Capitalists are questioning capitalism and still growing richer day by day.

As a fellow human being I’ve always had a problem with the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer, a society that condones one man worth billions living in a obscene mansion while another sleeps under a bridge in a cardboard box...... A society that struggles to pay teachers meager wages while professional athletes are payed millions without protest, perhaps we all should re-evaluate our priorities???

Its not dying, just being reformed to reflect the issues of our time

old capitalist mantra; *Greed is GOOD* 2:20 new capitalist mantra; *Business mind - Social Heart*

It will die once automation takes over all industries.

CNBC: Is capitalism dying? Also CNBC: Would you like to watch an ad to make us money?

Yea right capitalism is dying. Just look at those East Asian countries lol

When 5percent owns the resources of 95 percent of the society things definitely need to change.

One of two things will happen in the long run: 1- Either capitalism is drastically changed 2- It will be replaced with new economic ideas

Short answer given at the end of the video: NO, Capitalism is not dying.

Yes, I believe capitalism is dying, everything has sell by date. Capitalism is so cruel , it leaves out the homeless the poverty stricken and the poor, and creates this 1 percent and99 percent society where by we have extreme wealth inequality .

as long as being greedy is still allowed by the law to be the best way to get rich, these ideas of 'inclusive capitalism' will only remain ideas

George Westinghouse. A capitalist who values and respects the workers and the people who helped him achieve what he had. We need capitalists like him.

I think the US is on the decline as an economy, we have gone so far with greed that it's economic system has corrupted itself

Bernie isn't anti-capitalist. He just wants to move closer towards EU / CA / AU model in terms of compassionate social policies

I wish there was a way people could mesh Capitalism and socialism together or create a modified socialism. I feel like societies could live happily like that.

The Earth is dying cronyism and corporation rise

1: Capitalism is not the problem. Corporatism is. 2nd: people may understand what capitalism is but do they actually understand how it works?

If you look at Switzerland, Finnland or Denmark, they are doing just fine. It's because they have a strong social system, but are still capitalistic.

"Is capitalism dying?" - Lenin entered the chat

Ahh yes The Rise and Fall of empires... Enjoy it while it lasts boys!

As resources become limited with each passing day: Capitalism needs to evolve and make transition to more controlled, socially responsible and environmentally sustainable form in order to stay in the game.

6:19 the problem with people is that they are not aware of their actions. That includes myself.

2 thousand billionaires own more money than 4 billion people in the world. I dont know if capitalism is falling apart, but I know something is wrong.

Why was Adam Smith not mentioned as the founding father of capitalism?

No,it never die

The problem isn’t capitalism, it’s corporate greed.

Socialism, Communism, Capitalism, it all ends the same way, a few people owning a lot of shit. So always remember behind every system, is a person who is human, making thins turn.

No, it's no dying, but it's definitely going to change dramatically in the future

It''s feudalism with a different name.

The boarder of where the government begins and free enterprise end is slowly eroding away with the rise of companies too big to fail and state capitalism (government owning or influencing key for profit businesses like in China)

3:46 dont talk about india . India failed and had highest poverty when it was a socialist country. Im an Indian

I will never understand why CEOs and other heads of these big brands get paid so much. What's wrong with a $100k salary? Those millions could be used to give bonuses to your workforce which would in turn boost the economy.

Not dying but its creating massive inequality and fixed, unfair markets.

Funny that billionaires and millionaires are critizing Capitalism Very funny

Dead for middle class in India.

Capitalism is the best system. There will always be the rich, middle class, and poor. The good thing is that new companies want to target the middle class and poor more than the rich which leads to better technology at a cheaper price. There are probably less poor people with the internet and technological advancements. ( United States at least). Here in the United States we can't even handle social security right and they want to tackle everything else ? Really? Capitalism is good the way it is now. Unfortunately not everyone can be middle class and up but that's in any system

oh no im starting to hear the soviet theme

Capitalism has allowed my CEO to make over $20m last year.

I'm originally from a Communist/Socialist country, and the day the US stops being Capitalist is the day we go down. Capitalism lifts more people out of poverty, even the many "poor" people in the US are still considered rich by world standards... In a Capitalist society if you work hard you can always lift yourself off, in my country doctors make the same as taxi drivers, which leads to doctors migrating or working in other fields to make more money

yes finally capitalists started to understand what Karl Marx said 150 years ago.... most of things arent new. it has been known since Das Kapital.

The part about "Shareholder value" and Milton Friedman is wrong. That idea was conceived in 1919 in "Dodge v. Ford Motor Company. That's why people don't trust the media you don't do proper research.

There needs to be a balance between the objectives of a company and the concern for the labour force, environment and overall inequality in nations.

I do see inequality but because of technology leverage, an increase in jobs but with the pay remaining low as ever to minimum as possible, and because of lack both leadership and clarity in the youth.

Capitalism is dying? Good

all the jargons, in the end, the following is still true, the rich get richer, the climate is dying, basic needs like food and even clean water will get scare and possibly more expensive.

Ultimate destination of every country is Communism at a strategic dynamics. If the world leans much on capitalism the economic disparity never ends. The Chinese version of capitalism can be translated to Communism 2.0 which by the sense to convey that most of the chinese corporate organizations are backed by their government. This indeed promotes the confidence within their general public that we are not alone and there is high hand to raise them up from their current situations and thereby influences and increases spending power of general public.

What is the alternative?

Really well-done general explainer -- thank you. We need a mixed economy -- capitalism and socialism both. Capitalism's "true north" is profit, it's up to us (society) to build (and enforce) the guardrails to keep the capitalists honest, the environment thriving, and society itself as fair as possible. Without rules & regs & fair taxation, capitalism will just do what it does -- make incredible profit for the few.

Venezuela, cuba and north korea says hi

1:39 the legendary station wagon

Real chage from the existing form of life will come about when the important people in such a society as this, that is the richest people, feel unsatisfied and decide to change it. Change always come from above

And Warrant Buffett partner Charlie strongly advocate for capitalism

“It is not capitalism failing us, it is capitalists failing us” J. Bougle

I think it has to do with the increase in governmental influence and control worldwide over the years. Also, there are too many too powerful monopolies. This could lead to corporate fascism. The rapid automation of many jobs is definitely gonna transform capitalism. Idk if it’ll be for the better or the worst.

Does the world have have any other economic policies?

Capitalism isn't dying. We are.

I am from a third world country and totally support capitalism. It's not perfect, but this is the best we can get.

So how CNBC will survive (on youtube) ?

Thank you for the video.

Keynes stated that by 2030, A new form of capitalism will emerge something that is beyond capitalism, maybe these are the classical signs of it and maybe we should get ready to embrace it.

If working never die, capitalism will never die.

Clickbait Title, all the video is about transitioning from Shareholder Capitalism to Stakeholder Capitalism.... At the end she says that Capitalism is not dying but evolving.

Though technical cooperation is important, structural change should be the force that reconstructs our domestic and international economic system. That doesn’t mean completely ignoring private sector parties and market forces, though. It means holding them accountable through modification of political and social worlds.

I hope not

A social democracy is key. We need the govt to keep check on the overpowered lobbyists as opposed to the lobbyists having the govt in check. As of now there is no SOE but a enterprise owned state.

They didn't ask my opinion of Capitalism. If they had, they would have gotten an extremely positive review!

State ownership doesn’t do away with capitalism

Give the workers a seat on the company board.

Until a worker-owner dichotomy is broken, the dialectics will always enact. Proletarian revolution please :)

Why everybody is focusing on the bad side and not most good side.

It is down to a simple question: is the market mechanism more efficient at allocating resources than a central authority. It is widely accepted that the market is. That said it is also well understood that a pure market economy is imperfect. That is why we need regulation. In terms of short term vs long term, governments have a key role in this through tax incentives and other support schemes. For example ROCs/CfD to incentivise large renewable energy projects in the UK. Whether politics moves more left or right does obviously impact the level of inequality but going fully left is just as bad as going fully right. I did love that in Ireland that people who don’t pay their share of tax get published in a newspaper. Good old peer pressure

Spoiler: no is not. It’s thriving and more awesome by the hour.

Short answer: No Long answer: it’s better than ever, so... No.

Luckily here in Slovenia (according to Gini index) we are doing more then well against diff. between wealthy and poor people. Which is how it should be if we want to improve civilization overall.

GREAT VIDEO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I prefer the term evolving rather than dying.

It is very simple really. Too much money is held in stocks instead of in the actual economy All these companies convert all their tax breaks into buying more shares. Money that can in stocks should be limited Money needs to be invested in beneficial things eg loans for small businesses Even governments and Schools use their excess funds from endowments to build a stock portfolio

Yes , all in ur mind

Sounds like exactly what Yang is proposing

Your forgetting that states have provided massive subsidies to help corporate profits, especially in the oil and gas industries.

There's definitely going to be a change, capitalism with its constant need to grow can't be sustained forever

*CNBC tells me capitalism is dying.* *proceeds to get a Dominos add and a an add for Verizon.*

What is the alternative? Cooperation. It is not capitalism, it is not socialism, it is not communism. It is shared ownership and responsibility. Everyone has a double roll: working in the cooperation and owning a part in it. I saw it first, then I heard about it. It was a huge supermarket in Spain. Erosky, i think is the name, and thhey are everywhere. It was something different about employers, that i never saw in other big stores, and remember telling my man that they come over different, act like owners of a small store, not employers of a huge company. Few months later i saw a documentary about Mandragor, little village in north Spain that embraced cooperation as way to do, and grew enormously in 30-40 years, having industry, retail, banks, even university now, organizing everything as cooperation. One of their business was this supermarket chain. They were hit by the last crisis too, because their customers and sypliers suffered or went bankrupt, but not nearly that much like the rest of the world. Their banks didn't participate in risky investments, for example, and the bank cao said:" my family, friends, what would they say to me if i do that with their savings?" So, after globalisation, where what you do for profit impact people on the other part of the world, people that you don't care for we have to organise our activities so we can see the impact of our activities. Our brain is developed that way, i assume, that we can really care only for our direct surroundings, and maybe we have to take that in account when we organise our lives and means.

it's time to start a whole new life in another planet.

Socialist: it has started 💃💃

The Future of Capitalism by Paul Collier is a great read on this subject.

1:32 Guangzhou

In soviet russia capitalism running away 😂

I’m sure since CNBC has become so liberal recently that they might need to have a refresher course on capitalism... so that was interesting!

Nice report by Timothyna

I like that idea of Stakeholder Capitalism. It addresses both the fact that people pursuing their own self interest stimulates an economy most (since who doesn't put their own well-being first), while also addressing the fact that personal well-being ultimately relies on collective well-being. One's unlikely to stay healthy in a sick world, for example. This overcomes the demotivation of socialism and the extractive destruction of the predatory, narrowly focused capitalism that currently dominates. The Social Democrats have some good additional points though. It is also important for taxes to be used to buy the things that are needed collectively instead of leaving that to the profit seekers. Education, public transportation, and healthcare to me fall within that sphere, as does national defense and interstate highways. The US is falling a little short on the first 3 of those 5.

It’s been dying for a long time now. Frankly I’m surprised that it’s survived for so long even with all the horrors of it apparent. But democratic socialism is still capitalism so...

To everybody who is thinking: „Oh yes, we need to overcome capitalism!“ Does capitalism has its problems? Sure, but it is the best we could have! Think twice when looking at „alternative“ systems. *Look at the way people vote with their feet before you judge which system gives them better conditions.* Is it that people move from capitalist systems to Venezuela and Cuba? Or is it might the other way around? Make up your own mind. Think twice.

The biggest US cities and counties to have gone bankrupt San Bernardino, California: more than $1 billion in debt Two months after Stockton filed for bankruptcy it was followed by San Bernardino in August 2012. Though this southern California city had a slightly smaller population it carried much more debt. Notable for being home to the first ever McDonald’s restaurant, San Bernardino’s economy relies heavily on services including government, retail and restaurants. Like Vallejo, a 1994 naval base closure cost the city some 10,000 jobs and sparked an economic downturn. The housing crash had a significant effect on the city’s ability to collect revenue. Debt from pension and other retirement benefits had been mounting. As part of the city’s bankruptcy plan retirement health care was cut, but not pensions, though city contributions dropped. San Bernardino also decided to end its city-run fire and emergency services and use the county's instead, with an estimated pension cost savings of $65.6 million over the next 20 years. By 2016 the city had cut nearly half of its full-time employees from 1,140 to approximately 600. Other changes included contracting out services for a soccer complex, street sweeping and solid waste collection. San Bernardino exited bankruptcy in 2017 and estimates it has cut $350 million in spending over the next 30 years. However, it notes that the costs related to bankruptcy will reach at least $25 million, primarily due to the costs of legal and financial professionals. Orange County, California: at least $1.5 billion debt Well-known in pop culture as the setting for television shows such as The O.C., this suburban Los Angeles county made up of 34 cities and towns was not suffering from an economic downturn when it declared bankruptcy in 1994. In fact, the county's debt was generated by a series of risky investments made by county treasurer Robert Citron based on advice from investment management firm Merrill Lynch, which encouraged the inexperienced investor to follow a high-risk strategy. When it came to light in 1994 the Public Policy Institute of California called it an “enormous gamble with public funds" and labeled Citron as "seriously under-qualified." Why? He had purchased derivatives and other debts, which fell prey to the Federal Reserve Board increasing interest rates, and left Orange County at least $1.5 billion in debt. In November 1994 auditors told county officials that Citron had lost the county a serious amount of money. This led to his resignation and the county sued Merrill Lynch. The Los Angeles Times later reported how Citron relied on a “mail order astrologer and a psychic” for interest rate predictions. But the events had much wider ramifications, and the county was forced to lay off workers, freeze new hires and make severe cuts to the budget. In July 2017 Orange County made its last bond payment related to the bankruptcy. Jefferson County, Alabama: $4.2 billion debt Home to Alabama’s most populated city, Birmingham, this county filed bankruptcy in 2011 following a sewer scandal. In the 1990s county officials launched an overhaul of the entire sewer system in Jefferson County, a construction project that was supposed to create jobs while improving the area’s aging sewer infrastructure. However, two major problems relating to the project’s financing put the county in crippling debt - the largest amount ever for a municipal bankruptcy filing at the time.

News channel should not be allowed to be privately owned.

We've seen just the start. Wait till artificial intelligence takes away jobs like lawyers, accountants, radiologists. Robot takes away taxis, truck drivers. Machine kiosks cooks burgers, pizzas.

Ironic how people like Millionaire Sanders and Billionaire Buffet who were most benefits from Capitalism are now blaming capitalism lmfao.

If we put profit before people eventually we are all going to lose we can only walk so much before we get tired and see this is not fair!

Problem is politicians too much lobbying.
