The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (06/27/2024): 3:05pm- According to a report from Axios's Alex Thompson, former First Lady Michelle Obama is refusing to campaign on behalf of Joe Biden leading up to the 2024 presidential election—citing frustrations with how the Biden family has treated Hunter Biden's ex-wife Kathleen Buhle. 3:15pm- Presidential Debate Night: How desperate is Joe Biden for a good night? According to new polling from The New York Times/Sienna College, Donald Trump now leads Biden in national polling 48% to 44%. Similarly, Quinnipiac University's most recent data shows Trump leading by 4-points—with his lead expanding to 6-points when considering third party candidates. 3:35pm- While appearing on CNN with host Kaitlan Collins, Speaker of the House Mike Johnson said—despite jokes—no one actually expects President Joe Biden to be on “cocaine” during Thursday night's presidential debate. But a report from The New York Post reveals it isn't uncommon for executives to take Adderall, Botox, and B12 shots before big events/speaking engagements.

Lotter notes, according to polling, Trump is starting to pull away from Biden—could tonight's debate ultimately amount to a knockout blow? Plus, Santa Ana City Council is now asking voters to decide whether noncitizens should be permitted to participate in local elections. The America First Policy Institute recently filed a lawsuit to prevent undocumented migrants from voting in elections. 4:30pm- Ross Connolly—Northeast Regional Director of Americans for Prosperity—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy's plan to hold a fundraiser for President Joe Biden. Americans for Prosperity is holding a rally to “welcome” President Biden to Garden State and, in the process, make it clear that Bidenomics is not working for Americans. You can learn more about the rally here: https://x.com/ConnollyRoss/status/1806408613033882041 4:45pm- Steven Nelson and Diana Glebova of The New York Post, write: “The White House Correspondents' Association blasted CNN on Thursday in a last-ditch attempt to expand access to the evening's first presidential debate of 2024 to reporters outside the network. The debate between President Biden and former President Donald Trump was brokered by the campaigns and will be different from past showdowns in its lack of an audience and the muting of microphones when a speaker's time is up. The move means TV viewers may entirely miss off-mic remarks and that coverage will be limited to what CNN cameras show at the time—with CNN moderators Dana Bash and Jake Tapper expected to be the only journalists in the room if there is other related significant news to tell. Reps for both Biden, 81, and Trump, 78, said it would be OK to allow the daily White House press pool to observe the face-off, but CNN allegedly refused. The Atlanta-based cable news outlet has instead relegated journalists unaffiliated with CNN to another building.” You can read the full article here: https://nypost.com/2024/06/27/us-news/wh-correspondents-slam-cnn-for-excluding-outside-press-from-biden-trump-debate/ 5:05pm- Congressman Wesley Hunt—U.S. Representative for Texas's 38th District—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his participation in a conversation with Black Americans who own small businesses. During the conversation at a barbershop in Atlanta, Georgia, Rep. Hunt was joined by Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL), Dr. Ben Carson, and former President Donald Trump. According to a recent poll from The New York Times/Sienna College, Donald Trump has 30% support with Black voters—he won only 12% of the vote in 2020. Could this newfound support be enough to swing the 2024 election in Trump's favor? 5:40pm- Listeners weigh-in on tonight's presidential debate: Who do you think will win? And will it ultimately have an impact on the election? 5:50pm- While appearing on CNN with host John Berman, Vivek Ramaswamy argued that Thursday's CNN presidential debate will likely be biased against Donald Trump—noting that it would be like Joe Biden doing a debate hosted by Fox News. 6:05pm- Andy Bloom—President of Andy Bloom Communications & former Communications Director for Rep. Michael R. Turner (R-OH)—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his latest article for Broad & Liberty, “Is Joe Biden really a ‘good and decent man?'” You can find the article here: https://broadandliberty.com/2024/06/26/andy-bloom-is-joe-biden-really-a-good-and-decent-man/ 6:20pm- Election Analyst Nate Silver says, “the presidential election isn't a toss up” and that, according to his data, Donald Trump has a 65.7% chance of winning.

Me flipa el episodio de The bear en Copenhague. Marcus, que está de prácticas en el Noma, le pregunta a su jefe cómo se hizo bueno en esto. La contestación de Luca es cautivadora: «Esto trata menos de habilidad y más de estar abierto. Hacia el mundo, hacia ti mismo, hacia los demás. Las cosas increíbles que yo he comido no se explican por una habilidad excepcional o una técnica sofisticada, se explican porque alguien se inspiró. Puedes pasar todo el tiempo del mundo aquí, pero si no pasas tiempo suficiente allí fuera. Ayuda, claro, estar rodeado de gente buena». Marcus le pregunta entonces si mereció la pena, a lo que Luca responde: «No lo sé, pregúntame mañana».

How would she feel about the first-ever U.S. default? How does she feel about high inflation? My guest, Jon Hilsenrath, a senior correspondent of the Wall Street Journal, tells us exactly how Secretary Yellen feels about inflation (a stain on her record), and would feel about the first-ever U.S. default (heart attack!). And he also explains how she was compelled to take this job — a job she initially declined. “These are fucking people!” shouted Janet Yellen as she pounded the table. But it was not vulgarity. It was passion about the plight of people, people who are more than numbers, people who deserve better policies. Secretary Yellen has been worried about a potential U.S. default for at least two years now. And she is determined to get inflation under control. But Janet Yellen has been here before — speaking about and dealing with America's economy. So her story, as told by Mr. Hilsenrath, is really the story of America's economy and its economic thoughts and policies. And in this story, her husband, Dr. George Akerlof, who is a recipient of a Nobel Prize in economics, plays a big role (as she does in his professional life). Yellen, Akerlof and their son, who also has a doctorate in economics, talk shop “all the time” at home. They live and breathe economics. In this episode, Mr. Hilsenrath tells us the many sides of Yellen's personality, and explains how they have in the past and may now influence her decisions — decisions with profound impacts on our economy. You'll hear about (1) Yellen's compulsive preparation (which, at least once, got in the way of swift decision-making), (2) her transition from the regimented and methodical approaches of the Fed to the hustle and bustle and politics of being a member of the U.S. President's cabinet, (3) her and her husband's moral purpose, (4) their desire, from early in their lives, to solve the unemployment issue, (5) their humilities versus the hubris of economists in general, (6) her legacy, and (7) her desire to do good, to do the right thing, in a town in which right and fairness aren't easily defined or attainable. You will also learn and laugh about many important figures in the U.S. economy, and their quirks. You will hear about a family who talks economics all the time — at the kitchen table and on vacation. You can learn more about Mr. Hilsenrath by clicking this link. And here is an Amazon link to his recent book, Yellen: The Trailblazing Economist Who Navigated an Era of Upheaval, which we discuss in this episode. Also, to about the history of the US dollar and its dominance, you can listen to my conversation with Dr. Barry Eichengreen of U.C. Berkeley here: HbN-S2E26. I hope you enjoy these episodes.

Jan invites the acclaimed Wall Street Journal writer Jon Hilsenrath — author of the new book, “Yellen: The Trailblazing Economist Who Navigated an Era of Upheaval” — to the show to discuss Yellen's role at the center of the largest American economic crises of the past 30 years. “When she became treasury secretary,” says Jon, “she had done something that no person in American history had ever done. She became the first human in American history to be the treasury secretary, the Fed chair, and the chair of the Council of Economic Advisers — and, no less, the first woman to hold those roles.”Jan and Jon dive into Yellen's remarkable leadership and humanized approach to economic policy. Yellen's success in traditionally slow-moving, male-dominated institutions has done more than break a glass ceiling. Her clarity of purpose, humility and gravitas have steered her through some of the most turbulent times in American economic history.The historical backdrop of Yellen's career sheds light on many of the present challenges in the automotive industry. Jan highlights lessons from this intimate look at one of the most powerful figures in American politics.From lessons in building trust to the importance of feeling comfortable in one's skin, Yellen's life story has universal appeal. Stay until the end to hear how Jan once danced with the treasury secretary on stage at a conference. What else would you expect?Themes discussed in this episode: Finding purpose through humanizing your workListening well and embracing cognitive diversityHow leaders can benefit from skepticsThe importance of admitting mistakesBuilding trust in a politically divided nationThe complexities of democratic market-driven capitalismStories of Janet Yellen's gravitas in difficult situationsFeatured Guest: Jon HilsenrathWhat he does: Jon Hilsenrath is a senior contributor to The Wall Street Journal, a Pulitzer Prize finalist and one of America's most influential financial writers.

In this episode, Hilsenrath discusses his decision to write a book about Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen and her husband, Nobel laureate economist George Akerlof, in the form of a love story. He highlights the couple's central role in economic debates over the years. He aims to humanize top figures in economics while also incorporating historical lessons and personal lessons about work, family, and more.

The US economy has undergone massive ups and downs throughout the last two decades, and through it all, for better or for worse, Janet Yellen was one of the leaders steering America through it.

In his new book, 'Yellen: The Trailblazing Economist Who Navigated an Era of Upheaval,' The Wall Street Journal Jon Hilsenrath examines economic history through the eyes of Yellen and her husband, George Akerlof. He discusses some of her most consequential and controversial decisions, as well as the fundamentals that motivated them. Hilsenrath also gave his thoughts on the current state of the economy and where he thinks it may go. Due to time limitations, we could not include all of the conversations in our original segment.

Den amerikanske nobelprismodtager i økonomi Joseph Stiglitz ser kapitalismen som fejlslagen, ulighed som den afgørende destabiliserende faktor i samfundet, og tiden som moden til en ny progressiv kapitalisme med store offentlige investeringer i uddannelse, infrastruktur og teknologi. I denne podcast kan du høre Stiglitz i samtale med politisk kommentator Noa Redington om Europa og USA i en tumultarisk tid, hvor en voksende ekstrem højrefløj, bagsiderne ved globaliseringen og den stigende inflation har ledt til polarisering i de vestlige demokratier. Podcasten blev optaget til International Forfatterscene på Det Kgl. Bibliotek i Den Sorte Diamant i september 2022. Joseph Eugene Stiglitz Joseph Eugene Stiglitz er amerikansk nobelprismodtager i økonomi, professor ved Columbia University og cheføkonom ved Roosevelt Institute. Stiglitz modtog i 2001 Nobelprisen i økonomi sammen med George Akerlof og Michael Spence for sin analyse af konsekvenserne af asymmetrisk information i en markedsøkonomi. I 2011 blev Stiglitz udpeget af Time Magazine som en af verdens 100 mest indflydelsesrige mennesker.

“Economics should be about caring for real people.” Janet Yellen First female Secretary of the Treasury First female Chair of the Federal Reserve Chair of the Council of Economic Advisors First person to hold all three roles The Artwork: Yellen's portrait in the Fearless Portraits project consists of an Ink and colored pencil drawing on a map of San Francisco. She's wearing a purple blazer with her trademarked popped collar. The Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco she presided over from 2004 – 2010 is on the right side of the map, just over her shoulder. The Story: Janet Yellen's philosophy on how economics should be about caring for real people had its roots in her childhood. Growing up in a working-class Brooklyn neighborhood, she watched a stream of factory workers and dock hands visit her father's medical practice, paying $2 cash to be seen, or not paying if they couldn't. “I came to understand the effect that unemployment could have on people in human terms,” she says. This philosophy was solidified in college during a macroeconomics lecture: “I remember sitting in class and learning about how there were policy decisions that could have been taken during the Great Depression to alleviate all that human suffering—that was a real ‘aha' moment for me. I realized that public policy can, and should, address these problems.” Fast forward 50 years and Yellen—in her role as president of the San Francisco Federal Reserve Bank—would be among the first to raise concerns about the impending subprime mortgage bubble. Later, as vice chair of the Fed and then chair of the Fed, she oversaw a controversial plan to buy trillions of dollars in assets to prevent the economy from further collapse. Called quantitative easing, the plan may well have been the difference between keeping a job or losing it for millions of workers in the US economy. Yellen's human-centric economics mindset was a marked shift in thinking for the Federal Reserve and later to the Department of the Treasury. As she put it, the job of central bankers as she sees it, “isn't just about fighting inflation or monitoring the financial system. It's about trying to help ordinary households get back on their feet and about creating a labor market where people can feel secure and work and get ahead.” In her long and distinguished career, Yellen served as one of President Clinton's top aides, chairing the Council of Economic Advisors. Then, she led the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco and became the first female Chair of the Federal Reserve system in 2014. Five days into Joe Biden's presidency, Yellen was confirmed by the Senate as the first female Secretary of the Treasury. She is the first person in history to hold all three of the US's top economic positions. Background on Yellen: Yellen's household is a true economics powerhouse. She's married to Nobel laureate and UC Berkeley professor George Akerlof and their son, Robert, is also an economics professor. Aside from collaborating on raising their son together, (Yellen notes that if all hours on parenting and housework were added up, Akerlof did “more than 50%”) the economics super couple also co-wrote a famous paper together. Drawing on their experience hiring a babysitter for their son, the paper illuminates why lower wages don't always lead to higher employment. “Firms are not always willing to cut wages, even if there are people lined up outside the gates to work. So, why don't they?” asks Yellen. Their conclusion was that some companies choose to pay higher wages to attract better talent and motivate their employees to do good work. As Yellen notes, “When you hire a nanny, the question you ask yourself is, ‘what's best for my precious child?' And do you really want someone who feels that your motive in life is to minimize the amount you spend on your child?” Music: This episode contains music by Geovane Bruno and Praz Khanal.

Becoming an economist in the 1970s- for a woman, was a lonely road. When Clair Brown joined the Department of Economics at UC Berkeley in 1974 alongside people like Nobel laureate George Akerlof, she was the only female faculty member. But thanks to Brown's prodding, the department hired more women and Berkeley has since become well known for its female economists. Brown has always seen the power of diversity in her work. In 2013 she helped create a new graduate program called Development Engineering that teams engineers with economists to develop technologies that benefit developing regions. Today, she's advocating for a new, more sustainable approach to economic thinking in her book, Buddhist Economics. Journalist, Rhoda Metcalfe spoke with Clair Brown for our special series on extraordinary Women in Economics. Transcript: https://bit.ly/388DzG3 Book: http://buddhisteconomics.net/
In this episode of The Agent of Wealth Podcast, the Bautis Financial team discusses the fourth book assignment in their monthly Book Club, Animal Spirits: How Human Psychology Drives the Economy, and Why It Matters for Global Capitalism by George Akerlof and Robert Shiller. In Animal Spirits, Nobel prize winner George Akerlof and Yale economics professor Robert Shiller assert that traditional economic theory places too much weight on quantifiable facts and not enough weight on emotion – “People have noneconomic motives. And they are not always rational in pursuit of their economic interests.”In this episode, we discuss:The five different aspects of Animal Spirits: confidence, the desire for fairness, corruption, money illusion and the importance of stories.Whether or not we believe the concept of Animal Spirits should be incorporated into macroeconomic theory.What our team liked most about the book.What our team learned and took away from the book.And more!This is the fourth episode in the Bautis Financial Book Club series.

In this episode of the Ruth Institute Podcast, we find Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse on the Capital Record Podcast published by National Review. She is interviewed by David Bahnsen. Dr. Morse tells her journey from an economist to a defender of the family, becoming a mother herself of two children. Dr. Morse describes what she learned early on as a mother: children need a relationship with their parents in order to build a conscience and be able to socialize properly with the outside world. And this has major effects on the economy. The people that keep contracts and promises and who are honest in the economy must come from somewhere – the family. A child without love cannot do even the most basic things in society. Is free enterprise and the family mutually exclusive? Are they really unrelated? Dr. Morse invites the listeners to consider that the family reproduces itself whereas the Sexual Revolution is sterile. She highlights that the Sexual Revolution is a war against nature. The fact that men and women are different is natural. The reality that children depend upon their own parents is an unavoidable truth. To sustain itself against nature, the Sexual Revolution requires force and therefore is totalitarian. The pioneers of the sexual revolution, persons like Wilhelm Reich and Alfred Kinsey, thought that all sexual taboos were harmful. Fast forward today, and now we see that almost all sexual taboos that put healthy distance between men, women, and scandalous actions have been removed. “A lot of the brokenness and families failing to perform, a lot of that has to be laid at the doorstep of Roe v. Wade. That is the accelerator…. [There is this] article that George Akerlof and Janet Yellen did… that was analyzing the fact that the advent of modern contraception and abortion actually is correlated with more out of wedlock pregnancy.” – Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse “Traditional Christian Sexual Ethics created equality because it said, ‘For every child: his or her own father and his or her own mother. For every man: one and only one wife. For every woman: one and only one husband. And for life. That created stability. That created equality.'” To hear the full, un-cut episode, see here: https://www.nationalreview.com/podcasts/capital-record/episode-51-the-anti-stimulative-impact-of-the-sexual-revolution/
** We're talking about abortion in this episode, and occasionally we mention sexual abuse and violence. Nothing graphic, we promise. But some listeners may find what follows distressing. Be safe. **We're weighing up the arguments of the Pro Choice and Pro Life movements. Perhaps we can convince you that the case against abortion - the pro-life case - isn't as dumb and mean as it's often portrayed to be, and nor does it depend on religious dogma.This episode is sponsored by Zondervan's new book The Global Church: The First Eight Centuries by Donald Fairbairn.LINKS Read Judith Jarvis Johnson's groundbreaking article about abortion, where she offered the violinist thought experiment as a way to illustrate bodily autonomy: A Defense of Abortion by Judith Jarvis Thomson, Philosophy and Public Affairs, Vol. 1, No. 1. (Autumn, 1971), pp 47-66. Get to know our guest, Professor Margaret Somerville.Read Somerville's book that first introduced her to John, The Ethical Canary: Science, Society, and the Human Spirit Say hi to our guest, Dr Emma Wood. Here's some more info on Professor Michael Tooley, Emma mentions as we speak with her. He wrote a very influential book called Abortion and Infanticide in the 1980s, where he argues that an entity can't possess a right to life unless it has the capacity to desire its continued existence. Here's the article called 'Reasons why women have induced abortions: a synthesis of findings from 14 countries', published in the journal, Contraception, in 2017. And here are the statistics on numbers of abortions worldwide, from the Guttmacher Institute Here's some more on Professor Peter Singer's argument in favour of abortion: "When a woman has an abortion, the fetus is alive, and it is undoubtedly human – in the sense that it is a member of the species homo sapiens. It isn't a dog or a chimpanzee ... But mere membership of our species doesn't settle the moral issue of whether it is wrong to end a life. As long as the abortion is carried out at less than 20 weeks of gestation – as almost all abortions are – the brain of the fetus has not developed to the point of making consciousness possible." He goes on: "Admittedly, birth is in some ways an arbitrary place to draw the line at which killing the developing human life ceases to be permissible, and instead becomes murder ... A prematurely born infant may be less developed than a late-term fetus. But the criminal law needs clear dividing lines and, in normal circumstances, birth is the best we have." Here's Don Marquis' article that we spend a lot of time on in the second half of this episode: "Why Abortion is Immoral", in the Journal of Philosophy vol.86, no.4 (April 1989), pages 183-202: "The claim that the primary wrong-making feature of a killing is the loss to the victim of the value of its future has obvious consequences for the ethics of abortion. The future of a standard fetus includes a set of experiences, projects, activities, and such which are identical with the futures of adult human beings and are identical with the futures of young children. Since the reason that is sufficient to explain why it is wrong to kill human beings after the time of birth is a reason that also applies to fetuses, it follows that abortion is prima facie seriously morally wrong." Here's a link to the full New York Times podcast 'The Argument' episode called 'Why the Anti-Abortion Side Will Lose, Even if it Wins' (if you don't have a NYT subscription, just look it up on your podcast app - it was published on April 14, 2021. Watch Paxton Smith's speech from her Texas high school graduation here. Read this article in The Economist called 'Texas's new proposal shows why abortion law is a mess in America', re: the so-called Texan "heartbeat bill". Here's more on the Mississippi case that will come before the Supreme Court and challenge Roe v Wade, from the New York Times. Producer Kaley found this article really interesting while researching this episode: The epic political battle over the legacy of the suffragettes, in The Atlantic which explores why both sides of the abortion debate see themselves as inheritors of the early women's movement. Read the paper by economists Janet L Yellen and George Akerlof called 'An analysis of out-of-wedlock childbearing in the United States', Quarterly Journal of Economics, May 1996, which carried this quote (among lots of other interesting insights): “By making the birth of the child the physical choice of the mother, the sexual revolution has made marriage and child support a social choice of the father.”

Nobel laureate George Akerlof and Duke University economist Rachel Kranton talk about their book, Identity Economics and the insights that the concept continues to provide for economic analysis.
While Yellen is surely smart in the book sense, there’s absolutely nothing remarkable about her economic knowledge. In truth, her ideology is very unoriginal, and is rooted in the hard-to-credit view that economic growth can be engineered via the forced redistribution of wealth from producers to consumers.
Le portrait d'une des figures de l'équipe de Joe Biden. Le président américain élu a confirmé cette semaine la nomination de Janet Yellen comme secrétaire au Trésor. Sa mission : livrer un soutien économique immédiat au pays lourdement frappé par la pandémie de Covid-19. Janet Yellen, première femme à la tête du Trésor, l'équivalent du ministère de l'Économie et des Finances, est une personnalité expérimentée. « Ce travail est au cœur de mon existence » Cheveux blancs, regard vif, un mètre cinquante et talons plats, Janet Yellen, 74 ans, adopte son look de grand-mère avec humour. Qualifiée de « colombe », car plus préoccupée par l'emploi que par l'inflation, c'est aussi une fine économiste. Tour à tour conseillère à la Maison Blanche, présidente de la banque fédérale de San Francisco ou encore cheffe de la Réserve fédérale des États-Unis (Fed), elle a fait de son travail dans ces institutions un point central de sa vie. Elle le confie à nos confrères de CBS en quittant la Réserve Fédérale, en 2018 : « Je suis un peu partagée, car j'aime réellement mon job. En-dehors du travail, j'adore passer du temps avec ma famille, mais le travail que j'ai effectué ici est au cœur de mon existence. Je m'y suis identifiée. » Née dans le quartier ouvrier de Brooklyn, fille d'un médecin et d'une institutrice, Janet Yellen est très tôt marquée par le souvenir de la Grande Dépression et du chômage de masse, ce qui la pousse à se soucier des plus démunis. Elle obtient un diplôme en économie, puis un doctorat en 1971 à l'université Yale. Professeure à Harvard à son tour, démocrate convaincue, elle travaille pour le gouvernement, et c'est au sein de la Fed qu'elle rencontre son futur mari, George Akerlof, prix Nobel d'économie en 2001. Selon ses propres mots à elle, c’est une approche macroéconomique qui les a réunies. User de la persuasion Mais au-delà de l'expérience, sa principale qualité est l’art du dialogue. Jason Furman, professeur à l'université Harvard, collaborateur de Janet Yellen au Conseil Économique, interrogé sur la chaîne Bloomberg, déclare : « Janet est quelqu'un qui parle clairement. Elle est directe et sincère. Sa façon de faire est plutôt la persuasion. Elle n'irait pas prendre un verre avec un sénateur. Ça marche avec les uns, pas avec les autres. Mais je ne suis pas sûr qu'en prenant une bière on aurait plus de chances de convaincre. » Cette femme directe et sincère, saura-t-elle convaincre ses adversaires pour mener à bien une politique de relance ? Difficile à dire, mais selon Gregory Daco, économiste en chef États-Unis chez Oxford Economics, un cabinet de prévisions, Janet Yellen a un avantage : « Elle approche tous les problèmes auxquels elle fait face avec une méthodologie très précise où elle examine les faits et parvient à des conclusions précises par rapport à ces faits. On a vu ses efforts très méthodiques au cours de sa présidence de la Réserve Fédérale. Et, ce qui est très important dans l'environnement actuel, c'est le fait que Janet Yellen ne soit pas idéologue. Dans un environnement politique assez partagé, son manque d'idéologie forte sera un atout qui lui permettra probablement de collaborer avec les deux côtés politiques, tant les Républicains que les Démocrates. » Restaurer le rêve américain L’espoir que suscite pour 2021 le vaccin contre le coronavirus est très encourageant. Mais on ne peut pas nier la gravité de la situation. Janet Yellen hérite d’une économie lourdement touchée par la crise sanitaire. Une économie qui devra se reconstruire. Face à cette crise multiple et profonde, l’agenda de la future secrétaire au Trésor est déjà bien rempli. A commencer par le volet fiscal du plan de relance de Joe Biden, sa priorité. D’après l’économiste Gregory Daco : « Janet Yellen va se concentrer sur une reprise du marché du travail qui profite à tous, à un maximum de ménages. Elle porte une attention toute particulière aux inégalités qui sont très présentes et très fortes aux États-Unis. Janet Yellen a insisté sur l'importance de restaurer le rêve américain, une société dans laquelle tout le monde peut bénéficier d'un marché du travail fort et d'une économie forte. Donc, on aura une Janet Yellen qui sera beaucoup plus attentive à ce que les gains du marché du travail soient diffusés de manière plus large au sein de la population américaine. » Janet Yellen sera en première ligne dès le début du mandat de Joe Biden. Mais avec un Sénat très probablement contrôlé par ses adversaires républicains, sa tâche ne sera pas des plus faciles.

Em nosso segundo episódio vamos conversar e fazer e provocações sobre o custo das consultorias e como podemos criar organizações mais eficientes para gerenciar projetos de tecnologia, além de agregar ainda mais valor aumentando o potencial de sua organização. Utilizamos como ponto de partida o conhecido artigo "The Market for Lemons" do economista George Akerlof . Limão é uma gíria utilizada nos Estado Unidos para definir um carro que você descobre ter defeitos apenas depois de comprá-lo. Bem, vamos agora tentar entender o que isso tem a ver com tecnologia da informação e com os seus negócios.
No one wants to consider sunk cost, whether financial or otherwise. Losing capital in a capitalist society is a sign that you’ve failed — and especially in America’s culture of the self-made man, failure is just something that we don’t tolerate. We’re not failing at breaking the glass ceiling, we’re succeeding at harnessing alternative income streams. We’re not failing at body positivity or fat acceptance or self-love, we’re just works in progress, trying to push until we don’t have anything left. We’re going to succeed -- even if it kills us.In this episode we're diving headfirst into a niche corner of economic theory: Identity economics. Using a theory put forth by Professors George Akerlof and Rachel Kranton, we're going to look deep into our own motivations for buying into "healthy lifestyles" and selling them back to others.

Dr. George Akerlof, a University Professor in the McCourt School of Public Policy here at Georgetown, and a Koshland Professor of Economics Emeritus at UC Berkeley. His research is based in economics, but it often draws from other disciplines, including psychology, anthropology, and sociology. George has been a distinguished contributor to the field of economics for over 50 years. His most notable contributions have come in the areas of asymmetrical information, identity economics, reproductive technology shock, corporate looting, and natural norms of macroeconomics. In 2001, he was a co-recipient of the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences. The Nobel Committee cited his seminal paper from 1970 on asymmetrical information titled “The Market for Lemons.” He taught, with only brief interruption, at the University of California at Berkeley from 1966 to 2010, then served as a Visiting Scholar at the International Monetary Fund until 2014 before coming to Georgetown. He has co-authored a handful of books, the most recent of which is titled “Phishing for Phools: The Economics of Manipulation and Deception.” Table of Contents 0:00 - Intro 1:20 - What's your story? 2:30 - How did you connect your childhood interests to economics? 4:30 - Were anomalies the kernel of your research? 9:15 - How did societal problems prompt your economic perspective? 8:00 - Did you have trouble publishing early work?

From blind faith in ever-rising housing prices to fearful mistrust of capital markets, powerful psychological forces seem to be endangering the global economy. Are so-called “animal spirits” — the term John Maynard Keynes used to describe the gloom that led to the Great Depression and the psychological shift that pulled us out of it — behind today’s financial crisis? George Akerlof, a Nobel laureate, and Yale University economics professor Robert Shiller visit Zócalo to discuss overconfidence in capitalism, modern snake-oil salesmen, and how to fix the economy to ease the influence of each.
