Moral Capitalism: The FoundationSven Gelbhaar26.03.2019 Capitalism, in its current state, neglects to find intrinsic value (to theindividual). We used to believe in this concept when money was backed byprecious metals, which were thought to have innate, intrinsic value.

Beyond IncompletenessSven Gelbhaar24.03.2019 Back in 1910-1927CE, an attempt was made to enumerate all conceivablemathematical knowledge in one cohesive system.
