Fixing what is broken in capitalism and Nepal
In this Wall Street Week, David Westin talks about capitalism being under scrutiny and protests in Nepal
Welcome to the Wall Street Week newsletter, bringing you stories of capitalism about things you need to know, but even more things you need to think about. I’m David Westin, and this week we told the story of capitalism under scrutiny in the wake of the great financial crisis and of social media bringing down the government in Nepal.
