Is philanthropy, by its very nature, a threat to today's democracy? Though we may laud wealthy individuals who give away their money for society's benefit, Just Giving reveals how such generosity not only isn't the unassailable good we think it to be but might also undermine democratic values and set back aspirations of justice.

Great criticism of Philanthropy
Revisado: 08-21-23
Very astutely points out the shortcomings of philanthropy. Most philanthropy does not benefit the poor, as many assume. The US structure overwhelmingly rewards richer people for philanthropy, for no clear reason, resulting in the favored causes of the rich to be the beneficiaries of most money.
There’s many great arguments on the inequity inherent in the US system. But it is very dry, academic, and repetitive by the end. Great argument, just not engaging enough to say it’s overwhelmingly 5 stars.

Tesla Motors and CEO Elon Musk have become household names, shaking up the staid auto industry by creating a set of innovative electric vehicles that have wowed the marketplace and defied conventional wisdom. But behind the hype, Tesla has some serious deficiencies that raise questions about its sky-high valuation, and even its ultimate survival. In Ludicrous, journalist and auto industry analyst Edward Niedermeyer lays bare the disconnect between the popular perception of Tesla and the day-to-day realities of the company - and the cars it produces.

Great perspective on Tesla as a Manufacturer
Revisado: 06-13-23
Well researched and detailed. Gives astounding insight on Tesla by comparing to established car industry. The author has incredible insight on profitability and manufacturing in the car industry.
Unfortunately just already out of date. Would love more input as the years have gone on.
