درباره این اپیزود
What if the richest people in society could literally buy their way out of every problem while everyone else gets left behind? In this episode, Alex Romano breaks down philosopher Michael Walzer's bold solution to capitalism's biggest flaws - and it's not what you'd expect.
On Curious Machines, we explore Walzer's theory that money should have limits, just like political power does. You'll discover why wealthy families are 7 times more likely to get their kids into elite colleges, how the top 1% controls 40% of political donations, and what happens when private healthcare costs 3x more than universal systems. Romano walks through Walzer's "Spheres of Justice" concept and explains why his 1983 ideas about economic constitutionalism are suddenly everywhere in 2024. This isn't anti-capitalism - it's about making capitalism actually work for everyone.
