How We Build An Economic Future For All | interview with #ThomasPiketty

A good overview to illustrate why Carney and Klein think he's the antichrist 🤣

It is a bold vision for a new economic order: The #GlobalJusticeReport, led by star-economist #ThomasPiketty, models a global economy that could reconcile planetary boundaries and prosperity for all by 2100. How is it done? By taxing the ultra rich and transferring their shareholder power towards a World Sovereign Fund. Thomas Piketty joins Dissens to talk about the report and how socialists can win the battle for the hearts and minds. Find the full episode here: https://blogs.taz.de/dissenspodcast/gjr/

"Considerations must also be made with the possibility in mind that AI investments have created a bubble. Both in terms of a technical bubble, where technology does not function well enough to deliver the value claimed, and an economic bubble, where investors lose faith in AI companies and pull capital as investing becomes unsustainable."

But then immediately goes on to list mediations for the deployment of a tech they themselves admit IT DOESNT WORK.

I love how they ALL sidestep that 'innocuous' observation, oh and by the way, not unlike #NaomiKlein dismissing #ThomasPiketty as a fringe kook in two phrases scattered in her book.

Then again, perhaps, like me and John Cage, they are actually eager to smash The System? Perhaps I should enthusiastically endorse them.

If we ever do get such news in English North America, I have yet to see it. #ThomasPiketty does, however, show in continental Europe now and then, taunting with crazy notions like:

"A report coordinated by the economist suggests: it is possible to eliminate poverty, reduce working hours by half and curb global warming. Prerequisites: frontal attack on inequality and political and economic transformation. What are the paths?"

Lese gerade das hier und es ist super interessant! So viele Zusammenhänge gut aufgezeigt, super informativ! #bookstodon #BooksofMastodon #kapitalUndIdeologie #thomasPiketty

Seit gut dreißig Jahren begleitet uns eine Erzählung wie ein leises Grundrauschen: Der Staat habe „zu wenig Geld“, um „soziale Geschenke“ zu verteilen. Mal wird sie in Nachrichten wiederholt, mal in Sonntagsreden variiert, mal als ökonomische Selbstverständlichkeit verkauft. Und irgendwann fragt niemand mehr, ob die Worte, mit denen wir über unser Zusammenleben sprechen, überhaupt […]

It is curious, and perhaps you know of a reason why, but I notice #ThomasPiketty is never mentioned in #canpoli discourse.

Thomas #Piketty:
"Eine andere Erklärung, die mir plausibler erscheint und besser mit den ermittelten Fakten übereinstimmt, ist die, dass diese Führungskräfte ihre Vergütung in großem Umfang selbst festlegen können – wobei sie sich manchmal hemmungslos bedienen – und dass diese häufig in keinem erkennbaren Verhältnis zu ihrer individuellen Produktivität steht, die im Übrigen in Großunternehmen sehr schwer zu messen ist."

Excellent interview in the #FT #FinancialTimes with French economist #ThomasPiketty, on inequality and the choices facing democratic politicians. h/t Prof @ChrisMayLA6

"the pro-business centre has to choose between the nationalist side and the socialist side. And if you don’t want to choose, the pro-business centre will disappear".

More quotes in my reply.
