It [like all of his talks] is a great show....and VERY depressing. Every wonder what life in the Middle Ages was like for the Serfs?...according to Hudson, you won't have to wait long to find out....
Yeah, it's all of the above. A sensational show and horribly depressing. Latvia and Iceland are the prototypes for the rest of us.
Thanks for posting this link Maggie. I was unfamiliar with Dr. Michael Hudson, but he's up there with the great and genuine economists like Stiglitz and Krugman. He's very good at putting things in understandable, and entertaining, terms.
And speaking of Stiglitz, former chief economist of the World Bank who has outed their tactics, I have to read Hudson's book Super Imperialism on the World Bank and IMF. Has anyone here read it?
