Conversations with History: Elizabeth Warren

GILLERANUSA Says:

May 18, 2009 - Money Politics are like oil vinegar. We're already presiding over the collapse of the middle class. Skyrocketing unemployment, pervasive predatory lending, foreclosures, bankrupcies, the collapse of consumer protections, frozen consumer credit markets. All your fears have come true. Good luck with the result of your increased credit in PA - your 'values' will, no doubt, be well-rewarded by your new friends the banks. from a CT Conservative + 20 yr. Wall St. veteran.

Jun 19, 2009 - Most of intellectual highly educated western women speaks with this speed? She speaks slowly but often abruptly too fastly trembling head and hands. I want to hear her.

Jun 21, 2009 - I don't understand what you mean.

Jul 1, 2009 - Despite the enormity of the task facing us, there is a good place to start where we can gain swift traction, and that is with microdecisions the innumerable individual economic decisions financial professionals and consumers make every day on a global basis. To be clear, Im not talking about trivial mini-decisions. Microdecisions are the fundamental building blocks of the economic system on all levels. This [financial] crisis started one mortgage at a time, Laurent Pacalin CMO at FICO

Jul 6, 2009 - She makes I believe a logical argument failure. If a 1971 family needed 1 earner and 50% of income to meet fixed incomes, a 1970 family needed 26 paychecks to meet fixed expenses and then the rest for variable expenses, a 2000 family needed 77 Paychecks to meet fixed expenses and 26 paychecks to cover variable expenses.

Aug 15, 2009 - A poster below said that "money Politics are like oil vinegar." I would say they are more like two sides of the same coin. It is with good reason that the early modern economic thinkers - Ricardo, Smith etc. - were referred to as POLITICAL ECONOMISTS. We do not have an economy, but a political economy. Today's bourgeois apologists will do anythning to obscure this fact...

Aug 23, 2009 - I find it soothing listening to this woman speak, and she looks delightful.

AudreyBoston Says:

Sep 7, 2009 - At least she doesn't look like a slob the way Christopher Hitchens does!

verdaccio Says:

Sep 15, 2009 - so smart she sexy

croutonfada Says:

Sep 24, 2009 - Funny though that as much of a slob as Hitchens looks at t imes no one on his episode of this show even mentions it, they talk about morals, courage and issues he brings up. This woman deserves more than comments on her appearance; she ain't Britney Spears.

Oct 8, 2009 - easy solution: cut your current cards into pieces, dont get new ones, and dont pay them back a dime. the banks and credit card companies would fold liek the house of cards that they are...

Dean0000007 Says:

Oct 8, 2009 - If you have time. Look over Elizabeth Warrens lecture on "collapse of the middle class". I believe her point is that more and more modern families are relying on credit to pay for necessities. Wages are not keeping up with inflation for a large majority of the population.

JuanVoyce Says:

Oct 17, 2009 - CMO Laurent - Can a macro economic disease be cured with micro actions to spur "swift traction"? Making a parallel between community health and community financial-health, the answer is no. In London in the summer of 1665 the Black Death showed its face. The micro solution was to nail shut the doors of those who were stricken, and for the passerby to keep their noses in "rings", or small bouquets of posies--to deflect the toxic fog. By summer's end 15% of the population were dead.

Ameliab2005 Says:

Nov 21, 2009 - Hey, just two minutes ago before finding this video I thought the same damned thing. This girl rocks my socks!

Ameliab2005 Says:

Nov 21, 2009 - bobbygnosis, i sort of get what you mean, but like you said--that idea is way off the stratosphere for money-lovers. Living w/o money is like life w/o water.

bobbygnosis Says:

Nov 21, 2009 - Only to those who value material. I do not value material or money and so my bfavorite things are helping people and enjoying whatever I can out of life. I feel that its most unfortunate that greedy people have coerced us into living a life completely dependant on money in order to survive. This is a travesty. We could use our minds for so many things that would be so much better than tabulating money earned/spent. This idea is not conventional, though. We're better than mere money.
