Is Capitalism Broken, and Can it Be Fixed?

Is Capitalism Broken, and Can it Be Fixed?

Bethany McLean, author of best-selling books including, "The Smartest Guys in the Room", and "All the Devils are Here", climbs back aboard to The Express after receiving the SABEW Distinguished Achievement Award, to talk about how she broke open some of the biggest business stories of the past thirty years. From Enron to Elon Musk's SolarCity, Bethany talks about how she developed her sense of wrongdoing, her battles challenging the Power and the Powerful, and whether America's style of capitalism can be saved.
