Feb 2, 2009 - Lol, so you want to learn how to do a Ponzi?

Feb 2, 2009 - I think Sal should do a video on what he feels is the best way to end this crises if he were president. I'm wondering if he feels that building new bridges, roads, and increase government spending on education will trigger enough capital to get the world out of this mess we're in. Or does he think starting a war like we did after the Great Depression will be the best solution.

Feb 8, 2009 - Going to war provides no benefit that cannot be equally well achieved by employing a comparable number of people to dig holes in the ground and fill them up again.But you needn't worry about projects for investment - y'all have a backlog of several trillion € of neglected infrastructure maintenance alone, nevermind new projects.The problem is that your political class seems to think that bailing out the stupid fools who torpedoed the economy in the first place is more important.

Jun 13, 2010 - @YourLordlinessStocks shouldn't have been invented. Non-tradable long-term bonds make much more sense for a capitalist system. Investment fuels capitalism. Trading whores it. If bonds must be traded, only creditors should (i.e. by trading the bond principal and bond maturity date).Normal economics chants that thinking on the margin indicates rationality. I say rationality cannot be rushed. I also say that whoring a living from the economy is irrational. Who agrees with me?
