We explore how young people have made meaningful careers and lasting change working in the public interest with Sam Simon, editor of “Choosing the Public Interest: Essays From the First Public Interest Research Group” and Lisa Frank, Vice President and D.C. Director at The Public Interest Network and also Executive Director in the Washington Legislative Office at Environment America. Plus, the indomitable Chris Hedges stops by to report on his interviews with college students protesting the genocide in Gaza, which he chronicled in a Substack piece titled “The Nation's Conscience.”Sam Simon is an author, playwright, and attorney who co-founded the Public Interest Research Group with Ralph and the other Nader's Raiders in 1970. He compiled and edited the new book Choosing the Public Interest: Essays From the First Public Interest Research Group.This is something that every one of these themes have and that this movement has had—that the consumer, the user, the student, the pensioner have equal voice in our systems to help create the systems that are intended to benefit them, and not leave that power in the hands of corporate entities and profit-making enterprises. And that idea needs to continue to exist. And I'm glad that the Public Interest Network and PIRGS still thrive on many campuses.Sam SimonWhat I want to come out of this book is that average kids from average backgrounds ended up doing amazing things with their entire lives, because of the opportunity and the vision that they could do that.Sam SimonLisa Frank is Vice President and D.C. Director at The Public Interest Network. She is also Executive Director in the Washington Legislative Office at Environment America, where she directs strategy and staff for federal campaigns. Ms. Frank has won millions of dollars in investments in walking, biking and transit, and has helped develop strategic campaigns to protect America's oceans, forests and public lands from drilling, logging and road-building.The particular types of problems we're focused on at [PIRG] are ones that really have been created in a sense by our success as a country in growing. We're the wealthiest country the world has ever seen. We figured out how to grow more than enough food than we can eat, we produce more than enough clothing than we can wear, certainly more than enough plastic…And all of this abundance is leading to new types of problems…The problems that have either come about because of the progress we've made as a society and now we've got the ability to tackle them, or problems where—clean energy is an example—where there are problems that we newly have the ability to solve.Lisa FrankYou have Congress that passed these five laws that are being violated, with the result of huge death and destruction overseas— and not just in Gaza, but places like Iraq and Libya in the past. And they're talking about students trespassing at their own university, and nonviolent protests? The problem starts in Congress. They're the funders, the enablers, the surrenderers of their constitutional rights of oversight and war-making powers.Ralph NaderChris Hedges is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, who spent nearly two decades as a foreign correspondent in Central America, the Middle East, Africa and the Balkans. He is the host of The Chris Hedges Report, and he is a prolific author— his latest book is The Greatest Evil Is War.[Students] understand the nature of settler colonial regimes. The expansion or inclusion of students from wider backgrounds than were traditionally there at places like Princeton…has really added a depth and expanded the understanding within the university. So they see what's happening in Gaza, and they draw—rightly— connections to what we did to Native Americans, what the British did in India, what the British did in Kenya, what the French did in Algeria, and of course, they are correct.Chris Hedges[Students] have defied, quite courageously, the administrations of their universities, who are—kind of like the political class—bought and paid for by the Israel lobby, and in particular wealthy donors and the Democratic Party. And that is why these universities have responded to these nonviolent protests the way they have, with such overwhelming and draconian use of force.Chris HedgesIn Case You Haven't Heard with Francesco DeSantisNews 5/15/241. The New Republic reports the Federal Trade Commission has filed suit against Scott Sheffield, former CEO of oil and gas giant Pioneer Resources alleging that “voluminous evidence” suggests Sheffield “collaborated with fellow U.S. producers and the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries in order to keep crude oil prices ‘artificially' high.” As Matt Stoller explains in his newsletter, “after a bitter price war from 2014-2016, [American oil producers] got tired of competing on price with…the OPEC oil cartel, and at some point from 2017-2021, decided to join the cartel and cut supply to the market. This action had the [e]ffect of raising oil prices, costing oil consumers something on the order of $200 billion a year.” Stoller claims that this price-fixing scheme between the OPEC cartel and the American oil oligopoly caused 27% of all inflation-related price increases in 2021. Progressive lawmakers such as Senator Bernie Sanders who tried to raise the alarm about what he dubbed “greedflation” were dismissed at the time, but like so many times before, have been vindicated by the simple fact that American corporate greed always exceeds expectations.2. Tal Mitnick and Sofia Orr, the two Israeli teenagers conscientiously objecting to being drafted into Israel's campaign of terror in Gaza, have sent a letter to President Biden excoriating him for his unconditional support of the Netanyahu regime, per the Intercept. The two heroic peaceniks write “Your unconditional support for [Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu's policy of destruction, since the war began, has brought our society to the normalization of carnage and to the trivialization of human lives…It is American diplomatic and material support that prolonged this war for so long. You are responsible for this, alongside our leaders. But while they're interested in prolonging the war for political reasons, you have the power to make it stop.” These kids wrote this letter before reporting for their latest round of prison sentences, which have reached unprecedented lengths. As the article notes, “The refuseniks are not alone in their opposition, nor in the treatment they face. Throughout the war, Israelis have taken to the streets of Tel Aviv and Jerusalem to protest the war and Netanyahu's government. This past week, Israeli police arrested and beat protesters and hostage family members calling for an end to the war, just the latest example of Israelis being punished for voicing dissent or sympathy with the people of Gaza.”3. Al Jazeera reports yet another Biden Administration official has made public his resignation over the genocide in Gaza. Army Major Harrison Mann, who resigned in November, posted a letter Monday wherein he expressed “incredible shame and guilt” over the United States' “unqualified support” for Israel's war. Explaining why he waited so long to come forward with the reasoning behind his resignation, Mann wrote “I was afraid. Afraid of violating our professional norms. Afraid of disappointing officers I respect. Afraid you would feel betrayed. I'm sure some of you will feel that way reading this,” yet he noted “At some point – whatever the justification – you're either advancing a policy that enables the mass starvation of children, or you're not.”4. At long last, Egypt has announced its intention to join South Africa's genocide case against Israel at the International Court of Justice, Al Arabiya reports. In a statement, the Egyptian foreign ministry said this decision comes on the heels of the “worsening severity and scope of Israeli attacks against Palestinian civilians in the Gaza Strip,” likely referring to the terror bombing campaign in Rafah, which the United States had previously identified as a “Red Line” in terms of material support. Egypt has faced international embarrassment over its soft line towards its militaristic neighbor and alleged mistreatment of Palestinian refugees trying to flee into Egypt. The country has also “called on the UN Security Council and countries of influence to take actions to reach a ceasefire in Gaza and halt military operations in Rafah, according to the statement.”5. On Wednesday, May 8th, the State Department report on whether Israel has violated U.S. international law was due to Congress. Instead, it was delayed. As POLITICO reported “The State Department has been working for months on the report, which will issue a determination on whether Israel has violated international humanitarian law since the war in Gaza began. If so, the U.S. would be expected to stop sending Israel military assistance.” When the report was finally released, it stated “it is ‘reasonable to assess' that US weapons have been used by Israeli forces in Gaza in ways that are ‘inconsistent' with international humanitarian law,” but the report stopped short of officially saying Israel violated the law, per CNN. The report goes on to say that investigations into potential violations are ongoing but the US “‘does not have complete information to verify' whether the US weapons ‘were specifically used' in alleged violations of international humanitarian law.” This equivocation in the face of genocide – using American weapons — will leave an ineradicable black mark on the already spotty human rights record of the U.S. State Department.6. Students for Justice in Palestine at Columbia University reports “Columbia…is under federal investigation for anti-Palestinian discrimination and harassment.” According to the group, Palestine Legal is representing four Palestinian students and the group itself. Senior attorney for Palestine Legal Radikah Sainath said in a statement “The law is clear— if universities do not cease their racist crackdowns against Palestinians and their supporters, they will risk losing federal funding.”7. On May 8th, the D.C. Metro Police Department cleared the protest encampment at the George Washington University, using pepper spray and brute force. According to the Associated Press, the police arrested 33 protesters. The AP quoted Moataz Salim, a Palestinian student at GW with family in Gaza, who said the authorities merely “destroyed a beautiful community space that was all about love.” He went on to say “Less than 10 hours ago, I was pepper sprayed and assaulted by police…And why? Because we decided to pitch some tents, hold community activities and learn from each other. We built something incredible. We built something game-changing.” The police broke up the encampment in the wee hours of the morning, just before D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser was slated to appear before hostile Republican lawmakers in Congress, leading many to believe she acted when and how she did out of sheer cowardice and political expediency. After the encampment was cleared, the hearing was canceled. Undeterred, these courageous students have continued to protest their institution's support of Israel's criminal war and per the American University Eagle, have now set up a second encampment. We urge Mayor Bowser not to bow to pressure from bloodthirsty Congressional Republicans a second time.8. The Seattle Times reports “The FAA has opened an investigation into Boeing's 787 Dreamliner after the company disclosed that employees in South Carolina falsified inspection records.” As the paper notes, “This is the latest in a long litany of lapses at Boeing that have come to light under the intense scrutiny of the company's quality oversight since a passenger cabin panel blew out on an Alaska Airlines flight in January.” That is to say nothing of the safety lapses leading to the Lion Air and Ethiopia Airlines crashes in 2019, that resulted in the deaths of all aboard both flights. Incredibly, “This new 787 quality concern is unrelated to the 787 fuselage gaps described as unsafe in an April congressional hearing by Boeing whistleblower Sam Salehpour.” As these critical safety failures and lies continue to come to light, the only question remaining is when is enough enough?9. Bloomberg labor reporter Josh Eidelson reports “The US government [has] raised concerns with Germany about alleged union-busting in Alabama by Mercedes, an unusual move that escalates scrutiny on its handling of the high-stakes union vote.” Mercedes is facing a momentous union election at its Alabama plant, led by the United Autoworkers, fresh off of unionizing the first ever foreign-owned auto plant in the country. Eidelson goes on to say that members of the European Commission have raised the matter with Mercedes as well, raising the heat on the company as the election kicks off. Among other union busting tactics, Labor Notes reports Mercedes has tried enlisting a pastor to tell workers via text “Here in Alabama, community is important, and family is everything. We believe it's important to keep work separate. But there's no denying, a union would have an impact beyond the walls of our plant.”10. Finally, the Chicago Sun-Times is out with a story on the success of Illinois' experiment with ending cash bail for pre-trial detention. As the article puts it, “Despite all the anguish over the Pretrial Fairness Act, [Cook County Judge Charles] Beach says he has been struck by how proceedings have significantly changed for the better in his courtroom. ‘I think we've come a very long way in the right direction…Things are working well.'” This piece describes how “Under the old system of cash bail, Beach — a supervising judge in the pretrial division — was often tasked with setting a dollar figure a person would have to post before being released, a decision that could force a family to skip the rent to post a bond. It was a process that could seem arbitrary, depending on the judge, the time of day and where in the state the hearing was held.” Beach himself goes on to say “There's a sense in the courtroom that taking money out of the equation has leveled the playing field.” The success of this reform should be taken very seriously by other states, particularly New York where Democrats have sought to roll back the state's attempts at ending cash bail following pressure from conservatives. Turns out, it works.This has been Francesco DeSantis. Get full access to Ralph Nader Radio Hour at www.ralphnaderradiohour.com/subscribe

Hàng không: Máy bay Boeing có còn an toàn?

TẠP CHÍ KINH TẾ

Một loạt các sự cố gần đây trên các chuyến bay làm hoen ố hình ảnh của tập đoàn Mỹ Boeing và làm dấy lên nghi vấn về mức độ an toàn cho hành khách. Nhiều hãng hàng không dân sự phải cắt giảm các chuyến bay, bị mất khách. Boeing đang cần huy động thêm 10 tỷ đô la trước viễn cảnh sắp phải thanh toán 12 tỷ nợ đáo hạn.  Hôm 26/04/2024, chuyến bay của hãng hàng không Mỹ Delta Airlines nối New York và Los Angeles đã phải quay lại điểm khởi hành, khi phát hiện máy bay mất cầu trượt thoát hiểm. Chiếc Boeing 767 với 176 hành khách và phi hành đoàn đã hạ cánh an toàn. Đó chỉ là sự cố gần đây nhất trong một loạt cố khác  trong tháng 3/2024 : khi thì do hỏng kim đồng hồ đo sức gió, lúc thì do hỏng cánh quạt, hay do một mẩu cách bị rơi... Tệ hơn nữa là vụ 5 hành khách bị thương trong một chuyến bay từ Sydney đến Auckland do máy bay mất độ cao. Nhưng hình ảnh khủng khiếp nhất là vụ văng cánh cửa máy bay trên chiếc Boeing 737Max9 của hãng hàng không Alaska Airlines chở theo 171 hành khách từ Portland (bang Oregon) đến Ontario (bang California) hôm 05/01/2024.Xa hơn nữa, hãng Boeing đã chịu nhiều tai tiếng sau hai tai nạn hàng không năm 2018 và 2019 của hãng Lion Air và Ethiopian Air, làm gần 350 người thiệt mạng. Cả hai cùng sử dụng máy bay dòng 737Max của Boeing.Khi nhà sản xuất máy bay trao quyền cho giới tài chínhCó nhiều tiếng nói cho rằng hai vụ rớt máy bay nói trên là « điểm khởi đầu » đẩy Boeing vào một cuộc khủng hoảng vô tiền khoáng hậu. Riêng Bruno Trévidic, phụ trách các trang về công nghiệp hàng không của báo Les Echos, cho rằng khủng hoảng này có nguồn gốc sâu xa hơn : « Theo nhiều nhà quan sát tại Mỹ, khủng hoảng của Boeing khởi đầu từ khoảng năm 1997 khi Boeing mua lại tập đoàn sản xuất máy bay McDonnel Douglas. Đó cũng là thời điểm mà tương quan lực lượng trong buồng lái điều hành tập đoàn Boeing nghiêng hẳn về  phía giới tài chính. Họ chiếm đa số trong hội đồng quản trị và từng bước thu hẹp tiếng nói của giới kỹ sư. Đa số cho rằng khủng hoảng của tập đoàn sản xuất máy bay Mỹ Boeing đã kéo dài từ lâu ».Là đối thủ của Boeing, năm 1997, McDonnel Douglas (chuyên sản xuất từ tên lửa đến máy bay thương mại, quân sự … và hiện diện luôn cả trong ngành hàng không không gian), đã bị mua lại và « cặp đôi » này trở thành « tập đoàn sản xuất máy bay lớn nhất thế giới ». Chưa đầy một chục năm sau, Harry Stonecipher chủ tịch tổng giám đốc Boeing và McDonnel Douglas đã rất tự hào là tập đoàn do ông điều hành được « quản lý như bất kỳ một doanh nghiệp nào khác, chứ không phải là một hãng chỉ biết thực hiện các dự án công nghiệp ».Làm sao nên nỗi ? Harry Stonecipher có thể là đã quên mất rằng ngành hàng không và chế tạo máy bay là một ngoại lệ. Thí dụ như để sản xuất được một chiếc Boeing 737 Max, cần có tới « gần một nửa triệu phụ tùng, do 600 nhà cung cấp khác nhau bán cho Boeing. Bản thân mỗi đối tác trong số đó đều có cả một mạng lưới gia công ở phía sau ». Không dễ mà kiểm soát từng khâu một về chất lượng với nhiều đối tác như vậy.Đọc thêm : Boeing 737 MAX : Dòng máy bay « xui xẻo »Nét đặc thù của các tập đoàn công nghiệp chế tạo máy bay là « chất lượng và các chuẩn mực an toàn phải là ưu tiên tuyệt đối ». Bruno Trévidic, báo Les Echos, giải thích cụ thể hơn : « Ở đây có hai vấn đề. Một là trong những năm gần đây, Boeing đã trao lại cho các tập đoàn gia công một phần lớn các công đoạn sản xuất, nghĩa là trao hẳn cho những công ty khác những gì từng làm nên tên tuổi, uy tín của mình. Điều này từng xảy ra và đã bị chỉ trích khi dòng máy bay 787 gặp một số vấn đề. Khi đó người ta biết rằng 70 % các công đoạn sản xuất Boeing 787 đã được giao cho hãng Spirit Aerosystems. Sau đó, các cuộc điều tra cho thấy là hãng này đã có nhiều thiếu sót và cuối cùng, Boeing đã quyết định mua lại Spirit Aerosystems, để dễ quản lý hãng gia công cho mình. Trên thực tế, Boeing giao lại cho các hãng gia công một số công đoạn sản xuất cũng chỉ vì muốn giảm thiểu các chi phí trong cuộc chạy đua đi tìm lợi nhuận. Vấn đề thứ hai là Boeing vừa trải qua một thời gian dài bị tác động của khủng hoảng y tế Covid  Trong suốt giai đoạn 2020-2022, dây chuyền sản xuất bị gián đoạn, ngành hàng không dân dụng bị khủng hoảng, Boeing phải cắt giảm nhân sự, tức là để thất thoát chất xám, để mất khá nhiều nhân viên có kinh nghiệm. Khi ngành du lịch và giao thông hàng không hồi phục, các hãng hàng không cần mua thêm máy bay để đáp ứng nhu cầu của thị trường, thì các hãng chế tạo máy bay sản xuất không kịp. Boeing đã phải tuyển dụng trở lại nhân viên và đó là những người trẻ mới vào nghề. Số này chưa được đào tạo xong và cũng không ý thức được rằng những chuẩn mực an toàn, những chỉ số đo lường về chất lượng quan trọng đến mức độ nào. Họ cũng không được đào tạo để hiểu rằng, trong ngành công nghiệp chế tạo máy bay, công việc đòi hỏi phải thật hoàn hảo ». Sau các sự cố từ đầu năm đến nay, cổ phiếu của Boeing mất giá 25 % trong bốn tháng đầu năm. Tập đoàn này còn bị Cục Hàng Không Liên Bang Mỹ FAA và Ủy Ban An Toàn Giao Thông Quốc Gia Hoa Kỳ NTSB điều tra và cả hai đã đưa ra những kết luận không mấy thuận lợi cho nhà sản xuất máy bay của Mỹ này. Bruno Trévidic báo Les Echos cho biết :« Điều tra về mặt kỹ thuật do cơ quan an toàn giao thông Hoa Kỳ NTSB tiến hành kết luận : đã có những sai sót trong khâu lắp ráp cửa máy bay và lỗi đó thuộc về trách nhiệm của Boeing. Sự cố đã xảy ra trong các nhà máy của Boeing ở Renton, nơi cho ra đời gam máy bay 737. Nói cách khác đây là lỗi của Boeing. Cục Hàng Không Liên Bang Mỹ, trong đợt thanh tra gần đây nhất đã tập trung kiểm tra chất lượng sản phẩm của tập đoàn Boeing. FAA chỉ ra rằng Boeing « có vấn đề » ở khâu này, tức là đã lơ là trong việc kiểm tra chất lượng. Boeing cũng thiếu sức thuyết phục trong việc đào tạo nhân sự ».Ngành hàng không dân sự bị vạ lây Trước những sự cố liên tiếp và với hệ quả ít nhiều nghiêm trọng nói trên, các hãng hàng không của Mỹ và châu Âu bắt đầu hết kiên nhẫn với Boeing. Hãng hàng không giá rẻ Ryanair dường như bị ảnh hưởng nhiều hơn cả, do hãng này chủ yếu sử dụng máy bay Boeing. Nhẽ ra tháng 3 vừa rồi Ryanair nhận được thêm 57 máy bay Boeing để chuẩn bị cho mùa hè sắp tới, nhưng rồi trong kịch bản tối ưu, tập đoàn Mỹ chỉ có thể giao 4 chiếc cho Ryanair. Hệ quả kèm theo là hãng hàng không giá rẻ của Ireland này phải « giảm số chuyến bay trên 10 lộ trình vào mùa cao điểm tháng 7-8 và 9 ».Tập đoàn United Airlines của Mỹ thất thu khoảng 200 triệu đô la chỉ vì các máy bay dòng Boeing 737 Max 9 bị giữ lại trên mặt đất trong ba tuần. Delta Airlines cũng không hy vọng từ nay đến năm 2025 có thêm được 100 chiếc máy bay mới để phục vụ hành khách. Về phần mình, tập đoàn Southwest báo trước là « không tuyển dụng thêm phi công và tiếp viên hàng không » cũng vì Boeing.Với người tiêu dùng, chắc chắn là trong những tháng hè sẽ khó tìm vé máy bay hơn một chút và hành khách phải mua vé đắt hơn.  Boeing vẫn là một ngọn hải đăng Song còn quá sớm để cho rằng Boeing đang lao xuống vực thẳm. Hiện tập đoàn này có một đội ngũ hơn 60.000 nhân viên, với khoảng 10.000 « con chim sắt » tung bay khắp thế giới. Boeing đã có sẵn đơn đặt hàng với 5.700 máy bay để giao cho các hãng hàng không dân dụng. Trị giá chứng khoán của Boeing là 104 tỷ đô la, tương đương với GDP của Cam Bốt và Miến Điện cộng lại.Hơn thế nữa, Boeing còn là một ông khổng lồ trong lĩnh vực hàng không quân sự và không gian, với chính phủ Mỹ là khách hàng quan trọng nhất. Hôm 26/04/2024, Boeing vừa mua lại cơ sở của GKN Aerospece tại Saint Louis, bang Missouri, để « tiếp tục cung cấp những phụ tùng thiết yếu và nhạy cảm cho chính phủ Mỹ và các đồng minh của Hoa Kỳ ». Đây là nơi cung cấp phụ tùng và bảo đảm một phần các chương trình chế tạo chiến đấu cơ F/A18 và F-15. Cũng Boeing hôm 29/04/2024 thông báo nhận thêm đơn đặt hàng của Bộ Quốc Phòng cung cấp thêm 7 chiếc trực thăng MH-139A cho Không Quân Hoa Kỳ. Trị giá hợp đồng là 178 triệu đô. MH-139A là loại trực thăng được quân đội sử dụng trong các công tác tuần tra, cứu hộ và tận tải. Chi nhánh Boeing Defence Space &Security là một tên tuổi lớn trong ngành với rất nhiều sản phẩm từ oanh tạc cơ, máy bay vận tải, máy bay tiếp liệu, tên lửa, vệ tinh... …

This Sunday will mark the fifth anniversary of the death of Micheál ‘Mick' Ryan. The Lahinch native was killed when the Boeing 737 Max Aircraft he was travelling on from Addis Ababa to Nairobi on the 10th of March, 2019 crashed minutes after take-off, killing all 157 people on board. ‘Mick's' widow, Naoise Ryan has continued to fight for justice for her late husband. That fight for justice has been frustrated by the 2021 deferred-prosecution agreement the US Government made with Boeing over that crash and the Lion Air plane which crashed shortly after takeoff in Indonesia on October 29th, 2018, resulting in the death of all 189 passengers and crew. However, the incident involving the Boeing 737 Max 9 Alaska Airlines jet in early January, in which a door plug blew out mid-air, has potentially changed matters. To discuss this further, Alan Morrissey spoke with Naoise Ryan.

Am Morgen des 29. Oktober 2018 hebt Lion Air Flug 610 auf dem Flughafen von Jakarta ab, das Ziel des Fluges ist die indonesische Insel Bangka. Doch für die 189 Menschen an Bord wird es eine Reise in den Tod. Schon kurz nach dem Start sind die Piloten im Cockpit mit heftigen Problemen konfrontiert. Und das, obwohl die Maschine auf diesem Flug eine fabrikneue Boeing 737 MAX ist - erst zwei Monate vorher wurde sie ausgeliefert. Fieberhaft versuchen die Piloten das Flugzeug unter ihre Kontrolle zu bringen, doch nach gut 13 Minuten Flugzeit verliert die Crew ihren Kampf: Lion Air Flug 610 stürzt vor Jakarta ins Meer - niemand an Bord überlebt den Absturz.

These days when you think of Boeing, the words that come to mind might be: door plug, 737-max, grounded. But before this month's safety debacle and the Ethiopian and Lion Air crashes five years ago, Boeing was synonymous with industry and innovation, and the company enjoyed a special relationship with the U.S. government and U.S. presidents.Former President Barack Obama joked he was Boeing's top salesman, and former President Donald Trump praised the company at a visit during his presidency.Now that special relationship between Boeing and the U.S. government is under renewed scrutiny.NPR's Mary Louise Kelly talks to transportation correspondent Joel Rose about that relationship and what this latest incident could mean for the company and its oversight.Email us at considerthis@npr.org

El pasado 5 de enero un Boeing 737 MAX 9 de Alaska Airlines que realizaba un vuelo entre Portland, en Oregón, y Los Ángeles tuvo que regresar precipitadamente al aeropuerto de partida tras perder una de sus puertas por un error de fabricación. El aparato, entregado a finales de octubre, sufrió una descompresión descontrolada y por fortuna no hubo que lamentar víctimas mortales gracias a que las butacas situadas junto a esa puerta estaban vacías. Este de Alaska Airlines era el segundo accidente aéreo en una semana. Tres días antes un vuelo de Japan Airlines que aterrizaba en Tokio proveniente de Sapporo chocó en la pista contra un pequeño turbohélice de la guardia costera ocasionando un aparatoso incendio y la muerte de cinco personas, todas tripulantes del avión de la guardia costera. Dos accidentes en un lapso tan corto de tiempo han puesto a la industria aérea y a las aerolíneas en modo de máxima alerta ya que los accidentes preludian quiebras y eso afecta a todo el sector. Ayer el consejero delegado de Boeing, David Calhoun, compareció ante la prensa y reconoció que la voladura de la puerta del avión de Alaska Airlines se debía a un error de fabricación. Con ello Calhoun quería detener la sangría en Bolsa. Las acciones de Boeing han bajado un 10% en sólo unos días y sobre la compañía aletea la crisis del 737 MAX 8, que le costó hace sólo cinco años casi 20.000 millones de dólares y un descrédito enorme. De aquella crisis Boeing no ha terminado de recuperarse. El MAX 8 estuvo en tierra durante año y medio tras dos accidentes que se produjeron en 2018 y 2019, uno en Indonesia y otro en Etiopía que costaron la vida a 346 personas. Estos accidentes se debieron al sistema de control de vuelo que hacía cálculos erróneos forzando caídas en picado de la aeronave. Ese sistema tuvo que ser rediseñado desde cero. Esta vez no se ha llegado tan lejos, pero llueve sobre mojado. Por de pronto las agencias de seguridad aérea han dejado en tierra a 170 unidades del modelo MAX 9 ya que tanto Alaska Airlines como United Airlines se han encontrado con piezas sueltas en su flota de MAX 9 cuando revisaban los aparatos en tierra. Al parecer, según los informes preliminares, la razón por la que la puerta salió volando se debió a que faltaban cuatro pernos diseñados para evitar que el tapón de la puerta se salga de los topes. De confirmarse esto Boeing tiene por delante un aprieto de primera categoría que se suma a una serie de problemas de calidad que han surgido en varios modelos de aviones comerciales y militares de Boeing en los últimos años. Boeing ha tratado de mejorar la forma en que aborda la seguridad, la ingeniería y la producción después de los accidentes anteriores del MAX, pero a la vista está que aún les queda mucho trabajo por delante. Esta vez, eso sí, han empezado bien reconociendo el error y poniéndose manos a la obra, cosa que no sucedió en 2018 cuando se estrelló el avión de Lion Air matando a 189 personas. Es un buen comienzo que traerá algo de certidumbre a un sector que está sometido a muchísima presión ya que el tráfico aéreo se ha recuperado por completo de la pandemia y es hoy más intenso que nunca.

Drama saling pecat dan saling gusur dalam tajuk “Perang Paman Melawan Keponakan” jadi warna utama tensi politik perebutan kepemimpinan di Partai Kebangkitan Bangsa. Ujung akhirnya, mari sambut kemenangan The One and Only: Cak Imin. Ini adalah awal perjalanan karier politik paling menarik dari seorang politisi yang dikenal murah senyum dan murah tawa. Eits, tapi di balik pembawaannya yang demikian, nyatanya Cak Imin adalah seorang politisi yang brilian. Ini mungkin yang menyebabkan “bumi gonjang-ganjing” di Koalisi Perubahan yang mengusung Anies Baswedan dalam beberapa minggu terakhir. Partai Demokrat yang ingin mengusung AHY sebagai cawapres Anies, harus pupus harapannya setelah Cak Imin dipinang Surya Paloh untuk posisi itu. Tapi, ada proses panjang untuk sampai di titik ini, termasuk yang melibatkan strategi cukup mind blowing – hal yang membuat Cak Imin patut diwaspadai karena sangat handal. Penasaran seperti apa?

Boeing and its former CEO Dennis Muilenburg agreed to pay hefty fines to settle charges from the Securities and Exchange Commission that they misled the public about the safety of the 737 Max following two fatal crashes in 2018 and 2019. The SEC alleges that, following an October 2018 crash of a Lion Air 737 Max jet that killed 189 people, Boeing and Muilenburg knew that part of the plane's flight control system posed an ongoing safety concern yet told the public that the 737 Max was safe to fly. After a March 10, 2019 fatal 737 Max crash, the SEC alleges that Boeing and Muilenburg knowingly misled the public about “slips” and “gaps” in the certification process of that flight control system. “In times of crisis and tragedy, it is especially important that public companies and executives provide full, fair, and truthful disclosures to the markets,” said SEC Chair Gary Gensler in a statement. “The Boeing Company and its former CEO, Dennis Muilenburg, failed in this most basic obligation. They misled investors by providing assurances about the safety of the 737 MAX, despite knowing about serious safety concerns.” In a statement, Boeing said that the settlement “fully resolves the SEC's previously disclosed inquiry into matters relating to the 737 MAX accidents.” “Today's settlement is part of the company's broader effort to responsibly resolve outstanding legal matters related to the 737 MAX accidents in a manner that serves the best interests of our shareholders, employees, and other stakeholders,” Boeing said. The company and Muilenburg agreed to settle charges of violating the antifraud provisions of US securities laws, but they did not admit or deny the SEC's allegations. Boeing agreed to pay a $200 million settlement and Muilenburg agreed to pay $1 million. “Boeing and Muilenburg put profits over people by misleading investors about the safety of the 737 Max all in an effort to rehabilitate Boeing's image following two tragic accidents that resulted in the loss of 346 lives and incalculable grief to so many families,” said Gurbir Grewal, director of the SEC's Enforcement Division in a statement. Muilenburg lost the top job at Boeing in December 2019. But he left with stock options and other assets worth about $80 million at that time — though Boeing shares have lost more than half their value since then. It is unknown what Muilenburg did with his Boeing shares and options after his departure. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/world-voices/support

Today's guest is world renowned attorney Jay Edelson, Esq., once referred to by The New York Times as “the class action lawyer who may be tech's least friended man.” Among Jay's many cases, he has gained international attention for suing tech companies that have violated individual privacy, and most recently, for his firm's pro bono work on behalf of the families of  Lion Air crash victims. But Jay offers something unique and non-traditional as the founder of the successful Chicago law firm Edelson PC, through a creative division of his company that brings attention to legal matters in music and acting videos. Hear how this widely respected and successful attorney makes his field more fun through innovative marketing and how the creative arm of his law firm, Edelson Creative, breaks down ideas into more digestible concepts for law students. Jay, who hosts his own podcast, Non-Compliant, dispels the notion of lawyers as stiff corporate honchos in suits and discusses how bringing their creativity to the marketing process makes for a delightful work culture. He may be a formidable opponent in the courtroom, but Jay explains why he is scarier on the volleyball court, why he's passionate about bringing levity to law and the impact it has on a firm in 2022.

“If it ain't Boeing, I ain't going” was a phrase uttered by generations of pilots in reference to the storied Seattle-based company that was virtually synonymous with American engineering know-how. But, in 2018, a practically brand-new Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft crashed soon after takeoff in Indonesia, followed five months later by a second 737 MAX crash in Ethiopia. All told, between the Lion Air and Ethiopian Airlines flights, 346 people were killed. And Boeing's reputation lay in tatters. In her searing new Netflix documentary “Downfall: The Case Against Boeing”, Academy Award®-nominated and Emmy® Award-winning filmmaker Rory Kennedy (“Last Days in Vietnam”, “Ghosts of Abu Ghraib”) sets out to examine not only how and why these planes went down, but to explain the crash of Boeing itself. Rory joins Mike and Ken on “Top Docs” to talk about her collaboration with former Wall Street Journal reporter Andy Pasztor who doggedly investigated Boeing. Why was he a perfect guide for telling this story? In what ways did the family members of those who died in the crashes prove to be among the most articulate and knowledgeable voices about the crashes? What was the one condition that Garima Sethi, the widow of the Lion Air pilot, put on doing an interview with Rory, and how did Rory convince her that this was, indeed, the one thing that she had to talk about? How did Rep. Peter DeFazio help break open the “case against Boeing”? After all this, would Rory herself set foot on a 737 MAX today? You'll want to stay tuned to the end of the podcast to find out. The answer may change how you feel about the next flight you take. “Downfall: The Case Against Boeing” is currently streaming on Netflix.   Hidden Gem:  Moon Age Daydream   Follow: @roryekennedy @topdocspod

We also discuss the MCAS related crashes of Boeing 737-MAX aircraft operated by Lion Air and Ethiopian Airlines, and how the company, particularly Dennis Muilenburg the Boeing CEO at the time, repeatedly misled the public about the nature of the crashes and the cause of them. It is essential to point out that until the investigation into this tragic plane crash of China Eastern Flight 5735 is completed, we won't have any concrete definitive answers as to what caused it.

Federal Judge Durkin is not having any of the Tom Girardi BS. In December 2020 Edelson PC filed their lawsuit against Tom Girardi, Girardi Keese, Erika Girardi, and her companies, former Girardi Keese lawyers Keith Griffin and David Lira. That is the lawsuit that alleges a 20 million dollar loan from Girardi Keese to Erika Girardi, that the divorce was a shame and that the victims are widows and orphans. That same day Edelson PC also filed their Motion for Rule to Show Cause asking the court to enter an order; 1) requiring Girardi Keese to show cause why7 it should not be held in contempt for violating the Court's orders relating to the settlement of [the six lion air client cases], and 2) granting any such further relief as it deems reasonable and just. The court seems focused on further relief after already holding Tom Girardi and Girardi Keese in contempt. At the end of three days of evidentiary hearings, the court asked the lawyers to further brief on “[d]o I have the power to order you to pay the clients not because you violated a court order but because in failing to come to me you caused the plaintiffs to lose that money”. It seems that at least as to the Lion Air clients there are court proceedings moving forward strongly focused on how to make the clients, whose settlements weren't paid too, whole. Remember, this is the Judge who forwarded this incident to Federal Prosecutors, and we know they have at least opened an investigation because Federal Prosecutors filed a motion asking the court for access to unsealed documents. What do you think will happen next?   Key Take-Aways Federal Judge Durkin is focused on if he can sanction former Girardi Keese lawyers Keith Griffin and David Lira and possibly Edelson PC as a firm or its lawyers for not bringing issues with Tom Girardi not paying clients of the Lion Air case to the court.   Tom Girardi Exclusive Voice Mails Tom is heard over two voicemails left for attorney Jay Edelson after the filing of the Motion for Rule to Show Cause saying: “I'm a good guy, get along great with all the Judges, I can do some real good shit but I want to make sure that you know we'd be joined at the hip” and “I want to be in charge of all your shit and at the end of about nine months I want you to say ‘God Tom, you made me another Million'”.  During Testimony during Day 3 of the contempt hearing Jay Edelson testified that Tom Girardi had called him repeatedly after the Motion for Rule to Show Cause was filed and that Tom indicated he could make him a ton of money because of his connections with Judges in California, and that the whole thing was ‘beyond unseemly'.   What Happens Next? The lawyers for former Girardi Keese lawyers Keith Griffin and David Lira and the lawyers for Edelson PC will submit a briefing to the court about if the court can impose sanctions not for violating the court order, which Tom Girardi, has already been held in contempt for…but for not bringing it to the courts' attention sooner.  They will also be submitting a chart breaking down the Girardi Keese client IOLTA account to see what happened with the settlement money after Boeing funded the settlements in March 2020. Seeing what happened with that money will be very interesting. The court will rule on the Sanctions and contempt. Sanctions may be possible, but contempt here is unlikely.  The lawsuit filed by Edelson PC against the lawyers and Erika Girardi is still moving forward in Illinois and will continue forward into discovery.

On March 10, 2019, Ethiopian Airlines flight 302 crashed en route to Nairobi, Kenya, killing all 157 passengers on board, including eight American citizens.  The crash involved a Boeing 737 MAX jet, the same jet involved in a crash of Lion Air flight 610 from Indonesia in October 2018.  Although investigators have not yet completed their investigation into the cause of the crash, the flight pattern of the jet suggests a problem with an automated anti-stall device on the plane (MCAS) which would push the nose of the jet down in certain circumstances in order to stabilize the aircraft.  With two crashes of the same jet in less than six months, the public is worried that the 737 MAX jet is not safe for the skies and wondering why the FAA ever approved of the 737 MAX jet in the first place.  Shares of Boeing stock have dropped more than 10% with billions of dollars in revenue from future orders of the 737 MAX jet now in jeopardy.In this episode of The Blame Game, we look at the potential civil liability of Boeing, Ethiopian Airlines and others for this tragic crash and try to answer one recurring question: who's to blame?

Henry Hazlitt's Long-Term Economic Thinking: Foundation of Entrepreneurial Excellence

AERC 2019

Play Episode Listen Later Mar 25, 2019


The Henry Hazlitt Memorial Lecture, sponsored by Hunter Lewis. Recorded at the Mises Institute on March 22, 2019. Includes an introduction by Joseph T. Salerno. The Austrian Economics Research Conference is the international, interdisciplinary meeting of the Austrian School, bringing together leading scholars doing research in this vibrant and influential intellectual tradition. The conference is hosted by the Mises Institute at its campus in Auburn, Alabama, and is directed by Joseph Salerno, professor of economics at Pace University and academic vice president of the Mises Institute. Lecture Text: In 1946, a book named Economics in One Lesson was written by a man who did not think it would have a great impact beyond the economic fallacies of his day. That amazing man was Henry Hazlitt. Now over one million copies have been sold and it remains in print. It is a personal honor to lecture about Hazlitt: He is one of my favorite writers on economics, political economy, and ethics. Economics in One Lesson, which was based in part on Bastiat's essay, “What Is Seen and What Is Not Seen,” debunks the most prominent economic fallacies of the past and the present, summing up economics as long-term versus ephemeral thinking. He wrote more than twenty books and was the principal editorial writer on finance and economics for The New York Times for twelve years and a columnist for Newsweek for twenty years. More importantly, his writing was thoughtful, incisive, and influential, and he played a significant role in supporting, introducing, and explaining the ideas of Mises and also Hayek. He is a stellar example of the impact one person can have on our society. My mentor, Dr. Bill Peterson (a student and colleague of Mises) and his wife Mary were good friends of Hazlitt, so although I never met Henry, I did receive first-hand knowledge of his life and work from the Petersons. I am thankful to Laura Bennett Peterson, Bill and Mary Peterson's daughter, for assisting me with this lecture. Laura grew up knowing Hazlitt and she has been exceptionally helpful with her knowledge and insights about him. Dr. Peterson was very complimentary of Hazlitt's writing and personal courage, especially when he opposed the Bretton Woods agreement. Hazlitt knew Bretton Woods would cause inflation. The New York Times had no interest in criticizing this agreement, and that sent Hazlitt looking for a new job. Hulsmann indicates in Mises: The Last Knight of Liberalism that Hazlitt may have been one of Mises' first close American friends. In 1940, Hazlitt received a call from “Mises speaking,” and he described the encounter as if “John Stuart Mill were speaking.” This was the beginning of a long-term friendship between Hazlitt and Mises. By explaining economic theory, Hazlitt enabled many entrepreneurs to think clearly and correctly. Most of the time the world promotes compliance with existing ideas and punishes critical thinking and new ideas. This was Germany's mentality in the early 20th century, Mises was treated miserably because of what he thought; this is common today. Profound thinkers are rarely appreciated and often scorned. Today we are witnessing this in our universities, which were created for thinkers but now suppress original thoughts. This talk focuses on three of Hazlitt's central concerns: His book, The Foundations of Morality, established a high standard of morality. Current events demonstrate a widespread lack of morality in our society.His book, Thinking as a Science, elevates thinking to a new level. Today everyone is “thinking outside of the box.” The problem is, most people are not thinking most of the time.His book, Economics in One Lesson, introduces us to classical-liberal thinking, which is foreign to most Americans He wisely pointed out, along with Mises, that economics “is a description, explanation, or analysis of the determinants, consequences, and implications of human action and human choice.” Hazlitt's economic thinking is thus grounded on human behavior. The recent gyrations of the stock market, based on fears of tariffs or higher interest rates, illustrate how markets react in real time to the effects of current policies. Hazlitt was a giant in financial journalism, as noted in Jim Grant's Hazlitt lecture. But Hazlitt was also a public intellectual with unique insights on morality, thinking, and political economy. We will begin with Hazlitt's understanding of morality as embodying long-term thinking, his foundational theme. This is his most powerful message. Morality For Hazlitt, “morality is essentially, not the subordination of the ‘individual' to ‘society' but the subordination of immediate objectives to long-term ones.” Hazlitt realized that the long-term interests of the individual would serve the long-term interests of society. The long-term interests of the individual depend on social cooperation, as Hazlitt points out: “Social cooperation is the foremost means by which the majority of us attain most of our ends.” (The Foundations of Morality, 13) CAS stresses cooperation as the primary way we can progress as a company. It can be challenging and requires humility. We witness the parade of lobbyists seeking government favors: lobbyists from GM, the U.S. steel industry and Tesla, to name just a few. I might add our universities to this list, since the federal government helps to fund their excessive spending. These companies and institutions are rent seekers and tariff promoters. German and Asian automakers, which also manufacture in America, received no bailouts and don't want tariffs. In fact, BMW exports 75 percent of the SUVs it makes in South Carolina. Hazlitt reminds us to let the market decide, as “dying industries absorb labor and capital that should be released for growing industries.” Hazlitt believed that bailouts and tariffs are short-term solutions to long-term industry problems. Hazlitt's concept of morality can be summed up in two of his own sentences: “The conduct we call moral is the conduct we consider likely to lead to the most satisfactory situation in the long run.” And “immoral action is nearly always short-sighted action.” These important principles are lost on our society today. The challenge for entrepreneurs: We must focus on the long term in spite of tremendous pressure to think only over the short term. Markets are very competitive, and sometimes promote short-term thinking and solutions. But we know, short-term decisions can be very costly in the long run. It is imperative to teacher our students about Hazlitt. Many domestic steel manufacturers raised prices over this past year even higher than the steel tariffs. It did not work, Users take notice and take action. In the long term our domestic steel industry will be harmed by tariffs. This is human action in the marketplace. We are witnessing a parade of successful entrepreneurs, as well as leaders in all walks of life, fall from grace because they lacked morality. These individuals may have brilliant ideas, but they lost sight of the long term and failed to learn Hazlitt's most important lesson on morality: High integrity is required for the sustainability of an enterprise over the long term. Our society promotes and praises loud and unethical leaders such as Elizabeth Holmes, Elon Musk, but companies and investors suffer. Companies suffer because of these unethical individuals in charge: think of VW, Lehman Brothers, Tesla, and now Boeing. Conversely, Warren Buffet is not an Austrian Economist but he is an excellent investor, capital allocator has an exceptional reputation for honesty and became rich in the long run. Companies and Investors flock to him. The market requires moral leaders because the market cannot function without integrity. In addition to morality, Hazlitt makes the need for freedom very clear: This freedom applies to entrepreneurs: In order to have the freedom to succeed, we must have the freedom to fail. For Hazlitt, capitalism allows for freedom, It does not hinder freedom: Modern capitalism is not an inevitable or inescapable system but one that has been chosen by Americans. It is a system of freedom. In America, some 300 million people produce 24 percent of the world's goods. America leads the world in innovation, which is the essence of American exceptionalism. Too Many countries undermine freedom and the results are clear. The EU has slow growth and high unemployment. In Venezuela, freedom is denied to the point of starvation. There is concern that the free market creates inequities and failures. But Hazlitt points out that “a free-market system tends to give to every social group, and to every individual within each group, the value of what it or he has contributed to production.” Hazlitt sums it up perfectly. Socialists refuse to understand free markets. They fail to see that production is based on incentives, not coercion. Some politicians live off the fat of the land but hate producers, freedom and success. It would be entertaining to read what Hazlitt might write about the lunacy of the Green New Deal and massive government debt. Successful businesses must have a strong record of morality and must think long term to survive in a competitive marketplace. The CEO of Boeing would probably affirm this statement, at least right now. Unfortunately, Boeing's marketing group convinced the FAA the 737 Max was the same as the old reliable 737. This wasn't true. Even many pilots were not aware of the complexity of the new MCAS software. The FAA did not understand the new Boeing technology, so why are they regulating. The 737 Max's software relied on a single sensor, which failed. Some important safety features were sold as “options,” not standard equipment. Those options weren't chosen by Lion Air or Ethiopian Air, but you can count on them being standard in the future. Internal concerns from Boeing engineers and pilots' reports to the NASA system were ignored. Why? Boeing was focusing on competing with Airbus, which had the lead; morality and long-term thinking be damned. No one will ever think of Boeing in the same way and there could be criminal as well as civil liability. Lesson learned: One must bear in mind, as Hazlitt taught, the long-term consequences of conduct. Industries must be 100 % responsible 100 % of the time. Thinking H. L. Mencken described Hazlitt as "one of the few economists in human history who could really write." Hazlitt wrote well because he thought well. Hazlitt, affirms in his book, Thinking as A Science, that most people are not thinkers. I love Hazlitt's observation that if there is a problem and a solution is needed, “They want to look it up.”In today's world, they'd want to “Google it.” Too many of our educational institutions are propaganda centers and not cultivators of thinking people. Many institutions suppress thinkers and demand compliance with politically correct, non-thinking popular culture, which undermines an entrepreneurial America. I often tell our students and our interns: How you think will determine your future. Good thinking and cooperation are critical to making progress in life. Hazlitt was a great thinker by analyzing the long-term consequences of economic policies, such as tariffs and monetary and fiscal policy. He knew that our thinking will have major consequences, for good or evil. His book, The Failure of the New Economics, masterfully refutes Lord Keynes's General Theory by showing Keynes's theories as nothing more than bad thinking. Two great thinkers in the 20th century were the Wright brothers. The Wright brothers were successful in flight because they visualized the need for “suitable controls” to balance the plane once it is in the air. Our government sponsored Samuel Langley who failed to realize the need for suitable controls in flight. The Wright Brothers took no government money, they are a perfect future model for Entrepreneurs. Thinking ability is the greatest single advantage of the entrepreneur. “The greatest resource,” as Julian Simon put it, “is the human mind.” Thinkers in business applied the principles of “exit” and disruption. Think of technologist Balaji Srinivasin in genomics and mobile money, and of UBER, Airbnb, and self-driving cars. Harvard business professor Clayton Christensen is among those who have studied old industries that were disrupted by new companies with a better approach. Nucor Steel, an upstart in 1960 with its minimills, is now the largest steel company in the U.S. Our only task as entrepreneurs is to serve the user. CaptiveAire thinks in the long-term, continuously. Even with the steel tariffs in effect since 2018, CaptiveAire has refused to raise prices beyond our normal level. We gain market share because we think long-term, and we generate profits by always putting our users' interests first. We witness short-term ideas and fallacious claims every day. Socialism is being sold hard as a solution to a problem that does not exist in America.There is a Green New Deal to save our planet, which is doing pretty well.Debt and deficits do not matter, as long as interest rates are low. Congress does not even attempt to balance the budget.Free trade is portrayed as the enemy of prosperity but in fact it has made us rich. Hayek in The Road to Serfdom described those who would “buy” such fallacious claims as the gullible. Problems and solutions must be well-thought out and understood before changes are made. Good decisions require real thinking, which is hard and time-consuming.. Yet without good thinking, the consequences may be catastrophic. Long-Term Economics Hazlitt sets a clear path for entrepreneurs who think long term. The entrepreneur must make the hard decisions at the right time, based on the known facts that are often sparse in the creative world. In 1978, when we began making kitchen ventilation hoods, the machines to create more hoods faster did not exist… In 1983, the computerized hydraulic-press brakes we needed were invented by Darley in Holland. This technology revolutionized the sheet metal industry. Hydraulic-press brakes increased productivity four times and the now fully-automated machines produce eight times what they did in 1982. In 1988, international alloy prices were spiking, causing stainless steel prices to increase dramatically. My solution was to find an stainless steel product less vulnerable to volatile alloy price spikes. CaptiveAire adopted two important changes that transformed the industry: We light-weighted Commercial hoods, saving 20% of the metal.We changed the standard from 304 to 430 stainless steel, saving another 20%. In 2008, most of the food service industry adopted our 1988 standards using 430 metal when possible. CaptiveAire was a little-known manufacturer with sales of nine million dollars in 1988. These and other decisions propelled us to a half-billion dollars in sales last year. Changes are risky, but the long-term outcome was that CaptiveAire became the leading producer of commercial kitchen hoods in North America. In 1925, Treasury Secretary Andrew Mellon and President Calvin Coolidge applied a supposedly “scientific” method in determining the marginal federal income tax rate. They chose 25 percent. The decreased income tax rate helped America to enjoy the Roaring Twenties' economy. After the stock market crashed in 1929, Hoover prolonged the Great Depression by raising the marginal rate to 63 %. Tariffs averaged 40 % with the Smoot-Hawley Act. Hazlitt clearly describes the tax dilemma: When the total tax burden grows beyond a bearable size, the problem of devising taxes that will not discourage and disrupt production becomes insoluble. Hazlitt cautioned that tariffs do not raise the standard of living; they have the opposite effect, which we witness today. Tariffs are self-inflicted wounds and the current trade wars are slowing economic growth here and abroad. Growth is slowing internationally because of tariffs. On free trade, Hazlitt quotes Adam Smith: In every country it always is and must be the interest of the great body of people to buy whatever they want of those who sell the cheapest. Free trade should be intuitive, especially with the example of the 50 American states, which comprise the largest unilateral free-trade zone in history. But despite the value of free trade, large numbers of Americans believe tariffs raise our standard of living and create jobs. The steel tariffs under President George W. Bush were meant to help American steel companies, but ended up hurting even more companies and causing the loss of 200 thousand jobs in industries using steel. This exemplifies how a short-sighted policy hurts entire industries in the long term. Hazlitt's long-term approach is imperative for America. Three things we desperately need to think about in regard to the long term are: Eliminating fiscal deficitsEducating our childrenFocus on integrity to the market place, not special interests. These policies would greatly benefit our economy: The more the deficit Reducing Government spending allows more investment capital, allocated by entrepreneurs not government. The better our students are educated, the more productive our workforce will be. U.S. K-12 public schools are one of the largest monopolies in history. Costs are high, quality is low, discipline and character formation are gone. In America's public schools, you don't get what you pay for. In 2007, I opened a private K-12 chain of private schools named The Thales Academy. Hazlitt's morality, thinking, and long-term outcomes formed our philosophy. The Thales standard is the highest possible academic quality and character formation for each student at the lowest possible cost. The cost for K-5 is $ 5,000.00 per year and has not changed since the founding. Today we have 8 campuses and 3,100 students. My goal is to grow Thales to 25,000 students as an example of what can be done. The Thales model is changing the way parents think of K-12 education. One important lesson I have learned, which is contrary to conventional wisdom, is that it takes a very long time to establish a great company. And the process never ends! Individuals, companies, and our government must think about the long-term effects of their actions. Conclusion: Why Hazlitt Matters for the Entrepreneur Hazlitt states that an entrepreneur is "a capitalist willing to take unusual risks." His theories of morality and long-term economics are found in every story of a successful entrepreneur. When an entrepreneur is able to achieve excellence, society is benefited as a whole. However, the entrepreneur can only achieve excellence when freedom prevails. Calls for the government to provide its citizens with every necessity, whim, and craving lead to chaos. Venezuela is a leading example of this. This is why the moral entrepreneur is critical to the market: He is not concerned with garnering the most rights for himself, but rather gaining the most customers by serving. Hazlitt explains, “the rules of morality are those rules of conduct that tend most to increase human cooperation, happiness and well-being” The entrepreneur's morality directly correlates with society's well-being; the job is never done for entrepreneurs and economists. Hazlitt never went to college: his thoughts were not dependent on what he already knew, but rather on trying to explore things he did not know. Edwin Land affirmed this way of learning and thinking when he said: “Creativity begins at the edge of the known.” This is how successful entrepreneurs operate: They make guesses and take risks off of the edge of what they already know. They apply their thinking skills to make the best possible decisions using the information they have today to positively influence the long-term future. My Message to entrepreneurs: Maintain humility in realizing that you don't and can't know everything. In the words of Dr. Bill Peterson, “None of us get it all right.” No matter how much you know, it will always be a fraction of what is already known. In the 40 plus years that CaptiveAire has existed, we have made many mistakes but our policy is that if we are wrong, we pay the price, not our users. In 2016, we designed a new leading-edge Roof Top Heating and Cooling unit for commercial buildings. This new technology uses a modulating compressor so it's very efficient and can provide 100 % outside fresh air to buildings. We learned from past errors and elected to have a three-year BETA testing of this product. We know we are 100 % responsible for the performance of this product for the next 20 plus years. Hazlitt's long term philosophy does work in the market and it fact this is how the market works. Entrepreneurs aggressively seek new knowledge and rethink everything: they carry the torch of Hazlitt. We live at a time where Entrepreneurs & Producers are the villains and the heroes are the Government and Politicians. I quote Bill Peterson: “Entrepreneurs are every bit the heroes of our society.” I might add, the takers are the real villains. As we witness rallies and hear cheers for the short-term economic policies, we must think of the long-term to achieve the American dream. Hazlitt, Mises and Hayek lived in more challenging times, but our society is on the road to Serfdom unless the Austrian School prevails; as economic illiteracy rules the day. Hazlitt's morality through long-term thinking is hard to sell to the public because Human Nature lives in the present and wants it now. Our country's foundation is being shaken by the lack of and therefore it is imperative that we integrate long-term thinking into our homes, our schools, our places of work. I challenge you to take up the mantle of Hazlitt and be a courageous writer, debater and teacher of morality and long-term thinking. We could use an army of Hazlitts today: men and women of courage and wisdom, who are unafraid to speak and write the truth. I conclude with Hazlitt's words. The times call for courage. The times call for hard work. But if the demands are high, it is because the stakes are even higher. They are nothing less than the future of liberty, which means the future of civilization.
