BBC Question Time: Government regulation of private sector salaries

[magicmoonbeam2]

Of course the cultural marxist at the BBC had to wheel on an African to lecture us about sound economic policy.

Is there is somthing about placing aliens in positions of authority over the indigenous people of this land that gives the population replacement enthusiasts at the BBC a perverse sense of satistaction.

@magicmoonbeam2 Perhaps she was brought on because she is a highly educated economist more than capable of expressing views.

Oh and I mean Oxford and Harvard educated - I suspect a little bit more than you.

[magicmoonbeam2]

@busby3141592 Exactly how many Black Africans got themselves into Oxford last year? They have affirmative action in the states for a reason.

Given that the average IQ in Sub-Saharan Africa is just 70 & the average IQ of African Americans and Black British who have on avg 20% White ancestry is just 85, the likelihood of this Black African being smarter than all of the available White or East Asian Economists is practically zero.

Racial Marxism is insane.

@magicmoonbeam2

So she is more educated than you? And she did get into oxford ... and you can't, sucks huh? This black African is more intelligent than you. Does it sting a little bit?

Care to provide any peer reviewed scientific sources that haven't been thoroughly discredited?

Understand that IQ tests aren't all done on the same scale, and they are becoming more and more discredited as intelligence tests. What is intelligence?

Still though she is smarter than you, and shes black ouch.

[busby3141592]

@magicmoonbeam2 The ironic thing is, if you actually read some of her economic policy - she probably agrees with you.

She wants to end all aid to Africa, and push free market solutions in those countries.

Damn.

[runarolsen]

Bravo! Starkey and Dambisa have it spot on! Real free market and capitalism is about the freedom to make money and the freedom to fail and loose if you get it wrong. Government should not be dictating and should not be bailing out failed enterprises.

[324wilson]

David Starkey is such a theatrical man!

[weejockpoopongmcplop]

I'm quite happy to bash footballers as overpaid and ultimately worthless to society, just like an awful lot of bankers.

[AshillaBeige]

@salmasnoseismassive Do you have a doctorate in economics from Oxford as well as several more masters and bachelors degrees? No? She does. Shut the fuck up, loser. You don't even deserve an opinion.

[nokiwe7]

@AshillaBeige your comment just shows how dull you really are!!!

[AshillaBeige]

@nokiwe7 Oy, bitch-boy. If you have nothing worthwhile to say, stfu.

[nokiwe7]

@AshillaBeige I checked your channel and you have nothing on it!!....Are you still in hiding ...It's a shame that Haters are hating out in the cold..hahahahahahahahahaha

[Thwacker71]

Dambisa, well done. Too many willingly bank-bash, and claim that they were the entire cause of the crisis, forgetting the government's role in allowing sub-prime mortgages to get out of control.

[PrincessGarnet85]

what a ridiculous comparison about footballers salaries, the regulation about the bankers was to regulate their behaviour to stop them taking risks

[bakukenshin]

Moyo knows her stuff, the others smell blood in the water.

[Vesman1]

I agree with Starkey and Moyo... the rest smell of socialism...

[GaiusIuliusTaberna]

I'm of the opinion that the solution to the regulation question is to empower shareholders to take a more active role in dictating the actions of the company, bank, or hedge fund, and not to have the government attempt to do so on their behalf.

The governments function in the privet sector should be limited to ensuring the legal rights of all parties involved in given transactions. Not to make said transactions themselves or decide how they ought to be made.

[largegent]

The new 50% tax over £25 000 is full of holes anyway. A bankers profession is... swindling money. The Government won't touch them with a bargepole no matter which bullshitter is in power because banking is essential to the UK economy and they know it. All this talk is about winning votes.

[opmindcrime]

i'm sorry but this dambisa lady sounds very articulate and its nice and dandy but i find her views to be just slick talk not really anything groundbreaking ..in fact really pretentious....i mean bringing footballers in it, that just pathetic

[keyse091]

It's not pathetic but dead right. what do you think of footballers, angels or something? are they not part of society?

[lb1770]

Does anyone else get the impression that Ben Bradshaw fancies Dr. Moyo? Not that I blame him...

[desirejoseph26]

Dr Dambisa provides excellent analysi,proud of you!

[mrpisterman]

question time is overrated bollocks like eastenders.both are not that important

[christhemountain]

@mrpisterman

bleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh. boooobeee pooo paants

[TheReaganRevolution]

WOW! Please Dambisa, run for government office in the United States, we need people like you.

[AshillaBeige]

@TheReaganRevolution SHE should have been the US's first black president. THAT would actually mean something. Too bad she wasn't born in the US.

And the racist, sexist comments on here are awful. Why is it so many folk treat white men as people, but when it's a woman, you see, "Damn, she's hot/an ugly bitch" and when it's a black person, you see, "Nigger this, nigger that." This lady gets the double whammy.

Jesus...

[maganz]

Dambisa Moyo is reason, politicians populists.

[barlog20]

You are a queen dambisamoyo.
