. We will explore the causes for the decline of capitalism for all and the changes needed to bring about a form of capitalism that serves everyone.
It would help if you could read the Introduction, pages 1 to 47 and explore some of the resources cited on this blog.
My name is Frank Broadbent and I am well read in this area, but by no means an expert. I expect to learn a great deal from those of you who are participating - after all we all have been around for quite a while and have much knowledge, expertise, and wisdom to share.
Looking forward an exciting six sessions.
We will be looking at a lot of problems and negative articles so I think you should read the following article: http://www.nytimes.com/2016/05/15/opinion/sunday/when-did-optimism-become-uncool.html?utm_source=pocket&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=pockethits&_r=0
