Want to read an exciting book over the summer and discuss with others? Don't miss this reading circle of the book "Capitalism and the market economy". The book identifies the fundamental flaw of today's capitalism: a system that allows banks to create money out of credit, and provides a concrete action plan to create a more sustainable, democratic and fair economic system. The book is written by Jonathan Mc Millan, pseudonym for a banker from a major international bank and Jürg Müller, director of Avenir Suisse, the largest liberal think tank in Switzerland.
