I started to put up one on Neoliberalism and the nation state but decided it was a little dry, I'm looking for one that is presented in a somewhat interesting manner not too left-wing biased and with good production values.

Bronc24 Posted March 25, 2011 Posted March 25, 2011 Loved the scripted question on the cigarette companies. Is that Kevin Spacey playing Michael Betancourt? Here's an idea...if you hate capitalism, move to Cuba. You and your like-minded fellows can enjoy living off of $20 / month. Perhaps you can sell some black market cigars on the beach....oh wait, that's capitalistic. Nevermind.

Nevermind. no Maude If you love totally free and unfettered capitalism you move to Somalia- maybe you'll be sold on the black market you'll love it.

I thought Kevin was a little stiff in this role. He did not seem to immerse himself or appear to be buying the crap he was spewing. Edited March 26, 2011 by Marauder24

Maude don't worry about not understanding what he was saying, it was conceptually way beyond you, you're a self admitted Canadian Dumbass so there is no shame about being ignorant on any matter except Beer, Hockey or Taping a Maple tree.
GG Posted March 26, 2011 Posted March 26, 2011 Life imitates art So you posted: Economics for progressives part 1 and Economics for progressives part 3 So um what's Phase II? I think that's the point. Progressive economics ignore the rules of math, so it only makes sense to them.

Is that like "papering" a house? What kind of tape? Duct tape? Masking tape? Scotch tape? Or, are you just going to record the noises it makes? BTW, lyrbob, what is your expertise in the real estate and mortgage industries?

Booster4324 Posted March 26, 2011 Posted March 26, 2011 Economics for Progressives: Phase I: Spend Money you don't have Phase 2: ??? Phase 3: Profit for big business Fixed
GG Posted March 26, 2011 Posted March 26, 2011 Fixed Not really. Big business will profit no matter what. The trick is to use that profit to benefit the standard of living of the population.
