- To Reimagine America, we must reimagine capitalism. Capitalism has been extraordinarily successful over the past two centuries at raising human living standards, life expectancy and life satisfaction. But the old way is not working any more. The world has changed so much and people have evolved so rapidly that we need to bring a higher level of consciousness to the world of business. When we do so, the results can be astonishing.
"About TEDx:
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
very very crisp Presentation with a very good perspective. Sreenivasu Nalagandla
controlling the population efficiently by threat of violence DOES NOT mean it is the most peaceful time in history! it just means the vast majority has learned not to fight back!
Human source! I love this concept and it is very true!
Fabulous, I love this premise!
The degree of rampant knee-jerk reactionism in the comments section is startling, but not unexpected. Most of them involve either impractical amounts of idealism or revulsion. Honestly, I'd think the steady, sustainable shifting of capitalism toward a state more inherently compatible with humanity would be seen as ideal.
" Nothing can raise a country's productivity except technology , and technology is the final product of a complex of sciences ( including philosophy ) , each of them kept alive and moving by the achievements of a few independent minds ."
More people have been pulled out of poverty at the expense of the working middle class. Private banking policies shift the money being created from the lower 80% the richest 20%. So as more money supply expands for everyone, a higher % of the Money supply continues to be siphoned to the top. It is designed to be that way. It grows monopolies, allows private owners of limited natural resources, and gives private corporations power over the people and needs of society as a whole.
I'm about to hear the talk with Sadhguru so I had to look him up!!
Wow, that was an awesome talk. Nice flow.
I do not agree with the monetary system though, no matter the social system.
The use of money reinforces people to be competitive. Not cooperative.
Then people can't trust each other.
This was very inspiring. Thank you for sharing your insights
" Even though distorted by a mixed economy, the essential demands of legitimate economic groups are not arbitrary : a businessman cannot run his business at a loss, a worker cannot continue working if he cannot meet his expenses. "
I think the flaw in this argument is that the speaker assumes that the human condition would NOT have improved without Capitalism..... but the sad truth about any system is that if it is initiated - there is no way of ever seeing how things would have been under a different system... It is Naive to assume that the current system has created better conditions than an alternate system MAY have.
This a magnificent and fascinating tale of accomplishment since for it to be true you have to ignore the genocide of the natives of what was to become North America as well as the destruction of African, Chinese, Asian and other cultures. One has to go to great lengths to ignore the poverty created, death and horror of the slave trade to suggest the success of "capitalism"; only an idiot would make such shorted sighted comments in the face of the facts. This lecture is a fool's folly.
With capitalism, when a trade is being performed, both sides believe they are benefiting by the trade. I think it is morally wrong to perform a trade if you think the other side isn't really benefiting even though they think they are. We have to be conscious of the others benefits.
Wow! Great thought teaching here.
Increase in IQ rate doesn't mean becoming advanced in materialism. It actually means to becomes more conscious of our ourselves. Seeing total reality means seeing that there are four real problems(Birth, Old-age, Disease and Death), which nobody can eradicate on material activities. It can done by becomes conscious of our nature, our true self!
Good job Dad :)

I agree that capitalism is the greatest monetary system in the history of the world, and that it has lifted more people out of poverty in the last 200 years than any other system could or will ever do. However, American capitalism was founded when America had a moral foundation. As American morality collapses, so does it's ability to provide the world with prosperity. The only system of morality that makes morality possible is one that is Universal, Unchanging, and Ultimate in authority.
