20 minutes with Yanis Varoufakis produces more insight than all the mainstream media combined. It really makes you realize how impoverished our national dialogue has become.

[Zummbot]

“Capitalism without debt is like Christianity without hell.” wow what a quote

[pameladwyer]

I usually find financial experts extremely boring to listen to - this gentleman was very easy to understand, and interesting. Thanks, David!

[wabisabi]

"Capitalism without debt is like Christianity without hell: it doesn't work." Thanks for having Varoufakis on; please have Mark Blyth on soon!

[Quantumtalesxx]

I am Greek and I am very proud to have this man represent me in the Greek parliament. Bravo Yani!

[AlxParrish]

I can't think of anything more dystopian than living on digital currency in a techno-feudal system....while the ocean slowly loses its ability to produce oxygen. Wow, what a dark future.

An ideal dinner party guest, and personal hero of mine, Yanis Varoufakis.

[realzachfluke]

Yanis is a treasure of this Earth. The way he is able to communicate the issues and connect so many dots that most people (including myself) just never would've picked up on otherwise, is truly stunning. He is a magnificent speaker, with absolutely priceless wisdom to share.
The first time I heard him years ago taught me this: whenever Yanis speaks, I damn well am going to listen.

Thank you David, this was incredibly important to bring to your audience, and judging by the comments, it looks like everybody else thought so too ✊

[KillkingTime]

Yanis speaks in a balanced informative fashion.
Great talk.

[mystryfine]

Yanis is a much needed voice. Kudos to David for giving him this exposure.

[ShadowTasos]

You should really bring Yanis on more, David. Truly an incredible economist and a remarkable communicator. What I love most about him is that his views are very holistic. He understands how a variety of issues of our economic system are intertwined and he breaks it down wonderfully for us. Many can identify the issue with corporations being given loans which then turn into stock buybacks, rather than reinvestment. Not many can connect the dots, and definitely not as beautifully as he did, with the fact that plays a big role into why social democracy like systems are much harder now under that paradigm, with the banking sector becoming the primary means of expanding the economy, rather than the industrial second. Always brilliant to listen to him.

[lukasmolcic]

more Yanis please, one of the most important figures on the left in our time

[johnpower]

I wish he'd do more interviews on American platforms. He's tremendous

[neorich]

I love listening to Yanis speaking.
He's occasionally a guest on the UK, political debate show "Question Time."
He always comes across as very well informed, informative and balanced.
The voice of reason.

[TomandAmyinthePI]

Republicans Love Corporate Welfare but God forbid We should give financial assistance to the working and middle class

[tomjoad]

Capitalism without debt is like Christianity without hell. That is such a darkly funny, but true statement.

[FandangoJon]

I was expecting to flip through this, but ended up finding it so incredibly interesting and thoughtful that the time blew by. Fantastic guest and interview.

[schadowizationproductions]

This man has the best metaphors: "Capitalism without debt is like Christianity without hell." (on not forgiving debt:) "It's like beating up a sick cow."

[MrGotchaback]

That was a great interview, and very educational.

[MsUtuber]

This guy really knows his stuff. Thanks for having him on. Thank you, Yanis, for coming on.
