Does capitalism need reform — or revolution?

A world tour of companies successfully bucking economic orthodoxies...the US-based Well-Paid Maids, which gives employees a living wage. They prove, Romeo says, that capitalism can work for people, not just the other way around.

A living wage made a world of difference to him

"I work only 35-40 hours a week and I'm making more than two jobs. And now I can spend some time with my family. I can help my dad when he wakes up." A living wage means a world of difference for Sayem. He's saving money for the first time. He has plans to go back to school for a career in IT.

A housecleaning business with an additional mission in mind

The self-described left-of-center guy is hoping that Well-Paid Maids succeeds and points the way toward policies that improve the life of the working class and soften the edges of capitalism. “I don’t think the government should be making SpaghettiOs,” he said. “But we have a very under-regulated economy, especially in terms of wages and benefits. There are policy solutions to ameliorate that. Hopefully, I am demonstrating those policies can work.”
