Though I'm not especially economically literate, I think I understood most of it. I have two main issues:<br /><br />(1) Duncan prefers the current administration's approach to the ongoing financial crisis to the libertarian alternative because "it's better to die ten years from now than to die now." By which he means that *both* approaches lead inevitably to a second Great Depression, but the current approach at least delays it for a few years. This is unpersuasive, to put it mildly. Granted that going cold turkey on further indebtedness will bring about an immediate crash, mightn't it make that crash shorter and shallower than going *all in* with ever-increasing government spending on whatever strikes Barack Obama's fancy? Duncan doesn't even address this question. That is a mistake.<br /><br />(2) Duncan's own preferred "solution" seems, frankly, silly. Go *all in* on further indebtedness, just like Obama/Bernanke - but dump it into "transformative 21st-century technologies like renewable energy, genetic engineering, biotechnology and nanotechnology" - just on the off chance that something might turn up and change the game?<br /><br />I.e., "let a thousand Solyndra's bloom!"<br /><br />I mean, what could possibly go wrong?<br /><br />That said, I agree that the interview is fascinating, and frightening, and everybody, especially libertarians, ought to read it and think about it.vinteuilhttp://theforvm.org/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-8622218649410376502012-11-21T08:01:18.304-08:002012-11-21T08:01:18.304-08:00"Hunsdon said...

It's been proven many times over that whites will happily, gleefully screw themselves if they can be convinced that some policy is necessary in order to 'fight racism.' <br /><br />Sure, most people will 'fight racism,' but their motivation is to fight racism against themselves. That's true even when it's, say, a latino fighting against anti-black racism. Deep down his feelings about blacks aren't much different to the 'racists' he's fighting against, but what he's really fighting against isn't to prevent racism against blacks, it's to prevent a change of direction or overflow to racism against his own kind. If you look you will notice that no non-white groups bother to fight anti-white racism. That's because they're all agreed that anti-white racism is in their interests. Don't bother trying to explain this to white people, though. Lol, white people.

Credit growth on this scale has been taken for granted as natural; but in fact it is something entirely new under the sun—only made possible because the US broke the link between dollars and gold. This explosion of credit created today’s world... Not only did it make the global economy much bigger than it would have been otherwise, it changed the nature of the economic system itself.

Years and years of white guilt and intellectual laziness have made crying "racism" a rather effective way to shut someone up. So lots of people use it.<br /><br />It's not that they're never right--sometimes, the person they're accusing of racism really is a racist. It's not that they're always defending the wrong side--this clown would make the same magic word argument whether Rice was the very picture of competence or so inept she couldn't find the ladies' room. <br /><br />This tells you nothing about Rice or her attackers. It only tells you that the guy making this argument is trying to shut his opponents up with a cheap shot.
