Never have I witnessed a politician with a more reasonable, accurate or deeper analysis of our situation than Mr Varoufakis, nor have I come across anyone before, proposing a political path so close to what I think is necessary, realistic and the right thing to do. I have been a supporter of "Die Linke" for some time now, in order to back the working class who is being squeezed by the few, and in order to preserve the planet getting ruined for the greed of the few. Not because I felt "politically at home" at "Die Linke", but there was simply no other party that even came close. DiEM25 changed that. Thanks! There is a vote, and a membership coming in...

He still hasn't figured out that those "racists and xenophobes" aren't so because of economy or poverty, but because of principles, which really shows that he doesn't know the kind of people the nations - NATIONS! - of Europe are. And how could he by zooming through the streets on a motorbike, shilling for climate change - a money hungry, globalist lobby? As for populism, there isn't anything inherently wrong about it, just that he's engaged in the same tactics people he criticizes are engaged in. If he stuck to the technical aspects of macro economy, he would've garnered more support also from the right, those evil "xenophobes." His movement, DiEM25, touts a lot of this new-age, neo-liberal lingo, like open borders, feminism, equality (this one always makes me laugh) and all that crap, it most definitely smells a lot like Open Society Foundation - just think of all the necessary resources that go into the public conferences, movement campaigns, public relations, personnel employment, co-hosting, space for rent and so on.

International relationships don't work like that. Vietnam has the GDP the size of Romania and decided to ban Glyphosate last month. They were able to do it because they are a self-governing country. Many countries including France wanted to do the exact ame thing but couldn't because they had to obey the EU. The EU IS the problem not the solution.

But not necessarily. There is no certain science when it comes to modern economic and financial policy, and since monopolists, oligarchs, big banks and financial speculators have not solved the problem it is time to try something different.

This is at least a hope my friend. Hopefully we can achieve something and if not at least we will fail doing something with right and justice, rather than laying down and allowing the current situation to continue to create a large poverty ridden underclass.

Very convincing.

The truth is a bitter pill to those it does not serve.

No mention of freedom; no talk of reducing the size and scope of State coercion. Πω πω πω, βρε Γιάννη...

Listening to this during Coronavirus pandemic is an eye opener... 500 bn eur, he says... where did I hear this number recently...?

I like his idealism but the idea that you can reform the undemocratic monolith of the EU is just so naive. You will never stop the project as it stands. It is outlined in the Four President's Report (you can read it online) : Capital Markets Union, then banking union, a manufactured new economic crisis and then fiscal consolidation. Finally, through these 'fixes' EU Law will reign supreme and individual sovereignty will be abolished.

That’s BS

Money is simply numbers. Numbers on screens and numbers on paper. But humans have been generationally conditioned to think these numbers are so special...and yet there just numbers. For economies to work numbers~ have to continuously flow~ but we've allowed the system to be designed so they Pile up! and this design flaw causes the system to crash. Everything we know about life requires flow: blood, chemistry, oxygen etc. But this is not the way the monetary systems of the world are designed! 1)We allow Banks to create the Publics currency as a Debt 2) We give them the power to Allocate this where they want. 3) we allow them to charge a compounding rental fee(interest) for money they create from thin air! Money begins in Banks and returns to banks, flows in circuits they choose, and money goes to money because interest grows exponentially. This amounts to a bad design. Money must flow like electricity or water we need a system based on life. Look up talks by Richard Werner, Ben Dyson, Bernard Litaer.

Because we live in a totalitarian state that controls the media and the narrative. They have an agenda that they do not want interrupted by people like us.

Pretty good TED talk.

I like Yanis but look EU needs dismantling in an orderly(ish) way before it dismantles itself in a disorderly if not explosive way.

I love listening to this man and his very passionate lectures on fixing the capitalist system which is broken poverty is on the rise. Inequality in so many ways. Jobs are harder to find pressure on people no money. Wages are very low in most European countries. People are suffering now as I speak. We have to stop all this bloody rhetoric and getting on with finding solutions now before we end up like the 1930s which was the Americans fault. The whole world suffered for years but president Roosevelt did amazing things in America to help people suffering. A very wonderful president.

This guys greatest influencer is karl marx and hes going to tell us how to fix europe?

Let's take the profits from the bank and give it to the poor, the comrade says. Not building infrastructure or helping small and medium businesses or reducing some taxes. Instead, let's give the money to the poor. How can anybody take him seriously?
