QuoteCapitalism is the best economic system for wealth creation, but it can come at a cost, according to U2 singer, social activist, and investor Bono.

"It's a wild beast. And if not tamed, can and has chewed up a lot of lives," Bono said in a CNBC interview from the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland that ran Thursday.

"Though it has taken more people out of extreme poverty that any other 'ism,' it's caused a lot of damage, a lot of harm," he said. "We need to re-imagine it, repurpose it, remake it, in our own image and the image of this new generation coming through that really, really want their world back."

To that end, Bono and private equity giant TPG Capital are partnering on a new organization, called Y Analytics, to develop metrics for analyzing the impact of social and environmental investments. The goal is for economists and researchers to work with investors to make decisions that score both high financial returns and societal benefit.
With all these lawyers with cameras on the street i'm shocked we have so much crime in the world.

There is constitutional law and there is law and order. This challenge to law and order is always the start to loosing our constitutional rights.

Frauditors are a waste of life.

And the smell of your bullshit that comes out of your month can chew up a lot of nose hairs.

Hey Bozo, oops I mean Bono you failed to mention about 110 million people, foreign and domestic, were killed by Communist democide from 1900 to 1987.

But hey Bono a little over looking the facts doesn't kill anyone or does it.

People sleep peacefully at night because there are a few tough men prepared to do violence on their behalf.

A wise man uses it to scratch his balls.
