    I admire both of these economists. Without getting too much into politics, I consider these two gentleman to be one of "the good guys". I became familiar with Blanchard because he worked with Stanley Fischer alot, and you see them co-writing papers alot etc.

      +Rubin4749 indeed i struggle sometimes with economics because at a certain level you just have to "trust" certain viewpoints/people because it is a social science, and these two seem indeed decent guys.

      You like their 'performance', when Americans learn how thoroughly they've been deceived. See Even at the Doors.

      You can not call them the good guys without getting too much into politics.

    When they discuss schools of macro that exist (reference made to Robert Lucas, Edward Prescott; then people in their camp), they set forth an understandable summary of the current major dispute. It occurs maybe an hour in, but it is worth finding.

      +Marlon Griffing I don't understand; why not just say the time. You obviously watched it. You can see the timestamp. Why not be precise?

      I think he was saying that the video had played through, and he had closed the page and then went back to read the comments. Thus he would have to wait while the whole hour and a quarter (or at least as deep into the video as the part he was looking for) downloaded to give the time.

    35:00 Look at what has happened to Argentina by now (2019), after years of the attempt at "expansionist contraction". I guess it's one example of "success" less...

    Re: Time of the schools of thought discussion. I closed the presentation before I read the comments, thus I could not see the time stamp.

    Does the transfer of wealth and associated purchasing power away from the middle income to the wealthy affect the economy negatively.

      Human being history teaches us today that men are driving by greediness and selfish. It doesn't matter if they are living in around enough natural resources or not.

      Anybody can grow out of the golden rule. Nobody can spend more than it income because got bankrupt sooner or later. The grow on debt by the credit bankers offer is a real formula to die sooner or later. There is not a legal business that can pay interest rate more than inflation plus 1. High demand driven by publicity is wrong for nature. Governments failed to tackle people growth by universal and quality of the study. Corruption, greediness, and selfishness are the formula for human extinction we are facing without seeing that wall very close. There is not a complex mathematics and economy formula to understand the right way to grow in a lifetime for everyone.

    a lot of back patting. very little substance of HOW to save the global economy. What about secular stagnation and how to fight it? Rise of the robots ? colapse of productivity? soaring inequality? Only one piece of thinking out of the box..raising the wages across the board in japan, i liked that one. Anyway a bit of a dissapointment this video.

      +Marutan Ray you realize the ENTIRE basis of liberalism is ABOUT disagreement right? That's the very reason why Liberalism exists, to counter the status quo, etc. Also, democracy and democratic government was founded and is advocated on the left, and not the right. Just in case you were confused in thinking otherwise.

      Conservatives like liberal policies. As long as they've been enacted 30 years ago. They're always opposed to programs like taking lead out of gasoline. When it's proposed they're calling it a communist plot. However, when the lead is out of gasoline for a few decades then they're not in favour of putting it back in.
      They also strongly assert that capitalism got the lead out of gasoline.
