For my EMBA class "The Weave", our professor assigned for reading a John Templeton Foundation Conversation called "Does The Free Market Corrode Moral Character?" We were then tasked with choosing which author's position was most aligned with ours. After reading them all, I most agreed with John Gray. Gray is right when he says, "An economic system is good to the extent that it harnesses human imperfections in the service of human welfare." I would also add that we ought not look to free markets or central planning to correct the failings of man. Rather we look elsewhere, beyond man, to find those solutions.
So who do you agree with or who do you most disagree with? You can read the conversation here: http://www.templeton.org/market/
