Michael Hudson- "if i hadn't met him and really didn't know how stupid he is as a person, then i would think he was deliberately lying but i have met and he really is that stupid" love the wisdom from mr hudson

[saml]

It's so nice to hear Dr. Hudson be so forthright about his views of Krugman. I have long held Krugman in extremely low regard, I appreciate having my feelings supported by someone else who is much more knowledgeable and experienced in this field.

Brialliant and thoroughly engrossing analysis by Michael Hudson, After being lied to 24-7 by mainstream media, what a pleasure it is to have someone treat you with respect and tell the truth.

lol, he went right to the point "the man is really that stupid, i have met him" :)

As a soon-to-be economics graduate student this is such a gift. Thank you

[darktagmaster]

I swear….I never get tired of Hudson calling Krugman an idiot

[willcooper]

WE're so fortunate to have Michael Hudson with us.

As always, thank you Michael Hudson for the IQ Boost.

Thank you Michael for your honest intellectual arguments. Krugman is really a fool not to understand that there is a shift in the international dollar system and the formation of an alternative system to the dollar predominance.

Love Michael Hudson.... he's been telling us how things really are in the financial world all of his life.

This is what it looks like when you really know wtf you're talking about. Along with Obama, this also points to the increasing irrelevancy of a Nobel prize.

“NY times is wrong” not a surprise at all lol

[maxsweetman]

Thanks Ben Michael is a gem
Because of him I understand more about my country and how it’s whole system is flawed

[justice.freedom.mankind]

It is always a pleasure listening to Professor Michael Hudson! Thank you very much Ben for that!

[JeBubbieSpubbies]

That burn from Michael Hudson towards Paul Krugman at the beginning was great! I trust his assessment, on both the US economic outlook as well as Paul Krugman's intelligence!

[IEtoileFilanteI]

"The prerequisite for winning the Nobel prize is to not understand foreign trade." Soooo SAVAGE 😂

[ken]

Michael Hudson truly deserves the noble prize in economics. I subscribed to geopolitical economy report but I was involuntarily unsubscribed by YouTube algorithm. Michael’s analysis is right on.

[alanserjeant]

Has Krugman been right about anything ? Ever ??

[laogong]

Mr Hudson in full, factual and analytical flow. A wonderful spectacle. Thank you both.

[encomunismo]

Excellent conversation. The only fault is that it does not last two more hours. Thank you both and congratulations.
