    I think if you read any book on American history, you'd find it's really not that complicated 😂
    Lots of fancy words to cover up for historic injustices here and I guess to come from this series

      This series is about uncovering and recovering from injustices. Not covering them up.

    A headline must be changed to "What is Social-economic Mobility". He "puts on the table" many rare concepts, so he must provide the script of his talk, not computer-generated.

    Mobility is only an issue in societies with high inequality based on capitalism and competition. Even the Nordics have high inequality. A capitalist society with perfect potential mobility can have low actual mobility. In a perfectly equal society, mobility is not an issue.

      @@colinbaer1022 mathematically, they are correct. The Great Gatsby Curve only includes nation-states and doesn't look at various egalitarian cultures. Mobility isnt an issue for many hunter-gatherers as status comes with age and wealth is shared. No need to even mention communism, but while we're on the topic of half dying of starvation, may I remind you that Britian colonized over 20% of the world and starved its colonies to feed itself (31 famines in India alone during British rule). 90% of the Native American population was also wiped out. Capitalism starved far more people, the ones that it fed are just happier about it.
