The Value of Everything argues that American companies have for too long been valued according to the amount of wealth they capture for themselves rather than for the value they create for the economy. In fact, Pfizer, Amazon, and other companies are actually dependent on public money, spend their resources on boosting share prices and executive pay, and reap ever-expanding rewards without offering the market value.

If private companies continue down this path, they will succeed in diminishing the size of their largest and most successful investor--the state--and will destroy powerful opportunities, shrivel markets, and depress wealth.

Her highly-acclaimed book The Entrepreneurial State (2013) investigates the critical role the state plays in driving growth and her book The Value of Everything (2018) looks at how value creation needs to be rewarded over value extraction.
