How the Gates Foundation's values shape the world - Marketplace
All this week on “Marketplace Tech,” I’m revisiting some of our shows from 2020. That includes an interview I did with Bill Gates, co-chair of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, which is trying to eradicate polio and malaria globally. He created a billion-dollar climate investment fund. He’s funded multiple factories to find a vaccine for COVID-19 and played matchmaker to companies around the world to get that vaccine distributed.
Gates is in the position to do all this because he is one of the world’s richest people. So I asked him how his philanthropy ends up doing so much of the work of government. He said some of it is mission creep. Take malaria.

How to problem-solve through economic issues - Marketplace
Identifying problems, especially economic issues, can seem obvious. What's harder is figuring out the constraints that prevent them from being solved. But there are ways to arrive at solutions.
It's the subject of a new book, "The Economic Superorganism" by Carey King, a research scientist and assistant director of the Energy Institute at the University of Texas at Austin. He recently spoke with Marketplace's Andy Uhler.
