Cheri Hill, Champion of Capitalism
10/07/2025 Duration: 25minCapitalism: An economic system in which investment in and ownership of the means of production, distribution, and exchange of wealth is made and maintained chiefly by private individuals or corporations, especially as contrasted to cooperatively or state-owned means of wealth. Friedrich Hayek in his book, The Road to Serfdom warns of the danger of tyranny that inevitably results from government control of economic decision-making through central planning. He further argues that the abandonment of individualism and classical liberalism inevitably leads to a loss of freedom, the creation of an oppressive society, the tyranny of a dictator, and the serfdom of the individual. Countless men and women worked together to create the breakthroughs that today inspire us with awe. It is their stories – of ambition, of bravery, of hope, and of trust in their companions – that we should celebrate as the true legacy of capitalism. Sageintl.com

A History of Corporations
11/06/2025 Duration: 25minThe first documented "corporation" in Ancient Rome emerged during the Roman Republic (6th to 1st century BC) with evidence suggesting large firms with publicly traded shares. While not identical to modern corporations, these entities were essentially shareholder-based businesses, indicating a form of corporate structure existed in early Roman times. The development of the corporation paved the way for the creation of an entirely new class of citizen: the capitalist. While there have always been rich people, the corporation provided a new way for the rich to grow richer. Instead of hoarding their wealth or spending it on luxuries and riotous living, the rich could instead invest it in a company. As shareholders in a corporation, they could then sit back and watch their investment grow, day in and day out, all through the labors of others, with little to no input from themselves. This marked a sea change in the nature of business. Now it's YOUR turn! www.SageIntl.com
