    You are wrong about Milton Friedman and welfare, Milton Friedman was for welfare system sort of proto UBI universal based income, except that it is like a negative income tax, if you are poor you get welfare, as you earn money you get less but disproportionate to your wages so earning money is always a net benefit unlike today you can lose welfare by earning money. It is a more equitable and egalitarian system than our current one ironically, but people still think Milton was against welfare. Of course in his ideal society welfare wouldn't be needed, but we don't live in ideal society which is why Friedman invented his concept of Negative Income Tax based UBI system.

    A little more protectionism and a little less globalization go a long way for local production in all the countries that aren't the world's 'sweat shop' like Communist China. Conversely, it reintroduces jobs to the countries that off-shored their production for the cheapest bottom line, as well mass immigration lowers the bottom line for corporations as it takes away bargaining ability from low-skilled workers who don't have options and are forced to accept the minimum pay and minimal benefits due to the ease of their replacement. Globalization may have lowered prices on consumer products but hurt the workers who either once had jobs in industries that no longer exist in their country, or work in industries that will replace them the moment they ask for more. Think of the prosperity of the 50's in the US, and compare it to today, nothing has changed besides the greediness of elites and corruption of politicians.

      I'm from Pittsburgh. I've been to Toronto a few times, and yeah it wasn't that different from home in some areas. The whole Great Lakes region got slammed. I live in an area full of abandoned steel and coal buildings, the manufacturing days here are long over. I don't how it's going in Ontario, but I hope you guys have enough jobs to go around now. Pittsburgh was lucky to find new jobs in robotics and education. I think that's where the future is for the city. I think even if steel manufacturing comes back, it won't nearly be to the level of what it was, and nobody's going to open new coal plants or mines anymore, we use natural gas now. Everyone here is tired of oil in the water from fracking, and trains derailing with chemicals like what happened in Palestine Ohio, to add coal dust and smoke to that list is not going to fly with anybody. I think people here really want the area to be clean, because it hasn't been for the longest time, and if we have to sacrifice the manufacturing jobs for other jobs, maybe it's a good thing for people's health in the long term. Education and robotics won't leave scars on the land and ultimately on us like coal and steel do. Sucks for blue-collar workers though. If all you've known is the steel or coal industry, it's hard to change. But change comes regardless of if you want it or not.

      The low-cost labor group includes textiles, apparel, toys, and electronics assembly. This is the shit that we moved to China; Jobs in these businesses are the most globally tradable; manufacturers in these businesses develop global supply chains to optimize access to the right low-wage capabilities. Manufacturing has fallen from 30% of US employment in 1950 to 10% today, even as output grew steadily; and manufacturers have consistently raised productivity through automation and innovation in products and processes. Indeed, in advanced economies, manufacturing has become the engine of productivity growth, providing about a third of productivity improvement in the US, or three times its contribution to employment. Manufacturing also leads in research and development, supplying up to 70% of private-sector research and development funding in advanced economies. Manufactured goods also remain the largest source of exports in most advanced economies. Really we make the same amount 3x less employees, 3x more productively.

    I'd love to see a video about the economics of illiberal democracies, especially Viktor Orban's Hungary. I don't like him, but it's hard for me to judge his economy, as I live in Hungary and the propaganda here is terrible.
    Another question is, do you think China or Russia can/will ever transition to democracy? I think both countries eventually should as they seem to be in dire situations, but maybe I'm just naive.

      Problem is, for a real democracy, you need educated and independent citizens, that are capable of understanding what is happening to their country and vote accordingly, be financially literate enough that they don't allow oligarchs to take advantage of them etc. The only way you'll get a system change in Russia or China, is if the current model stops working, in which case I reckon it would be a repeat of the 90s in Russia, where people were not economically literate enough to understand what is happening in their country, many of them lost out in that chaos, and now associate democracy with chaos and bad times.

      @Poctyk Před měsícem +1

      Idk about China but for Russia change will have to come at some point. I have no idea what kind of change it will be. But current model is unsustainable.
      For centuries, since the time of Muscovy, the economic model was pretty much "sell natural resources to keep elites, and what's important, Moscow fed". From fur to grain to oil+gas.
      But here is the thing, even without the war, Russia projected that oil extraction would drop, any kind of problem to get equipment and western expertise is just accelerating the trend predicted almost a decade ago. So we have drop in revenue to distribute, and no natural resource on the horizon will most likely be as profitable as oil+gas
      St the same time Moscow + region got absolutely massive over the last 30 years. So we have more mouth to keep happy. (regions barely matter, only Moscow + St. Petersburg does)
      You can't continue current system, while both supply and demand run contrary to the continuation of the system.
      At the same time, and this is more pseudo, current war will finally answer the question of "what kind of Russian nation Russia will be?" is it going to be more of a pan Russian project encompassing all of current Ukraine and Belarus or smaller project of basically just modern Russia. The question should've been answered in 1917 but since Soviets managed to reform the Empire, it was put on a shelf for 80 years. If Russia finally closes the old question it can finally move on.
      Or I can be wrong and Russian state will just tax it's own population harder, while feeding them the story of having to revise the past for the next century

    I am impressed with your analysis as most people who talk about "globalism" either leave out or under value the Brentonwood's accords which in terms of history was extraordinary. The one thing you may have left out is not only did the U.S. agree to use its Navy to keep the SLOCs open for trade but signatories to the accords could sell into the U.S. market (the largest by far at the end of WW2) . This was all done to battle the Soviets in the Cold War. The Cold War ended in 1992 (I know I was there) and I would argue that is when "Globalization" started to break down. It's been coasting to an end since. The Soviet Union is gone, the U.S. Navy has reoriented itself in terms of power projection over the last 20 years, the U.S. economy although still the largest it is not able to absorb all the inputs from all over the world. For how far apart they may seem, Biden and Trump's foreign policies are very similar. The U.S. has been heading back into one of its isolation periods, COVID just has speed it up. The world 10 years from now will look more like 1924 than 2024. Good work. Just one observation. "Trickle Down Economics" is not an economic model. Juding by your video you are a good researcher, do a search. You will find a lot of political articles, but you won't find an economic "school" or "policy." It's a common mistake. Again, you have done good work.

    I believe in capitalism. But I also believe in protectionism to a degree. When a country runs a huge trade surplus like China does. They are exporting their social problems along with their products to other countries such as America. Tariffs are a good way to make up for China, not having any environmental rules and not having, things like a social safety net for their people. In other words, they have an unfair advantage not to mention the government feeding money into targeted industries. Japanese used to do that too, and they were the first ones to start trashing the American economy. I want us to be competitive And hard-working here and God knows we need some reform of our tax system and a lot of the regulation. But in the end, those people who may have lost $3000 of their income through the tariff are probably gonna gain it back by having a better paying manufacturing job instead of having to work at McDonald’s.

But there were also a lot of people who could not compete and missed out. Also, importing crucial good from criminal, quasi-lawless countries, which *most* countries still are is a huge risk.

      Let me clear up what I mean. I agree that national suplus and global trade is beneficial to all involved and for example is essential to food security in many countries. This creates inherent risk via globalism for these countries' food security as countries are usually reliant on a few nations for their food/fertilizer imports. See the spike in global prices related to the Ukraine war. For better or worse this exists now and the problem is "globalism" is such a vague term that doesn't actually identify anything involved and seems to tangle in free trade, global trade and a range of other bullshit.
      I never suggested we throw away global trade, i use globalism in the ideological sense and not the economic sense as the belief in free trade with all countries (non democracies included) rather than global economics itself. Imo we are likely entering a period of trading blocks and tariffs in response to the failings of the global free trade system to decrease the risks involved. Global trade has and always will take place in the modern world (as a function of resource distribution in industrial societies).

      It’s not like they moved their military shipyards over to China. They moved stuff like making plastic forks and knives overseas, not aircraft carriers.

    Isolationism is great until you consider that we would have to pay back the debt. As world's default currency, we have not had to worry about inflation even as we keep borrowing . When US loses credibility globally, China will replace the dollar as world currency. I am not a economist but imagining nobody buying US bond and you keep printing money to pay for interest and thus making dollar cheap. $34 trillion of it to pay back is not a pretty picture.

      Not going to happen. The biggest holder of US Debt is the US taxpayer. 34 trillion is about 120% of US GDP. but only about 20% of US net worth. If say China wanted their money back we just print the money, (the debt is in dollars). Nothing changes.

      @@charlesk2270 Like I said, I am not an economist but US govt tax income is 5 trillion a year and we owe other countries 7.4 trillion. I imagine flouding the market with US dollar would cheapen the dollar, making imports exponenentially expensive, increasing inflation internally. And since the dollar is worthless, I imagine all the dollars floating out there in the world would eventually come back which is about 6.5 trillion and remember assets are worth the price of what people are willing to pay for, so sound balance sheet now isn't guranteed when assets can't be redeemed to their present value,not to mention the shock to global system that could eventually lead to major war....... IDK, i am not smart enough to figure it out but too much unknown for my taste and I believe it to be too much of a shock to the system. I wish someone could point me to a video that could lead to a more educated opinion.

      Your right the currency will decline rapidly in value. Educated/Skilled/Wealthy immigrants will also stop immigrating to USA (which developed most of the newest tech companies). China can’t become the most powerful country in the world but if USA becomes isolated then we will give it to them.

      The other thing you didn't consider is that if the value of the US Dollar falls in comparison to other currencies, then exports become more competitive. Also, in an environment you described, then inflation would also increase, which naturally eats away at debt. And what would happen is that if the US Bond devalues from a lack of foreign demand, more US financial institutions would step in because it is a government backed asset class, which would offset that or at least put a floor on it. Everything has a natural market reaction.
