Alex. This talk is right up there with your discussions with Matt Ehert and Tom Luongo. What's better here is that we get more of your great analysis 🥰. Thank you in particular for the reminder of the beginnings of fractional banking. Essential stuff. Your take on AI is enlightening yet totally practical given the state of the "AI creators" today.
I have to agree with RP on Sachs-- your response is very respectful, but the old enablers of the deep state sorry don't get a pass now just because they MAY appeal to the "respectable society". Even Kissinger -whom I believe Sachs will kind of replace in his role of "society consigliere" -- was preferable. Guys like Sachs just lurk in the background and incite or mollify when it suits their needs.
The "respectable society' is a mass of technocrats who enable, who allow the stratification you are discussing here to continue.
Hi Carol, thank you for that - very kind. In my research for "Grand Deception," I looked closely at the role Sachs played in the whole disaster that were the 1990s in Russia. He really did diverge from others like David Lipton and Andres Aslund who completely fit your description. If anything, Aslund is still today bitter that they haven't done more damage to Russia and preferably completely destroy the country. So I must give Sachs the benefit of the doubt. He may be a Pied Piper, but he might be sincere.
