Great chapter on short-termism. Lots of info on the inner-workings of companies and why US companies should focus more on long-term growth.

Is it depressing reading a book about the still-rippling effects of a conservative president, this week, when the world already feels like it will end? Sure, but chapter 5 had a lot of good information about companies, priorities, and shifts in political parties.

Some good history in Chapter 4.

Have a new process for reading this because it's an important book that should be read, but Gawd is it dense. Gonna read a chapter between novels. Chapter 3 contained a lot of useful information on the history of capitalism and describes the point at which the US went wrong. I'm interested in learning more.
