I would love to hear a dialogue between her and Herb Gintis. Awe inspiring insights nevertheless.

Perhaps one way to revise the capitalist system is to buy capitalist systems and lands to change them into non-profit charitable systems. However, how and who can do this if capitalistic corporations possess the bulk of the wealth needed to make such change? We need a larger sort of anti-monopoly regulation if capitalism and its wealth blocks off alternative systems from developing. I am enjoying Dr. Fraser's chapter from her new book.

The following sentiment, in particular, resonates with me, paraphrasing: After reparations for capitalism's damage, socialism must not allow any "free-riding". No free-riding on labor, care work, nature, or public goods.
Wow, what does that new world look like? How does it really work? I aspire to create and live in that world, hopefully in my own lifetime.
