Are any of you actually going to read all 700 pages of Capital in the 21st Century?

[Insensitive]

I can't put this on my Nook can I?

epub should work on the nook.
I know it works on mines.
-edit-
No sure which Nook you've got or if they're different
from the V1's but if they all behave similar then it should
work if you just copy it into the "my documents" folder

I guess i've been slipping. Whats this?

judging by your general comments on minimum wage and the poor, something that will make you very when you read it

I don't hate the poor, but in a nation as VAST as the united states, raising the minimum wage doesn't help everyone.

These arguments don't sit well with.

i support increases, to a point.

Picked up the book today.

 

[tru_m.a.c]

considering I have over 200 other books on backlog.....

I made it through the majority of the book, reading it off and on over the past few years, and I have honestly enjoyed it quite a bit.

Piketty makes some keen observations, and is a pretty strong writer.

Wealth inequality will only continue.

I was going to sit down and try to finish this over the next two weeks but I think it might be best to space it out.

Nap been on his "I don't hate the poor I just hope they all die" tip for damn near 6 years.

What a sad, sad man.

I did read it when it dropped though, I should re-read it but my backlog is long enough as it is with recommendations that I'll probably never get around too it. It's a good primer to understand the depths to which we've sunk as a society and how more Capitalism is not the solution, but the final nail in the coffin.

 

[re'up]

I read a lot of it in 2014, but I had to keep taking notes and re reading parts, it's been years now, but the impressions remain the same. The system is entrenched and unchanging, unless serious, (unlikely) levels of change occur.

Khan Academy already got a class on it

Capital by Thomas Piketty

 

[phcitywarrior]

I started reading it in college but didn't finish. Once I finish "Grit" by Angela Duckworth and these two books on the Nigerian Economy by Ngozi Okonjo Iweala, I may try to pick this back up.

I've definitely fallen off when it comes to reading. I used to read like an animal back then. 30 books in a single year

My mind was so sharp...I'll be back

One page at a time.
