From an uncaring to a caring economy

Caring for others is the highest thing anyone can do in this world. Yet our governments don't value care either in the policies they create, and they don't value it monetarily. We look at how we move from an un-caring economy to a caring economy, how women's unpaid work is the greatest subsidy to our so-called productive economy, and how we need to rethink 'the economic.'

Plus - we analyse President Biden's global minimum tax plans - who wins and who loses? Is it game over for tax havens?
