 Have you logged your performance today? Remember, efficiency guarantees citizenship. Your economic counsel thanks you very much. The characteristic flaw in the worldview of those inventing a new world is not to understand how this world works. Until it bites them in the ass. And when the models of economists and real life get too far apart, that's when the trouble really starts. Economics still offers only one way of looking at the world. We have seen many upheavals of capitalism lately. There are structures built in that make the system both relatively fragile, and at the same time create major advantages for some at the very top. The system is very much rigged. The wealthy have been very creative. They have the political power, and really the political ingenuity to structure the market in ways that benefit them. It is unjust. Economics needs to be reformed to improve the world rather than serving interests of a narrow elite. Economists have got lots of things wrong, including gender. Women have been the biggest reserve army of labor that can be mobilized to enter the labor force when they're needed and then thrown back out. When we talk about inequality in access to education in the US, we talk about inequality between people who are born to rich parents and people who are born to middle class or poor parents. This all comes under this big word of inequality. But in reality, each of these issues are really topics that we face every day. Inequality itself is a cause of the climate crisis, not merely a result. The environment is conceptualized as something that we consume, and that's a fundamental error. Economists and policymakers tend to think of this as a different silo from many other things. I want to argue that it's not. What should be the role of money and markets in a good society? Shaping the trajectories of children, adolescents, and young adults, we want a society to be one in which there are large opportunities for individuals outside the accident of birth. As we rethink how to deal with problems such as inequality, such as climate change. Unless you know your history, you're condemned to repeat it. There are many different ways of changing the world. The science is pretty nailed down. The economics is what we have to work on now. Let's get started. Go out and start questioning everything.
