The corporate structures in America, which dominate various sectors like food and healthcare, contribute to many societal problems by prioritizing profit over human needs.

Founders sometimes prioritize their own interests over the company's, which can lead to poor governance and decisions that harm investors, such as structuring deals that favor themselves disproportionately.

Investors are generally incentivized to encourage companies to grow quickly, which can lead to misalignment of incentives if a company is profitable but not growing fast enough.

The existing capitalist system prioritizes shareholder gains, making it unlikely for people to receive reduced work hours while maintaining pay.

It's really hard to be a public company due to reporting requirements and misaligned shareholder interests.

The structure of competition in industries often prevents innovators from making money, despite creating significant value for society.

The incentives to think short-term in a public company are overwhelmingly strong, leading to detrimental trade-offs for business and entrepreneurship.

Many consumer companies struggle because they rely heavily on performance marketing, which can erode profit margins and lead to unsustainable business practices.

Innovating in corporate governance, such as choosing unusual incorporation methods, is often misguided and can lead to complications that distract from the main goal of creating a valuable product.
