My book review on Amazon. "I read 1/2 the book not knowing if it was fiction or nonfiction. Jacob interviews these type of people and CEOs so it is more than just non-fiction. Wish his parents were ultra - liberals instead of environmental activists, which more fit their description. I wish the final message would have been corporations help more people than Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Robert Reich, Richard Wolff, Kamala Harris, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, et. al. ever will. But nice to read a pro-capitalism book for a change since all the horrible anti-capitalism books only get made into movies. Hope it does get made into a movie." But it has not showed up there yet as Amazon might have a anti-political filter on. To add maybe make Big Rock into a slimy private equity company (which it is) that uses school pensions to steal shares from the small shareholders. Atlas Shrugged is not a good capitalism book, it is more of a pro-feudalism book. Wall Street was more reality, but it is flawed since Gecco would never wreck a profitable company. Companies are never liquidated except in bankruptcy. The only pro-capitalism movie I can really think of is Meet Joe Black, where Anthony Hopkins tries to save his company from raiders.
