🔥 ■ Un Premio Nobel de Economía advierte de por qué políticos como Ayuso hablan tanto de "la libertad" ■ "Ese es el punto que la derecha no entiende".

#JosephStiglitz, Ökonom:
"Wenn diese Politik vielen Menschen schadet – warum unterstützen so viele, vor allem wirtschaftlich Schwache, dennoch Donald #Trump?Das ist die Folge von Jahrzehnten enttäuschter Erwartungen. Seit Carter wurde versprochen, dass #NeoliberalePolitik Wachstum und geteilten Wohlstand bringen würde. Tatsächlich wuchs die Wirtschaft langsamer, und fast alle Gewinne gingen an die Spitze. Das erzeugte Wut und Enttäuschung, die durch #SozialeMedien und #Desinformation weiter angeheizt wurden. Viele Menschen leben in einem Informationsumfeld, das so verzerrt ist, dass sie Wahrheit und Lüge kaum noch unterscheiden können – auch wegen gezielter Irreführung durch die Trump-Regierung."
Er hat Recht!

The on-line Jubilee 2000 article is great: It may have been what motivated me to go to Fukuoka for the Jubilee 2000 march drring the Kyushu/Okinawa G-8 summit. I have the Rogue States book around here somewhere but I don't think I got very far into it. Curiously, I seem to be able to finish more serious books with an ebook reader. I can switch back and forth among docs, a novel, and a heavy (economic, military, systemic, I guess) atrocity book without losing any of them. And then I can stay engaged while taking a reading break by getting the .epub up on a real PC screen for quoting and checking out the sources... The book's version is better: I guess it's been edited and probably gone through iterative development as the article is worked over and used for the basis of talks too. The book's Jubilee 2000 chapter has a lot more sources, and I noticed a line that had been made more precise too.
.> A complementary approach might invoke the old-fashioned capitalist idea that those who borrow are responsible for repayment, and those who lend take the risk.

Whatever the system we have now is, it might not even by "capitalist" it's just corruption decorated with vague images about what Adam Smith mentioned like "the invisible hand" and not his aim which was that freedom would bring about equality. (That' s in another Chomsky work: the Democracy and Education speech he gave at Loyola Univeristy in the 90s).
.> The banks were eager to lend and upbeat about the prospects. On the eve of the 1982 disaster Citibank director Walter Wriston, known in the financial world as “the greatest recycler of them all,” described Latin American lending as so risk-free that commercial banks could safely treble Third World loans (as proportion of assets). After disaster struck, Citibank declared that “we don’t feel unduly exposed” in Brazil, which had doubled bank debt in the preceding 4 years, with Citibank exposure in Brazil alone greater than 100% of capital. In 1986, after the collapse of the international lending boom in which he was a prime mover, Wriston wrote that “events of the past dozen years would seem to suggest that we [bankers] have been doing our job [of risk assessment] reasonably well”; true enough, if we factor in the ensuing socialization of risk, welcomed by Wriston and others famous for their contempt of government and adulation of the free market.

" #socialmedia cos controlled by the super-rich .. are even less constrained in spreading #misinformation. Thanks to Section 230 of 1996 Communications Decency Act, US-based cos cannot be held liable for 3rd-party content hosted on their platforms - or for most of the other #socialharms they cause .. We can begin to enhance the well-being of all citizens fairly only when we leave neoliberal capitalism behind & do a much better job at creating the #sharedprosperity we acclaim" -

Segnalo questi articolo su #ilfattoquotidiano molto interessante dove si riportano le spiegazioni del premio nobel per l'economia #JosephStiglitz e il Prof. #TommasoFaccio, sul fatto per cui, secondo loro, la riforma della tassazione delle multinazionali è una beffa per i Paesi poveri. Soprattutto raccoglie MOLTO meno di quanto possibile.
Qui abbiamo le lobby economico-finanziarie che stanno giocando una partita globale con gli stati, con, finora, notevoli successi.

CW: Long thread/26
Late last year #JosephStiglitz and #RegmiIra published a thoroughgoing analysis of the causes of inflation, finding a mix of price-gouging, capacity failure, supply chain problems, higher rents (thanks to work-from-home) and shifts in the kinds of goods in demand (hand-santizer, home exercise equipment, etc):

CW: Long thread/16
This week, *#TheAmericanProspect* is conducting a deep, critical dive into these two models, and into the enterprise of modeling itself. The series kicks off today with a pair superb pieces, one from Nobel economics laureate #JosephStiglitz, the other from *Prospect* editor-in-chief @ddayen and #RakeenMabud, chief economist for the #GroundworkCollaborative.
