@keahende I wouldn't go that far. I think he's right to be critical of Sachs' attitude towards Keynesianism. Very interesting interview if you ask me, and it's better because Charlie managed to pull out Sachs' explanation on the Structural vs Cyclical problem.
Charlie: "Because the people with power had influence..." As if he is just now realizing this or as if he wants to get a pat on the back for stating such an obvious fact, something you're not allowed to do on tv
He said the corporations HAVE THE CASH, they're just not investing here...give corp's tax breaks, they invest overseas. raise their taxes and they'll still be investing overseas, but Americans will see some improvements if taxes are allocated correctly. invest in education with these higher taxes and then we will have our own economy to invest in...how is that so difficult to grasp...?
