Barry's Economics: How power really wins (and what we can do about it). [View all]

Barry is a brilliant, young radical economist in Britain who posts regularly on YouTube. He grew up working-class poor, and because he was a math genius, ended up becoming a millionaire stock trader. Now he is one of the leading intellectuals discussing inequality and what we can do about it.

Highly recommended for his debunking of conventional economic beliefs and strategies.

Here is a short, (6 min) post about how to oppose their power. he argues forcefully for a wealth tax, and dissects arguments against it in many of his videos.
