  • So, wages are proportional to the productivity of labour (3:30), but technological devices which increase the productivity of labour decrease wages, all other things being equal (05:20).

    Still, that's only one major contradiction in ten minutes, which is quite good for an economist. I can hardly wait to see what innovative threats of violence the man prescribes in the next part.

  • Finally, an economist out of the ivory tower. Especially the globalization: America is learning the nature of a world economy is to attain a common level - bad news for the American standard of living.l

  • obama is gonna fix it  what the fuck ever

  • I think he makes good points about the 1970's being significant...

    BUT

    he should of also talked about Ronald.R. and the conservative privatization of the economy...

    he must lean to the right because that was pretty signifcant to our economy as well. And this trend has maintained itself over the past 30 years because politicans, policy, the SENATE, Presidents (Clinton,Bush,Bush,) idiots with power and dumb ideas that control the economy like treasurer's, etc etc. A lot of this is intentional

  • this man makes a lot of sense people u better wake up!!

  • Sure, sure.

  • You can't blame past administrations for the desicions being made by the current administration.

    Besides, wasteful spending to clear up debt made by wasteful spending makes about as much sense as using taxes to ease taxpayer burndens.

  • I wonder what happened under 8 years of "W." for "O." to have to resort to such spending.

  • It took W. 8 years to build a one trillion dollar deficit-it only took O. one month to triple that figure.

  • So, who died and made YOU hall monitor? Typical.
