No wonder big boss hired Tony Abbott (British rule) and Scott Morrison (hegemony) to protect its interest and through our nation into new endeavours which general public has no voting rights, false narratives and threats behind the scene make us confused
Yanis is walking talking evidence that International Socialism isn't significantly different than National Socialism. Both are totalitarian ideologies, but one smiles nicely while it oppresses.
Military base … 😂 800 US military bases in the world … Which country can match it?
😂😂😂😂😂
You could tell anything to these people they d bealive 😂😂
He was just banned by Gemany police for telling the truth on Gaza.
Tax larcenously and the cash cows will expatriate. This is why Dubai is popular. Only the losers are collectivists. The winners are individualists. Parasitism has consequences. If one is levied confiscatory taxation, one cannot build a fortune efficiently. Ergo, one relocates.
I find it very disturbing, to hear about anyone still buying anything off Amazon..they have become a bigger Walmart..selling 99% Chinese Crap..and if you disagree..ask yourself, how long does all that crap last? Not very long! ..buy products made in your own country, when you can..or at the least..maybe Japanese products..they still make decent products! And the Australians should not have goven China that long lease, 99 yrs? For that Port..just my opinion. And as long as Australia is selling coal to China ..thete doing a disservice to the environment..China & India are the worlds biggest polluters!!😢
He's dead wrong about EV's..and green energy. It's not only a no win enterprise, it does more damage to the environment. He's right about getting out of the USA's strangle hold on international finance..mostly because of the Swift payment system..if Australia wants a good future..they should join the BRICS nations..I'm an American..so my joining BRICS is impossible..but I see the end of the U.S. dollar,as the worlds reserve currency, just around the corner!
Utopia = Communism. This guy is throwing big words out of his ass… If investing in the green deal and social housing for youth are the big solutions to a bankrupt and medieval system of Europe & Australia…then good luck. Think on it, follow the rationale and then picture where the money goes…to China…CCP salutes. Stop listening to these new age Marxists and use your head guys…private capital creates wealth…state interventionalism creates socialism and dictatorship
I think should be called Cold War 2.0, that's exactly what it is. China was smart to integrate the global markets but at the same time they are isolated from the US dominated tecnnofeudalism Varoufakis mentions, pretty much the same for Russia. This war will not happen to dominate see , land or air but the digital world , they know how easy this type of technology can escalate so the most import is to destroy or simple buy all competition ….
I very subtle philosophy that allow the left point of view without taking in account the games the neo communist moves coming from China. Taxing to the way that stagnant the Greece Economy. Geopolitical friend of the death of Capital and what in replace ???
ledgend!
He is right on in regard to WeChat!
It allows people to buy and sell a stick of gum – as if using cash – neither the buyer nor the seller pays "interest" to the WeChat host in the at or any transaction.
I love listening to someone who thinks about the global economies like an engineer – what happens is the result of a machine – undersihow the machine works allows seeing what doesnt work, unintended consequence, and potential improvements. Global economics does not exist "by itself" – it needs to be understood in the context of its use. He does a great job of clarifying
"LEST WE FORGET"
Please check this new Economic theory, It can answer the need of a new economic system… It is called PROUT, Progressive Utilization Theory. One of its main principle is to limit the acummulation of private wealth
Because of people like him Trump and Co are proliferate.
Economists monsense
Thank you for the event. To your guest, Yanis Varoufakis and to Tom Connell of Sky News your questions about the big tech corps
Of course, higher taxes, "Green Hydrogen", and carbon credits, who would've though thats the solution for all of our problems. Fucking commies.
❤👍 Thanks your support.
Mr variufakis, this is a masterclass Lecture that even me being ignorant with not deep knowledge, but you have described to the tee what is really happening in this Pyramid Financial corrupt system in US. Has killed middle class, open war & scrutiny in every penny people who lives paycheck to paycheck, homeless when during Covid lots of real estate buildings (no industry) for “ people with disposable incomes me” & local state government complains about homelessness, broken roads , financing the reality shows ( like a slap in the face) taxes everything even every sequence of our breath, except alcohol… drugs boutiques flourish, & hypocrisy of campaigning to get some food drives while the slogan “ 1 in 10 children “ in US goes hungry!
It’s mind blowing
Higher education should be free, but we need to get rid of all the politics, the BS, the corruption, disccrimination, the fake instructors/professors, and etc. Why do I say fake instructors/professors? Because US education doesn't teach people how to do their jobs. The same exists in Australia. Therefore, if Australia wants their education system to be successful, they need to hire people that have real-word and quality experience with the ability and passion to teach.
Damn it, I always thought Yanis was one of the clever guys. Now he speaks for the crazy carbon fearing idiots. Green economy? My goodness..
i dont like that he based masculinty right out the bat. He also doesn't support Ukraine as much as he should and this is inexcusable. Zero promises were made for NATO not to expand, some comments were made not to go east of Berlin but zero state signed documentation. All nations who joined did bc they wanted.
His theory is very interesting but he ignores the insidious and violent nature of the CCP in a big way
EU has GDPR which restricts a lot of financial service, but most people would say that privacy is very good!
Australia has very large technofeudalism… its very bad
A Marxist with a failed country . Bowed to German masters
You remind me and look like comrad sonny puzakis
