1. I love Chrystia Freeland! I watched both of these segments. Thanks for posting them.

I love the history that is included here. It reminded me of an Econ course I had in Grad school, getting a masters in liberal studies. It was more historical/philosophical/cultural/sociological than just the math equations of the great economist thinkers over the century. So I got some contours of the debates on economic theory.

Her story about the rich of our era (as opposed to F.Scott Fitzgerald's) is very interesting.
