  • why isnt labour the same as a capital good? why differentiate? i liked all the episodes up to this because they were so universal abstracted from the real world sort of yet ringing full of truth. this doesnt really seem like that.

  • to be more specific- economic land (natural resources) is the equilibrium quotient in terms of sustainability...... yeah, humans can make more goods for consumption, only determined by natural abundance of non man made matter- our most precious thing (air) is not produced by us...

    ..and so to not account for this mathematically (or for fiscal policy purposes) is akin to junk science.....

  • why do you not differentiate between human made materials and non human made materials? mathematically speaking, all models will not represent the real world as a result...

  • Not pointing any fingers, John Maynard Keynes... lol

  • sick nice vid

  • Keynesianism is a belief in magic paper :-)

  • @Stargazer5781

    Keynesianism is sharing power between a state oligarchy and capitalist oligarchy. Thus elitism.

  • Keeeyyynnneeesss!
