someone needs to pick this dude a better hat...he smiles way too much...difficult to trust a constant smiler...

[woodsprout]

@hermeschbird That's superficial of you to judge his hat and his smile.

How about this: It is difficult to take a superficial person seriously. (meaning you)

I take Mr. Freeman seriously, you on the other hand are not presenting any substance.

I didnt realize I had such a legend as a teacher. I have THE Richard Freeman as my Econ teacher this semester.

God Bless these men! I have a lot of respect for them even though I am confused by much of their works. Many of the economists I know are not comfortable with people interactions, and can't approach a woman to save their life! Yet, they've devoted their lives to their cause..

[gunthaarz]

The perceptions and interpretations in economics are subtle I grant you that, but they are far from nonexistent. J.K.Galbraith, Milton Friedman and others might have had other views. I have only read economics privately for 20 years, but I can tell you this much: capitalist indonesia is poor, capitalist argentina is poor, the same goes for hundreds of other countries.

[bellinivernon]

Exelente ! ; gracias ,desde argentina.

[gunthaarz]

This is useless. economics do not need economists to tell us what they haven't understood. Go listen to Michael Parenti instead. He can tell you how the global economics work in five seconds. AND prove it with undeniable FACTS.

[PunkCheerleaderBetch]

Yes and the Jews did 9/11? Michael Parenti does not have a degree in Economics and he does not know jackshit about the field. But as you are the one to field the accusations against a renowned and respected academics, maybe you would want to indulge me in your qualifications? If there any other than running a channel dedicated to infantile conspiracy theories! What a stupid and ignorant comment you posted! Krugman and Freeman outrank you in every way possible you imbecile.

[gunthaarz]

you "didnt realise"???? you "didnt realise" that Bush was only going to be compassionate towards people with an income over a million dollars???? you're a professor in economics and theres MILLIONS of us who "realised" this for decades and centuries!!!

[gunthaarz]

?? globalisation will increase what for which poor people??? how does this ryhme with poverty rising?? the only reason china is profiting is because they are protecting themselves ( protectionist) (outside our sphere of political economic influence ) . This economist is useless.

[DanLackey]

Hey, uh, what's with the hat?

[vinzz99]

ha ha.. great!.. he is a great thinker and has a lot of influence on labor econ and econ though in general.. in fact it is the first time i ever hear my teacher talk about himself that much.... even we have been know each other for almost 9 yrs... vin

[thelittleho0dlum]

Thank you for posting this. A great little book I read is "Rigging the Game" by North Carolina professor Michael Schwalbe.
