Nailed it with the parasitic class. The US is run by middle men that add no value to anything and take the lions share of profits.

Gary I remember you attending the Ha Joon lectures years ago, I was one of the camera folk 😄👍

Here’s what could get more expensive with Trump’s new tariffs.

A city boy and an economics professor walks into a bar, and agrees that America is a pseudo-third world country!

Brilliant! I love Ha-Joon Changs insight and his books are excellent. He's the cream of heterodox economists and we now know they only ones worth listening to on economics. Looks like this a clip from a longer conversation, can't wait to see the rest.

Why are you guys glossing over how this has pressure makes the middle class bigger. Or is it cause you only think taxing the rich makes that possible?

Dumb and dumber.

There are so many #Economist bullshitters but Prof Ha-Joon Chang is always a voice of reality. Thank you Gary for bringing him on an accessible format.

amazing amount of naivety on trade because the neolib establishment is such a strong bias and consensus, even "smart" people seem blissfully unaware of the issue

how tariff distribute wealth upwards from working classes to the already wealthy #thebigsqueeze
