Description
The Public Bank Solution From Austerity to Prosperity by Ellen Hodgson Brown explores an alternative approach to banking that prioritises public interest over private profit. In this system, banks operate as public utilities, providing credit and returning profits to the public. By examining examples from around the world and history, the book demonstrates how a public bank model can promote sustained economic performance and well-being for people. The current banking system's flaws, including control by private profiteers, are highlighted as a key obstacle to achieving these goals.
