Description: Buddha on Wall Street : What's Wrong With Capitalism and What We Can Do About It, Paperback by Linn, Vaddhaka, ISBN 1909314447, ISBN-13 9781909314443, Brand New, Free shipping in the US After his Enlightenment the Buddha set out to help liberate the individual, and create a society free from suffering. The economic resources now exist to offer a realistic possibility of providing everyone with decent food, shelter, work, and leisure, to allow each of us to fulfill our potential as human beings, while protecting the environment.
