The Price of Civilization: economics and ethics after the fall

[dexterquotidian]

the highest tax rated countries used to be those of the former Soviet Union. wouldn't say they were succesful economycally.

so just because Scandinavia could do well with high tax rates (so far) it doesn't follow the United States or any other country can.

and there are succesful countries with low tax rates - so I think the presentation misses something fundamental.

In order to hold public lectures, you should have lights, a sound system, a screen for the lecturers slides, a camera to record the event for posterity, and you have all that. Unfortunately, there is no one in your entire organization that has any but the faintest notions of what they are for, how they work, and often, how to turn them on.

good lecture but he goes through what most people should already know, its sad because this is in london and should be done in US where it matters

Ok, so the simple solution is to upload the slides onto a server adn place a link to them on here so we can download and view.

Who is the brilliant mind who recorded this lecture without showing the slides?

[lsewebsite]

@Ibexking At present it’s not possible for us to include slides. It is something, however, that we hope to offer in the future.

[godragons]

@lsewebsite Or you could just fire the cameraman.

[Ibexking]

Why arent the slides shown? Bad editing.

A very good relaxed summation of the economic woes in the US...
