Summary of Michael J. Sandel's What Money Can't Buy

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The airlines have begun selling line-cutting privileges as an à la carte perk. For $39, United Airlines will sell you priority boarding for your flight from Denver to Boston, along with the right to cut in line at the security checkpoint. #2 The Empire State Building offers a fast track to the top for $45 per person. The Express Pass allows you to skip the lines and go straight to the best views. #3 The fast-track trend can also be seen on freeways across the United States. Commuters can buy their way out of bumper-to-bumper traffic and into a fast-moving express lane. #4 The line-standing business is becoming more common in America. It involves hiring someone to stand in line for you, and then charging your clients as much as $125 per ticket for the free performances.
