- Is China really the enemy, or are we just creating self-fulfilling prophecies?
Jeff Sachs talks with Rob Johnson about the tragedy of modern geopolitics, and how our current race to the bottom could be reversed.
I am 40 years old. I will retire early but I have $281k saved. I can’t work anymore. I am just too tired. I feel confident that my retirement will be a blessing.,but if I can do something profit-driven that will improve my savings and get me a good retirement lifestyle I would like to know. If anyone sees this and can help please comment.
Building a good portfolio, which generates good returns, has been more complex since covid, so I would recommend that you seek professional support. This way, you can get strategies designed to address your unique long-term goals and financial dreams.
Avoid too-good-to-be-true scam schemes. Seek advice from a fiduciary counselor they provide personalized advice to individuals based on their risk appetite, placing them among the best of the best. There are bad ones, but some with good track records can be very good.
@@DanLeahfort Absolutely, this is the sole reason i seek help from a fiduciary-counselor KATHERINE DUFFY BURKE, she prepared me for times like this and had emergency funds ready. so far i have netted over $350k in raw profits.

Not only China, I would like all developing nations to succeed.
Yes, let's wish our world succeed.
My country would certainly be better now if the CIA hadn't sponsored a coup and installed a ruthless bloodthirsty dictator named Suharto.
Up to 3 million people in my country died in 1965 order to make way for that US backed and sponsored coup leader.
Ignorance is indeed a bliss for the American citizen.
That's because until significant economic development, social development are balance quality of lifes across the world, we'll continue to see conflicts led by exploitation from one country to another. Obviously the former powers would love to see the huge unbalance so exploitation continues
@Crypto W talking about Africa, kinda wondering how the western democratic model failed so miserably in South Africa, basically failed on all fronts namely law binding, fair & safe soceity (my colleague moved from SA to Scotland 3 yrs ago in fear of crimes there), free of corruption ect... Personally I genuinely wish Africa to prosperous but Africa needs its own model & make own choices out of the shadow of former colonists
@Crypto W in fact I feel bad for the black farmers who work for the white landlords whose great great grandparents stole the lands, those lands should be return as they weren't acquired legitimately
My huge respect to prof Jeff Sachs. What a precious human being and intellectual, righteous, insightful, and knowledgable. Give me hope about the world and humanity. I like the phrase used by the host introducing him--one of the "leading lights" around the world!
Alas, such brilliant minds will never ‘enlighten’ but a tiny minority of individuals over a whole life time. Not enough to make the future definitely brighter, I’m afraid... The dices are rolled, the die is cast.
"stop gen0cide in Xinjiang , stop military invasion of taiwan, stop human right abuse in hong kong, these are fighting words."
--- Jeffry, the gen0cide, Sachs!!!
It is astounding such an honest voice can still be heard in the US. Dr. Sachs has true courage.
I wish he would address the financial gains for the elites/oligarchy et al, aligning with China, the arguments that the right poses in terms of their concerns... so I can have an honest discussion that isn't a stacked, cherry picked argument. I am open to the idea that Sachs is the man who isn't doing that, but it would go a long way to actually ADDRESS the concerns of the other side, instead of laughing off everyone else as stereotypes of some caricature based on cancel culture enforced agreement, which paints him as having the very unipolar position he speaks against. Sadly, if Sachs is right, and he REALLY wanted everyone on board, he'd not just speak to those whose identities are already in alignment, and actually ADDRESS the ACTUAL concerns of those who would question it.
From now on, I will use the term ¨ honest voice ¨
It's astounding to imply that progressive speech misaligned with the objectives of the sitting government is more dangerous in the United States of America than in the People's Republic of China. I wish for China to finds some voices as honest as Dr. Jeff Sachs. Unfortunately, social credit scores inhibit such discourse.
My first job was in a Chinese restaurant. My father was friends with the owner. I was raised in an area with lots of Asians and I learned respect your elders, traditions are important, and knowledge is power. I cringe every time I hear anti Asian rhetoric.

Big fan of Professor Sachs👍🏿
Prof Sachs is a courageous but calm speaker who understands economies and policy makers, not just on a surface level but deeply to provide a thorough analysis of where we are. We need to hear more from people like him.
We have become for a long time especially last 30 years a belligerent, coercive, bullying, arrogant, and at times murderous regime when we should just be a friendly, cooperative and collaborative and not interferre with other nations.
John Mearsheimer has some great talks on this
Yes you are right. At the same time we take the moral high ground demanding others to live up to our “ standards “
weve got to drain the swamp once and for all
@@johnm7267 no country could live down to USAs "standards" they are way to civilised compared to the USA.
Ironically if US followed this policy it would be much stronger economically and have true allies and would never need to worry about projecting Military power globally. What the Chinese call Win Win
Jeffery Sachs you spoke the truth the world should have more people like you and this will be a very peaceful and prosperous world.
Not really, he defended the IMF's corruption purely to try and defend China. He's just a political sophist
And China would set the rules of the world in 30 years.
It amazes me that this video made it past the Social Media Truth Censors. how did that happen?
Thank you so much for being sane and sound mind and peace-loving. and also courageous. Professor Sachs. 感谢。

Mr. Sachs is fit for the times!
May you live longer to raise more of your kind!

Globalist in the Vatican organising a one world currency for Satanist global fascism, Jeffrey Sachs
Sensible statements from sensible people. For a Chinese living in the US, it's refreshing to hear such voices these days. My respects!
I was thinking this too about China. It’s a fascinating and globally important place. One day people just seemed to insinuate explicitly or implicitly that they were an enemy, and I couldn’t figure out why. This is the first time I’ve heard someone in the last two years say anything to the contrary.
It is egotistical, ignorant, arrogant to the extreme. Sad for such a government, sad for US!!!
And it’s people.
No need to feel sorry for them. They voted for such a regime
We need more communism ?
The Tibetan People and the People of Taiwan would say the same about China. China is repeating what the West has done for Centuries.
In my opinion , the most brilliant and honest dialogue that brings some honesty to the world.
Well, they are highly educated and with good ethics for sure. But most Americans aren't. And there are people called populist politicians, and things called social media. People are now being branwashed so deeply that most of them have become extremely selfish and delusional
He’s deluded if he thinks China is a socialist nation in practice anymore.

@@donnaferolie4388 manufacturing jobs are long gone, and never come back, it’s not about gone where, anywhere but USA, if you try to push it out of place X, it will goes to place Y or place Z, but never America, even some back to America, those jobs would be for robots. It’s just how capitalism works. But someone doesn’t want you question capitalism, especially when there’s no better ism. So divert the attention, lots of fake news on place X, so your attention on place X, and every push comes along with a cost: inflation. (This is my observation.)
Either you are not plugged in or you are deliberately selling propaganda to these people! The entire world knows that CHINA slowly and systematically took our manufacturing (even in Canada and other countries) by infiltrating the system from within. The Chinese people in themselves are delightful, but the CPP is pure evil - mere minions of the globalists and Vatican. What they have done to hundreds of thousands of adults and children is beyond human comprehension. You might fool these leftie pinkies but you don't fool me! I think you need to live with them. Hopefully you won't find yourself getting an expensive organ lopped out!
Jeff Sachs has more courage than just about any other legitimate progressive I know. Somehow he still is getting mainstream media gigs, and when he does he brings the ruckus, calmly, unargumentatively, and without compromise. This guy is an inspiration.
I have a lot of appreciation for Jeffrey Sachs. But his pollyanna view of the assertion of Xi's CCP's global power is naive and harmful. The CCP is the enemy of individual freedom, in China and soon everywhere else too. Watch the corporations of the west bow deeply before the power of Chinese ruling dictatorship. There is no freedom in China and China will have more and more power over world affairs. They are way more (powerful) of an enemy than Russia is.
@@fyt54321 lol, no freedom in China? Then why is there so many rich tourists and students going out of the country, running around the world and then going back?

How comforting to hear Prof Sachs whiff of fresh air .
Jeffrey is for peace and mankind...how great can it be.
People like Sachs, Hedges,Wolf and many others are the people worth following. The Chinese are a noble people, we should respect one another
Noble, I think not. Proud even Hubristic, would be more accurate. But America is just as bad w/ it's uberjingoism, hyper patriotism & colonialism, so, glass houses eh ? I am mostly progressive & socialist in my leanings, & after living in China for 9 years, I an convinced that they are a SINO, socialist in name only. But then, the US is more of an oligarchy than a democracy (DINO), so we should cooperate w/ their Demos, & try to outlive our common corrupt leaders, until the will of the 99% can prevail !!!
The biggest problem is not about China or the urgently needed wealth redistribution to the US itself. The biggest problem is using China as an excuse for not fixing problems in the US. How would that help if the US keeps printing out huge amount of money and burn it by periodically sending military in relatively small scale by traveling very long distance to South China Sea to threaten China? Targeting China fools or at least distracts the American people and will historically drag America into some worst situation similar to that on the Soviet Union.
@@kevincarrigan6348 china's SINO economy is similar, ironically to India's economy under Nehru or when India was more or less socialist (big public sector, state planning, decent size private sector of small and medium businesses)
@@kevincarrigan6348 As a Chinese myself I have to admit that your claim is somewhat true. I think China has taken a detour following a wrong example of America, or, some may argue, under the strong cultural influence from the West. But things will change in the future, just like budda says: Do not attach to any situation, then your true Budda nature will appear.
The Chinese civilization may be seminal to world civilization but the CCP has contributed nothing towards this.
Thank you for a great intellectual look into the problems between America and China. This was a breath of fresh air in understanding China and America.

Give them time. We are now in a modern day opium war with them and their fentanyl. Lots of conterfit gramets shiped it too.
@@sakttan If China invaded Vietnam then Vietnam would have been a part of China a long time ago. Tibet has been a part of China off and on 2500 years before the white man invaded North America and carved out an area to be named "USA." So, in actuality China can't really invade an area that is a part of its own country since Tibet is just a province of China. However, the USA is a land born out of the white people illegally invading lands belonging to the native people of North America as well as lands belonging to Mexico and the Polynesian people. So, get back to me when you have actually learned something about the history of the USA and China, Mr. Hypocrite.
The border disputes between China and India is a problem caused by the British when the British carved out large sections of southern China to give to India since the British favored India over China at the time since they have ruled India more thoroughly than China and have already ruled India for well over 100 years at the time they ventured on to rule China. So, in essence, the problem between China and India is again caused by the white man sticking his nose into affairs that have nothing to do with himself and casually dividing lands to be given to different groups like the lands actually belonged to him. This attitude of the white man has caused all kinds of problems in Palestine where the UK and the US stole lands belonging to the Palestinian people and gave them to the Jews.
The white man did the same thing all over Africa and Asia and other parts of the world that have caused people of different ethnicities to fight for lands because the new boundaries drawn up by the white man aren't the same as the old boundaries that the native Africans, Asians, and South American Indians have known them to be for thousands of years so that when the white man left their country the people naturally want their land back. You see where I'm going with all of the disputes for lands that are caused by the white man?
If the white man didn't go around the world to conquer different lands that didn't belong to him and to steal the resources of different people from around the world for himself then none of these problems would have occurred and there wouldn't be a dispute between China and India over the boundaries. FYI, China never invaded India, the two sides argue over the borders caused by the white man and often have "battles" where both sides throw rocks and sticks at each other. Nobody invade anybody between China and India because if they did there would probably be a major war going on that could get millions of people killed. Likewise, India also has border disputes with Pakistan, Nepal, and other countries. So, why don't you make something up against India for that? Is it because right now India doesn't post an economic threat against the US? Maybe later on when India does you would, eh? So, stop lying through your teeth and making things up. Stop getting your "alternative facts" from the fake news American media!
BTW, I see you're posting hateful lies about China in countless videos that are made about China, are you simply an anti-China racist troll looking to spread lies about China because China is kicking the US's butt in the economy right now? Get a life dude!
Ask the Dalai Lama his views on that subject. The Philippines, Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia are encroaching on Islands disputed by those Countries. China received Hong Kong back but they still bully Taiwan, why?
The best analysis i have heard in resent times. Everybody being well-off through hardworking creates a better world. Politicians should listen to such people.
Politicians will never listen because they are positioned there by parties behind the curtains.

Prof Sachs is my nominee for Noble Peace prize
Your guest is brilliant and makes so much sense!
Sach's career is one of growth.
From the early 1990s until the mid-2000s, Sachs was one of the most prominent figures preaching neoliberal economics. He made contributions to this ideology through his work both academically (he came out of Harvard) but also he was positioned in key levers of powers to give advice to economies of the post-Soviet era, to help them make the shift towards a neoliberal free market. He was not the key proponent of 'shock therapy economics' but someone who had firm faith in its effectiveness. In fact, he was positioned within the IMF and had the unique responsibility of drafting a thorough plan of 'privatisation' of public assets for the Poland economy. What followed is a familiar story, assets looted by foreign interest/oligarchs for a fraction of the true value, the drastic reduction in wealth and development in Russia in the 1990s, and similar negative outcomes of all other third-world countries that attempted the shock therapy reform.
Sachs made a shift afterward, he learned from his prior experiences and became one of the most important development economists. Perhaps his work with the post-Soviet economies taught him lessons in true experiences, but he became one of the leading proponents against imperialism and exploitation. He begun this line of work with his study of Africa in the mid-2000s, and later became engaged in the development of Venezuela, Nigeria, the debt crisis of Greece, the necessity of green development, and has been one of those firmly in the camp of left. A diluted and inoffensive leftist that leaves much of the radical ideology at the door, but an important positive influence nevertheless.
I find Sach's career immensely interesting and I cheer for his progress. I find it particularly noticeable that due to his past work, he still gets invited by the likes of BBC and other think tanks that are surprised when he no longer follows the empire narrative. It is also telling that he is no longer as prominent in the machine of empire as he changed his tune, after all, he was such a young and upcoming economists in the 1990s, he could have gone far in the establishment if he just buckled and served his role. Hell, if he did, I wouldn't be surprised he would be some sort of FED chairman/EU bureaucrat by now. I also find it particularly interesting, that Sachs has effectively red-pilled himself out of the propaganda of democracy, human rights, and freedom, and reached conclusions that are familiar to the socialist/Marxist left, without relying on those ideologies.
Regardless, I salute him. For him to recognize and shift towards the political stance now is a conscious and difficult path away from much personal wealth and power that is as seductive as it is corruptive. Many before him, as brilliant and as intelligent, would have stayed the course and betrayed intellectual honesty for greed. The fact that Sachs has walked this path shows me he is a good man and a great comrade.
It's too bad the path that he followed has forced him out of mainstream political positions that may actually lead him to be a forerunner in elections. Wish he try and run for office to help implement his solution to our current country's economic predicament.
Haha, he’s too young and idealistic, and being used by politicians back then.... hahaha.... that’s why I think he’s really fucked up on those imperialists politicians...
You speak highly of Harvard as if it didn't use slave labor 😅🤣😂
@Chad Abercrombie Sachs is popular with CCP-aligned forums. Sachs preaches to the choir on the CCP-aligned forums, has all the CCP talking points down pat, sees nothing wrong anything the CCP does, and refuses to even acknowledge the concerns of the West. And of course the West is always wrong and the CCP is pure of the driven snow.
I would pay more attention to Sachs if he would even acknowledge the concerns of both sides and then speak to how to get compromise and what exactly that compromise might be. But he didn't do that.
so he had the intelligence to spot errors in his thought and recognised the consequences. He had the integrity to re-think his education, his conclusions, his offered policies. He changed based on new evidence. Yes, he's deserving of respect. Seems to have earned it. Sachs also strikes me as a very intelligent man, too - Harvard impresses me not at all - and should be asked to speak publicly more often.
Wonderful interview. Thank you!
Wow. We need guys like him. He's been to the top, he's worked all the way through. He's seen it and done it. This has been missing in this whole conversation. We rally and we denounce, but when we get back to work we're going to need the guidance of the experienced.

Europe: yes, no, yes, no…
ASEAN: what???
Europe wants to work together with China, 80% of european citizens dislike the usa.
@@The.world.has.gone.crazy... 80%? Can you get me a source on that one?
@Indian Streetshietters ahh yes, "most people I met" and "on the internet," two reputable citations
@ Wes Christians, 80% is a very precise statistic. It must be from a source. What is it?
You should understand that Europe has been ploughed up and ravaged by wars for centuarys, just to mention a few: The Napolionic wars, 1St world war, 2Nd world war, so they know the terrors and hardships of war, which the US does not. They are therfore rightfully cautious.
You're a very good man , a man of peace and love to all humanity.
I lived and taught in China from 2004 until 2015. Just about everything I thought I knew about China proved to be either wrong or distorted. Jeff and Rob are reporting accurately and intelligently. They speak about China with the insight gained from getting hands-on experience inside China and interacting with Chinese. People I didn't know would give me fruit and water on public transportation and if you are a senior, the Chinese will give you a seat even if the bus is full. There was a long running Chinese soap opera that had Chinese and American troops fighting the Japanese. It is a shame the US can't figure out a way to have a mutually beneficial relationship with China but even the remote possibility that the US is less than exceptional terrifies Washington and the dysfunction escalates.
the American goverment is acting like a narcissist that is loosing control narcissist are control freaks
This is perfect Show were people can learn present and past political and economic situation of today. Bravo, world peoples need more of this kind of educating shows.
One of a few smart and intelligent people left in America ...
Many Americans have developed a very dangerous perspectives about many things. As a Canadian, I see it as most unfortunate. It is not what the world needs. Thanks for standing up and expressing your honest opinion, Mr. Sachs.
As much as we all applaud how humble, pragmatic, and insightful Professor Sachs is, the truth is his voice is not heard, on purpose, by those who are leading the current and past administrations of the USA. It is time for the USA to look within itself for solutions on solving their own social or economical problems; China is a scapegoat, and bring it down won't solve any problems but only create more. If humanity as a whole can get out of this zero-sum mindset, we might risk the survival of the entire species on this planet at this rate. I, for one, always stand behind peace, negotiation, and collaboration among different countries and people.
The US forgot to behave in a civilised manner anymore.
When Professor Sachs speaks, the world ought to listen. Unfortunately, most parts of the world just won't.....
It's not the world that's need to listen, it's the US politicnas that need to listen!
Jeffery Sachs is a wonderful speaker and person.My absolute favourite!!
What a relief to listen to an American , who is not poisend with hatred towards other countries! My respect and admiration!
Excellent thinking here. We need to hear more of your ideas to come forth. Ty ❤️
The US is not the first country to face a rising China. The tiger economies (South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Singapore) had to face a rising China years before the US. How did they tackle the same problem? No sanctions or trade war, not only because they were not in a position to fight China, but because they knew something about economics. So, the tiger economies upgraded their industries to produce higher value-added goods, and moved on. The US should learn from others. Comparative advantage is economics 101.
Wakalukong..the US learn??? heaven forbid merikkka dont need to learn anything from anyone lol
Those other Asian tigers all manage to rise up and trade with Chinese to gain benefits from Chinese rising rather than trying to block and sanction them.
The 4 tigers has turn into cubs now.
remember to learn your metric system if you ever go beyond the US border....we know better than the rest of the world.
China does not invade nations and start murdering away like the US
This gentleman makes many good points. He tips his hand though as a partisan. You are a sold out mouthpiece, sir.
Love you Pro. Sachs for his such honest and honest thoughts on every thing. Thanks
Salute to Dr. Sachs.
You are one of the few in the US who have the correct view of current US and China geopolitics. Unfortunately you are the minority.
Jeff Sach a brilliant professor.
What an intelligent and enlightening conversation! I love it.
A well spoken speaker is greatly respected and admired of his fair speech.
CHEERS.
...and I've never been to China and I certainly do not see them as an 'enemy', but then I see no enemy in any people; the inevitability comes only from those that create them. ...and the illness of greed will consume all in pursuit of heedlessly consuming itself.
A very fair statement from these two gentlemen. Which angle is China posing threat to make an enemy, China only asking for is leaves them alone?
I very much agree that humanity should overcome competition and move to collaboration to live all in peace, solving the nature problems we have created.
Thank God for your wisdom, Jeffrey Sachs.
