High anxieties . The mathematics of chaos 4.7

BBC4's: "Documentary which looks at how developments in mathematics over the past 40 years have completely changed our understanding of the fundamental nature of the world we live in.
As we approach tipping points in both the economy and the climate, the film examines the mathematics we have been reluctant to face up to and asks if, even now, we would rather bury our heads in the sand rather than face harsh truths."

Yeah, the optimistic peak of the 50s.

White guys confusing their egos with their intellects. But that technology was invented by only a small percentage of them. But many having knowledge is not many having intelligence.

@Zander101084 The equation is NDP = GDP - Depreciation

But that depreciation is Capital Goods only. Cars purchased by consumers are not Capital Goods therefore they can wear out without Depreciating. But the Banks that made the car loans don't agree with that.

Americans have bought their way into slavery and economist let it happen. Encouraged it in fact. The college textbooks are WRONG!

This is BS!

The economists have been doing the math WRONG for decades.

All machines wear out including those bought by consumers. What happened to the depreciation of all of the cars since the Moon landing. 20 years of BAD ALGEBRA.

If accounting had been mandatory for all high school kids since 1960 the what would be the economic state now? Nobody knows. We created CHAOS by building it on IGNORANCE.

MORONS that want power want other people IGNORANT!
