And yet capitalism is the only economic system that has proven to deliver growth, helping lift billions out of poverty and the only economic system that continues to create and maintain millions of jobs that keep the global economy running. So how do we fix it? How do we retain the powerful benefits that capitalism can bring and restore its reputation?
