The Bigger Picture: A World of Individual Opportunity - the Vision of Egalitarian Capitalism
Imagine a world in which everyone has a stake in the great tech firms that serve them each day, and where dividends are gradually replacing wages to provide regular income for everyone, as work becomes scarcer as a result of automation? Imagine a world where every young person not only has a small inheritance with which to start their adult life, but also the opportunity to build its value by learning life skills? Simon Rose is taking a well-earned break this week, so we’re taking the opportunity to bring you a talk given Gavin Oldham in August to the leading City of London think-tank Z/Yen.

Christians believe that humans are made in the image of God, and it is therefore only natural that we should explore, marvel at, and continue to unwrap God's technology ..
