I respect the guy for the obvious abilities to think things through on his own and to find pearls among Marx's bag of lost marbles, but I think he misses the utility of blockchain tech. It allows us to automate white collar jobs (much like robots have been doing to blue collar jobs for decades). Cutting out highly-paid paper pushers actually helps all those who really do produce wealth by reducing the drag on capital. DeFi loans cost less for borrowers and bring in more money for the lenders by cutting out pointless bureaucracy and banking overhead. Moving capital to where it's most in demand is crucial to an efficient complex economy.

Michael Every has a realistic view of what is happening because he is looking at all of the facets of economic systems. Marx also wrote about "end stage capitalism." This is what is happening in the US. All of the wealth is going to the top and the Middle Class is disappearing. Why? My opinion is that a consumer middle class is no longer needed. When we were a manufacturing nation the Middle Class was necessary. End stage capitalism when it s finished looks much like Feudalism. It is very important that Michael is looking at all of the economic systems. Great Interview!

The basics of Marx's analysis of the problems with employer-employee structured enterprises (Capitalism) is at least as applicable today as it was when he was writing his articles and books. The approach of capturing the government to change the structuring of economies obviously does not work in the long run, and produces "state capitalism" (which no sane person should want to happen) even though that was NOT the ultimate goal of Marx and others. I like most people was completely ignorant of what Marx was actually proposing as the ultimate goal of economic revolution. It is very worthwhile for everyone to become more familiar with the ultimate goals of Marx, and the severe problems with the approach that was taken by the Soviet Union and China and most other "communist" countries.

Each successive government will apply new rules and regulation because the losers of capitalism will demand it from their elected officials.

I'm not sure what world you all live in. Capitalism is a labor relation and is characterized by accumulation. Under low regulation regimes, like we've experienced for the last four decades or more, wealth and power accumulates. The "free enterprise" system by definition requires some outside regulatory force to ensure a fair playing field. We need to bring back trust busting. An economy isnt an esoteric force. It is a human system for meeting human needs and wants. We need to set some rules to facilitate this.

Work was scorned and neglected by many, in favor of speculating in the stock of the Mississippi venture, where fortunes were being made weekly.

The can has been, and can still be kicked down the road (so long the US $ is the world reserve currency). We may not even hit a prolonged inflationary period, nor interest rate hikes; there are still ample deflationary forces at play.

Adam, Consumer sentiment and spending is 3/4 of the economy. As long as the consumer’s disposal income or net income (income + saving - debt ) is positively high, the spending will continue and so will the economy and the stock market. Could you dedicate one of your show in this perspective rather than inflation and QE. It seems to me consumer saving and income are still rising and therefore consumer spending will remain strong to drive the economy and the stock market. Thank you.

If the government insists on intervention into various businesses, then, yes there needs to be regulation such as a return to Glass-Steagall. Any business that government intervenes in will need a never ending increase in regulation. Or they could just allow the invisible hand to reward wise decisions and flush away the poor ones.

Adam Smith came up: The Father Of Free Trade - or so he is called. In his Wealth of Nations two scenarios are proposed where a Free Trade is NOT to be implemented: 1) When other Nations are dumping goods - bringing product and returning only with ballast 2) In National Security Issues - a rather broad concept. So, Free Trade is never absolute. A concept many so called Free Traders totally ignore. I very much like the guest’s opinion that: Why work if one can just swipe? Yes! What happens when no one works?

I agree. He's off his rocker. The reason we have concentrated power is because of Regulation and Gov't. Great example is FIND something untouched by Gov't - how is that industry doing? Example: I absolutely love music. I have stereo equipment that cost more than most people homes. But here is the key. This FREE market has delivered DOZENS of super, massive high quality products - you can spend a million dollars on a set of speakers now! And there are dozens more companies in the mid to high end systems (where your system could cost up to $50,000 for a system that approaches the very high end). Now, look at the LOWER end. ALL stereo equipment is getting better and the sound out of consumer end music is very good. Even more, digital music through services like Tidal are approaching old vinyl w/$20K turntable were you can hear all great depth and grace of a beautiful voice giving a vision of the lips moving. Conclusion: FREE MARKETS create unbelievable products. FREE MARKETS create advances in technology through competition that benefits the high AND low end of the product spectrum. There are hundreds of examples fo free markets building a better world, and hundreds of examples of Gov't regulation/interference tearing it down. Like healthcare (don't get me started).

Central bank’s policy is not the only cause of the labor shortage. The demand from the higher compensation of labor is part of the inflationary process just as the higher price of asset, commodities etc.

Thank you. Very informative talk. But could you please, regarding to the future of China - or any other country - at least mention how cruelly the respective system treats its citizens? I mean, doesn't that also play a role when you philosophize about which system will prevail? It's not just about how much money people have in their pockets, but also how freely they can lead their lives. And that they don't disappear when they criticize the government. Thank you.

I think the economists, big banks and Wall Street today do understand what is going on and just go from ever bigger bubbles and busts while vacuuming up all the money. As the song goes (the man in the suit has just bought a new yacht on the profit he made on your dreams

Chinese local governments are also $8 trillion in debt, and much of their income comes from property development.

I used to grow corn and raise cattle. Now I develop Rubbishcoin. La vie est belle.

The way I understand how he summarized capitalism according to Marx leads me to believe it is flawed. One doesn't start with Money (M). One starts with a service or product. They trade this service or product and obtain M. If they use M to buy something and sell it for M+, then they made a profit. This does not prove that inflation is a necessary part of the system. Loss is as important as profit in capitalism. Loss teaches capitalists valuable lessons and steers them away from producing in low demand areas. Loss keeps the misalocation of resources in check. A manipulated market will pump money into failing or lagging sectors and cause false demand which leads to major resource misallocation. To start with M one must either inherit it or steal it. Inheritance is an aspect of capitalism, but not the foundation of the system. The capitalist system does not benefit from theft. Theft harms the fundamentals of the system. Capitalism does not support centralized power concentrations. The nature of competition keeps power in check as long as the competitive field is ooen and unencumbered by manipulative regulations and other coercive practices. We do not live in a free capitalist society. Ours is highly regulated and centrally manipulated. Fiat currency is printed at will and dumped all over the market, which has created toxic distortions and misallocations. Your version of Marx's summary of capitalism describes this manipulated version of an economic system which is incorrectly labeled as capitalism.

Excellent interview!

Great interview. I will disagree with Michael regarding regulation: too many regulations in the U.S. have enabled those at the top (those who pay for the politicians on our ballots, try researching how much it actually costs to run for office...) and stifle competition. When government picks winners and losers, this ultimately hurts the consumer and destroys the smaller business - who can't afford to enter the marketplace, much less compete. Meanwhile, the oversized players who pay for our elected officials fail (almost on purpose, it feels like) and get a bailout. Other than that, some excellent thoughts, here.
