Capitalism 3.0

I've just finished reading Capitalism 3.0, from Peter Barnes, cofounder of Working Assets. The basic notion is that the negative effects of capitalism as we know it (environmental degradation, exaggerated inequality, etc.) can be fixed within the system by creating a set of property trusts to manage the natural, community and cultural commons. Sounds good to me... now we just have to do it!
