Understanding Power: The Indispensable Chomsky – Noam Chomsky

In Understanding Power: The Indispensable ChomskyNoam Chomsky explains political motives and modern history in a straightforward manner, showing the truth behind the decisions of governments.  These are the facts and details never heard on public news stations and newspapers. I would definitely suggest reading this collection of talks by Chomsky.

Servant Leadership – Robert K. Greenleaf

Recommended by John Bogle, Servant Leadership revolutionizes the way in which organizations are structured. Robert K. Greenleaf argues that institutions should be built upon the Roman idea of primus inter pares. The ancient idea, that leaders should be “one among equals,” benefits modern corporations and government institutions which are traditionally built upon a hierarchical type of organization. These benefits are outlined and discussed throughout the book.

The Natural Mind: An Investigation of Drugs and the Higher Consciousness – Andrew Weil, M.D.

In America there exists a large population of people who lack an adequate education on drugs.  The evidence for this conclusion lies in the government’s miss-classification of various drugs, people’s acceptance of prescription drugs, and the fact that the public education system actually spreads drug ignorance. For an introduction to the whole issue I would recommend reading Dr. Andrew Weil’s book, The Natural Mind: An Investigation of Drugs and the Higher Consciousness.

MMT- Modern Monetary Theory

I first learned about MMT or Modern Monetary Theory after reading an article by Cullen Roche. The article contains a link to a detailed description of MMT. The ideas presented in these articles provide a different perspective on capitalism and the economics of federal governments.

Found this visual model of MMT from this webpage
