For decades, it has been easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism. In the decade leading up to the 2008 financial crisis, booming banks, rising house prices, and cheap consumer goods propped up living standards in the rich world. Thirty years of rocketing debt and financial wizardry had masked the deep underlying fragility of finance-led growth, and in 2008 we were forced to pay up.

The Myth of Capitalism tells the story of how America has gone from an open, competitive marketplace to an economy where a few very powerful companies dominate key industries that affect our daily lives. Digital monopolies like Google, Facebook, and Amazon are gatekeepers to the digital world. Amazon is capturing almost all online shopping dollars. We have the illusion of choice, but for most critical decisions, we have only one or two companies when it comes to high speed internet, health insurance, medical care, mortgage title insurance, or even consumer goods like toothpaste.

Financial crises happen time and again in post-industrial economies - and they are extraordinarily damaging.

A Brief History of Doom examines a series of major crises over the past 200 years in the United States, Great Britain, Germany, France, Japan, and China - including the Great Depression and the economic meltdown of 2008.

Publisher's Summary
Learn about the Chinese market with iMinds Money's insightful fast knowledge series. China’s market offers unprecedented opportunities. It contains a population of over 1.3 billion in the world’s second largest and strongest growing economy. Through trade liberalization and the deregulation of its economy China has utilized its low cost labor advantage to dominate world trade in simple manufactured goods. With an average growth of 7-8% over the last decade China has been able to restructure its economy towards higher value added manufactured products. This has resulted in rapid increases in per-capita incomes. These increases may be illustrated by the increased share of electrical machinery, telecom, office machines and metals in China’s export mix at the expense of apparel, textiles, footwear and toys.
While initially driven by export growth, the increase in per-capita incomes has resulted in China’s domestic market becoming the major growth contributor for the first time in 2008. With currently almost 80% of urban households considered poor, this rising income is estimated to bring 300 million households into the middle class by 2025. Already considered “the world’s factory”, this rapidly emerging domestic market is expected to become the driver of world consumption. In order to supply its strong export sector and meet the demands of its domestic economy, China is becoming the key marketplace in the world economy.
Currently, China’s global trade exceeds US$2.1 trillion each year; it imports US$922 billion and exports US$1.19 trillion. The strength of its export sector, particularly in manufacturing, which accounts for 80% of exports, is illustrated by the US$268 billion surplus it holds with the US.

To identify the economic stars of the future, we should abandon the habit of extrapolating from the recent past and lumping wildly diverse countries together.

Story
There are factors that produce immense profits and these occur rarely. Investors stand at a unique point in monetary history where the death of paper currencies on a global scale is taking place before their eyes. Because most are frozen into inside-the-box thinking, few investors will ride the next move as silver (and gold) skyrocket in the years ahead. In fact the primary purpose of this book is to educate the listener as to why there is no way out of the financial morass created by the financial elite.

In The Fiat Standard, world-renowned economist Saifedean Ammous applies his unique analytical lens to the fiat monetary system, explaining it as a feat of engineering and technology just as he did for bitcoin in his global best seller The Bitcoin Standard. This time, Ammous delves into the world's earlier shift from the gold standard to today's system of government-backed fiat money—outlining the fiat standard's purposes and failures; deriving the wider economic, political, and social implications of its use; and examining how bitcoin will affect it over time.

Story
Why do conservatives have such a hard time winning the economic debate in the court of public opinion? Simple, George Gilder says: Conservatives misunderstand economics almost as badly as liberals do. Republicans have been running on tax cut proposals since the era of Harding and Coolidge without seriously addressing the key problems of a global economy in decline. Enough is enough.
