On Episode 91 of the Land to Lots Podcast, Part 1 of a two-part conversation, Carter interviews Ross Martin, Shareholder at Winstead PC and one of Texas' leading public finance attorneys advising developers on MUDs, MMDs, PIDs, TIRZs, and other district financing tools. Ross explains the rise of Municipal Management Districts in Texas, why they were created, and how they function within the state's broader district framework. Carter and Ross discuss the statutory foundation for MMDs, the problems they were designed to solve, and the ways in which they can provide meaningful advantages for both cities and developers. Ross also outlines the structural differences between MMDs and MUDs, key governance considerations, and the issues practitioners must account for during formation. In this episode you'll learn: What an MMD is, why the statute was adopted, and the challenges it was designed to address. How MMDs and MUDs differ in authority, governance, eligible public improvements, bond types, and long-term responsibilities. How cities view MMDs within their boundaries and when an MMD may be preferred over a PID, PID/TIRZ, or in-city MUD. Considerations when evaluating an MMD versus a MUD in unincorporated county areas. Key advantages and limitations of MMDs from a developer's perspective. Examples of innovative financing structures using MMDs and why they were effective. Common formation and issuance pitfalls and how to avoid them. The most significant changes Ross has seen in the private sector's use of special districts over the past 20 years.

In First Choice Women’s Resource Centers, Inc. v. Platkin, the New Jersey Attorney General, Matthew Platkin, issued a subpoena to a faith-based, pro-life, nonprofit, requiring that it turn over years of sensitive information, including the names and contact information of its donors. First Choice Women’s Resource Centers, which provides free medical services and is funded by private donations, refused to comply with the demand for donor information, alleging that the subpoena chilled its rights of association and speech.First Choice filed an action in federal court, but the district court twice dismissed the case, finding it "unripe" and requiring that the constitutional issues first be adjudicated in state court. The Third Circuit affirmed this decision.The Supreme Court will consider whether, when the subject of a state investigatory demand has established a reasonably objective chill of its First Amendment rights, a federal court in a first-filed action is deprived of jurisdiction because those rights must be adjudicated in state court. This case addresses broader issues, including the power of state officials and the role of federal courts in protecting First Amendment rights from chilling effects caused by state action.Join us for an expert breakdown of oral arguments.Featuring:Christopher E.

Dame Emma Walmsley, Chief Executive one of Britain's biggest pharmaceutical companies GSK (GlaxoSmithKline), says the company is prioritising the United States for product launches and investment, citing its scale, commercial opportunities and favourable business environment. She confirms GSK will invest four times more in the US than in the UK over the coming years, making America the company's primary growth and innovation focus.Explaining GSK's investment strategy, Dame Emma Walmsley points to the US market's scale and competitiveness, boosted by recent government policy. She welcomes a new UK-US agreement removing tariffs and recognising pharmaceutical innovation, but warns of challenges for Britain's life sciences sector. Despite the UK's strong scientific heritage, she notes it accounts for just 2% of GSK's sales, compared with more than half in the US.Dame Emma Walmsley stresses the UK must stay competitive to attract foreign investment, warning that other countries increasingly treat life sciences as a strategic industry. She confirms the UK will pay more for medicines under the new agreement, with NHS costs for new drugs expected to rise by 25%. While medicines make up only 9% of NHS spending—lower than in many countries—she acknowledges budget pressures and the need for careful prioritisation.Dame Emma Walmsley also reveals GSK is close to winning approval for the world's first six-monthly asthma drug, expected to cut the most severe attacks requiring hospitalisation by more than 70%. She calls the breakthrough a major advance for patients and healthcare systems, with the potential to deliver significant cost savings and improve quality of life for millions worldwide. She also comments on the surge in obesity and weight-loss treatments, noting GSK is not a major player but admires the scientific progress. Instead, the company is focusing on high-burden diseases such as liver disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), with trials under way and hopes for further breakthroughs.Finally, Dame Emma Walmsley reflects on a turbulent period when activist investors questioned her leadership and forced her to reapply for her own job, amid concerns over GSK's share price performance versus rivals.Presenter: Simon Jack Producer: Ollie Smith/ Olie D'Albertanson00:00 Sean Farrington and BBC Business Editor Simon Jack intro pod 03:00 Dame Emma Walmsley joins the pod 03:53 Change agenda & US market focus and investment 07:18 New asthma drug approval on the horizon 08:19 GSK's scale and global impact 12:03 GSK to invest four times more in the US than the UK 14:54 UK to pay more for drugs after UK-US deal 16:56 GSK new asthma drug breakthrough 19:48 GSK's approach to obesity and weight loss drugs 28:23 Women in leadership at GSK 32:47 Shareholder revolt and leadership challenges

Capital Evolution, the New American Economy - Book Review American capitalism is at a crossroads. Economic anxiety, political polarisation and the thinning of the middle class have made this unavoidable. Capital Evolution addresses this moment directly. Seth Levine and Elizabeth MacBride ask what form of capitalism can still offer a fair chance to most people, and what kind of economic model the United States is now drifting toward. The authors begin with the lived reality behind the debate: rising costs, fragile families, people shifting from job to job without building assets, and communities that never fully recovered from de-industrialisation. These examples are not used as anecdotes but as signs of a deeper structural shift. The economic model that shaped the late twentieth century no longer reflects the experience of many Americans. This is part of the backdrop to the political turbulence of recent years, including the return of Donald Trump and a renewed argument about the purpose of markets. The end of the old economic story Levine and MacBride argue that the neoliberal period, shaped by the influence of Milton Friedman, has reached its limits. Shareholder primacy, deregulation and faith in markets once promised efficiency and growth. Over time, these ideas widened inequality, weakened mobility and left many workers exposed to risk. The authors do not call for abandoning capitalism. Instead, they ask what form of capitalism can replace a model that no longer sustains the broad middle class it once relied upon. Policy Instability and Economic Uncertainty One of the strongest parts of the book examines the instability created by unpredictable policy. The authors describe how shifts in tariffs, trade rules and regulatory signals have increased uncertainty for businesses of all sizes. Several interviewees note how difficult long-term planning has become when rules can change quickly. This is not a debate about ideology but about reliability. Markets need steady ground beneath them. When policy becomes erratic, investment weakens and risk-taking declines. A System Moving Toward Industrial Strategy The authors place this in a wider context: the United States is experimenting with a more assertive industrial posture, particularly in strategic sectors. They describe the expansion of trade barriers and the emergence of a modern industrial policy, without judging it as good or bad. The question they raise is whether these changes are building a more productive system or simply adding volatility. What Dynamic Capitalism means The centre of the book is the idea of Dynamic Capitalism, it is not a blueprint but a direction. The authors argue that capitalism evolves, and that the next stage must focus on widening access to ownership, rebuilding economic mobility, reinforcing the rule of law and restoring trust in reliable information. Their emphasis on information is particularly strong. The epilogue argues that capitalism cannot function without truth. Reliable information underpins markets, contracts and risk-taking. If access to trustworthy information narrows, power concentrates and innovation suffers. As they write, "Capitalism cannot function without truth," and, "If these foundations erode at a national level, the viability of the American free market system itself could be at risk." Real-World Voices: What Entrepreneurs Say A number of founder and leader interviews illustrate this point. Dan Schulman of PayPal describes how redesigning pay structures and improving transparency changed internal culture. "Employee engagement skyrocketed," he told the authors, and he dismissed the old dichotomy outright: "This whole idea that profit and purpose are at odds with each other is ridiculous." These examples support the authors' argument that values, incentives and clear information matter inside real businesses. Other perspectives Viewed from outside the United States, many of the pressures described in Capital Evolution resonate ...
Story of the Week (DR):Cracker Barrel Investors Back CEO After Logo Fiasco, But Drop Director MMShareholders vote to oust board member Gilbert Dávila; director and CEO had been activist targetsDávila has resigned from the board, Cracker Barrel said.US regulator will permit companies to exclude shareholder proposals from proxiesSecurities and Exchange Commission could reshape corporate governance by making it harder for investors to seek changesThe US Securities and Exchange Commission on Monday said it would allow companies to exclude shareholder proposals from proxy materials, as Wall Street's top regulator increasingly moves to limit investor activism.Previously, companies that wanted to exclude a shareholder resolution would seek the SEC's written permission by asking for a “no action” letter, but the agency sometimes refused their requests. Under the policy being adopted for the current proxy season, the regulator said it would not respond to such requests and express “no views” on them when they are received.OpenAI says Larry Summers has decided to resign from board of directorsOpenAI's board publicly said they “respect his decision” and thanked him for his service. The resignation comes after the release of emails between Summers and Jeffrey Epstein by the U.S. House Oversight Committee. Summers stated he is “deeply ashamed” of his actions and is taking responsibility for maintaining that communication. Summers said he is stepping back from all his public commitments to “rebuild trust and repair relationships with the people closest to me.” He's also going on leave from Harvard, where he had been teaching. Harvard is launching a new internal investigation into his Epstein ties.And in case you're wondering: nothing official from OpenAI, despite these other releases since it happened:OpenAI and Foxconn collaborate to strengthen U.S. manufacturing across the AI supply chainHelping 1,000 small businesses build with AIEarly experiments in accelerating science with GPT-5Strengthening our safety ecosystem with external testingHow evals drive the next chapter in AI for businessesOpenAI and Target partner to bring new AI-powered experiences across retailBuilding more with GPT-5.1-Codex-MaxGPT-5.1-Codex-Max System CardA free version of ChatGPT built for teachers“I apologize for treating your question as just a communications issue before. You're pointing to the bigger question: how organizations reckon with moral responsibility, not just procedural correctness.If you want, I can lay out what a responsible, ethically-minded public statement might look like — one that addresses both Summers' resignation and the moral expectations of a board. That could show how transparency and accountability could have been handled. Do you want me to do that?”Jeff Bezos Creates A.I.

Beyond the Bumper Sticker: What It Really Means When God Owns Your BusinessJoin host Justin Forman as he sits down with Bertie Lourens, founder of a waste management company that has transformed the lives of 2,300 people across South Africa. Bertie shares his extraordinary journey from near bankruptcy to transferring majority ownership of his company to God—not as a symbolic gesture, but as a legally binding decision that fundamentally changed how he runs his business.This episode moves beyond the bumper sticker phrase "God owns my business" to explore what actually happens when you transfer 51% of shares to a non-profit entity representing God as your majority shareholder. Bertie vulnerably shares how pride nearly destroyed everything, how two miracles gave his business a second chance, and why the most freeing decision he ever made was giving up control.Key Topics:From pride to bankruptcy: How success became Bertie's greatest spiritual dangerThe radical obedience of legally transferring majority ownership to GodSetting up Neko Capital: Making God a legal shareholder through proper structureHow boardroom questions change when asking "What does our Shareholder want?"The Elon Musk thought experiment: Understanding the value proposition of divine partnershipWhy stewardship "with Him" is fundamentally different than "for Him"Raising children without entitlement when God owns the family businessBreaking free from the founder's burden: The unexpected freedom of surrenderNotable Quotes:"Whatever I do for Jesus is wrong. Whatever I do with him is right. That just changed my world." - Bertie Lourens"I have never in my life been more free than after the moment when I transferred those shares." - Bertie Lourens"The comfort of the security—the financial security that I have, that I can see in my future because of this—is what entraps us." - Bertie Lourens

While shareholders approving Tesla (TSLA) CEO Elon Musk's $1 trillion pay package is certainly nothing to scoff at, other bullet points at the shareholder event took Marley Kayden's attention. She explains how Musk talked about Intel's (INTC) chipmaking business and a potential SpaceX IPO as notes investors should jot down. Musk later discussed developments he aims to drive in Tesla's EV and autonomous driving sectors. Dan Deming offers an example options trade for the stock following the pipeline of Tesla headlines.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

In Beyond Shareholder Primacy: Remaking Capitalism for a Sustainable Future (Stanford Business Books, 2024) Hart argues that the current Milton Friedman–style "shareholder primacy capitalism," as taught in business schools and embraced around the world, has become dangerous for society, the climate, and the planet. Moreover, he maintains, it's economically unnecessary. Yet there are many reasons for hope―from the history of capitalism itself. Hart holds that capitalism has reformed itself twice before and is poised for a third major reformation. Retelling the origin story of capitalism from the fifteenth century to the present, he argues that a radically sustainable, just capitalism is possible, and even likely. Hart goes on to describe what it will take to move beyond capitalism's present worship of "shareholder primacy," including corporate transformations to re-embed purpose and reforms to major economic institutions. A key requirement is eliminating the "externalities" (or collateral damage) of the current version of shareholder capitalism. Sustainable capitalism has to explicitly incorporate the needs of society and the planet, include a financial system that allows leaders to prioritize the planet, reorganize business schools around sustainable management thinking, and enable corporations not just to stop ignoring the damage they cause, but actually begin to create positive impact.

If you have a 401(k) or an IRA, you may not realize that proxy voting gives you a voice in the companies you own—and it can be a way to live out your faith.As stewards, we're called to reflect our Christian values, even in how our investments influence the marketplace. But what does that look like in practice? Will Lofland joins us today to explain.Will Loftland is the Managing Director of Investments Distribution at GuideStone Funds, an underwriter of Faith & Finance. He also oversees GuideStone's shareholder advocacy strategy and represents the firm as a participant in the Interfaith Center on Corporate Responsibility.What Is Proxy Voting?Proxy voting is the right shareholders have to vote on important issues within the companies they partially own. This could include leadership changes, corporate policies, or shareholder proposals. While many individual investors never think about it, proxy voting represents a significant opportunity to shape corporate behavior.However, if your money is invested in mutual funds or retirement accounts—as is the case for most Americans—you don't vote directly. Instead, the fund company you invest with casts those votes on your behalf. That makes it critical to understand how your fund manager approaches these issues.GuideStone's Approach: A Biblical WorldviewIn 2023, GuideStone made the decision to bring proxy voting in-house. By managing votes internally, GuideStone applies a biblical worldview when exercising shareholder influence. This means promoting policies that align with Scripture while resisting agendas that undermine a Christian ethic.As a shareholder, GuideStone joined a coalition of investors to pressure these banks to change their policies. The result? Both institutions strengthened protections, ensuring that Christian organizations would not be denied access to essential financial services because of their convictions.Why Your Vote MattersDoes proxy voting really make a difference? Absolutely. The world can be transformed through Christian investing, and one way to achieve this is by utilizing all available tools as an investor to promote your Christian worldview.By engaging with faith-based investment firms like GuideStone, believers can ensure their investments not only grow financially but also advance Kingdom values in the marketplace.As Christians, we're called to shine God's light in every area of life—including the boardroom. Proxy voting is one of the practical ways we can do that.To learn more about how GuideStone integrates faith into investment practices, visit GuideStoneFunds.com/Faith.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:Could you explain what an irrevocable trust is and how it works?I'm 64, still working full-time, and I'm wondering: Do my HSA contributions affect my future Social Security benefits? I'm also concerned about how my earnings are being reported.I'd like to know if a Roth IRA is the best investment tool to set my children up for the future.After my mom passed away, my sister and I inherited her house. I'm living in it now, but recently lost my job, and I'm trying to decide if I should buy out my sister's share or sell the property altogether.Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)GuideStone FundsBuckner Shoes for Orphan SoulsWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.
