As an engineer, in the US Capitalist system, we designed appliances to fail, on purpose, shortening their life span, from 30-40 years, to 10 years. It is called design obsolescence. We put a tiny cheap part in these new appliances, as a design feature, so they fail. This new phenomenon is in monopolies, which have no competition, such as Whirlpool. They have bought up all competition, and don’t worry about losing market share, if their product is inferior. Design Obsolescence creates profits, while destroying our natural resources, as we put perfectly good appliances, in the landfill, so that a corporation can make profits. I find this practice unethical. And it is rampant in modern day Capitalism.

Lex, heading your finishing line again, that I’m a “Deadly Bastard”, literally made me laugh out loud. It was a pleasure to talk with you. Thank you for the invitation (and the opportunity to indulge my inner geek, thanks to you, and see Starbase).

The high sparrow from Game of Thrones has a side job as an economist. Who knew? Great conversation, as always.

I bought his book "Debunking Economics" back in the day (15 years ago??) and I was 1 of a small handful of people who voted for him to represent New South Wales in the Australian Senate (his party was a micro party that didn't have money or run a big campaign... hence he didn't have a chance). I'm always surprised why he hasn't become more well known, but his perspective is worth observing when trying to navigate the complex field of economics.

Regarding Bolsjeviks and Mensheviks. I fervently believe that if it wasn't for the Bolsjevik revolution, i.e. if the Mensheviks more reformist vision had prevailed, a large part of the modern social democratic societies of Europe never would have come about, simply because capitalists were forced to make consessions for fear of a revolution, where they would lose their power and privilege altogether. This is also a major reason why since the collapse of the Soviet Union, we have seen capitalists reassert power in the west and welfare societies are being gradually dismantled.

One of my biggest “issues” with economics has always been what Lex pointed out in his question, “do they not consider a worker a human being?” They really don’t when you read economics. Workers aren’t viewed as humans nor are the consequences of lay offs or other actions that affect workers are considered as particularly bad. The idea is that the workers will just learn a new trade (which is totally not how it works in real life).

You can tell Lex really liked his guest because he challenged him all the time. When he hosts a "dangerous" interviewee he's usually very careful when to chime in and go for a tough question. First example that comes to my mind was the exchange about "friction" with Douglas Murray.

I had the pleasure of having Steve as an university lecturer many years ago - he was as brilliant then as he is now.

Lex's best podcast as a very capable interviewer. Keen is intellectual but accessible and breaks down a complex area of his expertise. Lex did a good job. I think his most confident at pushing back, but objectively.

I am amazed by Keynes mind because of the mental gymnastics he has to do to avoid facts presented to him by Austrians or just reality

Perfect timing to hear this wonderful talk. I do so appreciate Lex and your wit and being ok with not knowing and asking a most fundamental and yet powerful question of: "What is money?" and then in a incisive manner offer this: “That is not French it is another language and I will explain it to you another day….” My wife who is French never understood why this idiom is used in English. Thank you
