Richard Wilkinson - How Income Inequalities Harms Economies
We feel instinctively that societies with huge income gaps are somehow going wrong. Richard Wilkinson charts the hard data on economic inequality, and shows what gets worse when rich and poor are too far apart: real effects on health, lifespan, even such basic values as trust.

Agenda 21 explained very well. Including implications it will have on humanity. Opinions within the video come in some cases from those that were in on the negotiations, other cases from critics or activists against Agenda 21. Truly an interesting watch.

Fight of the Century: Keynes vs. Hayek (Round 2)
Go to http://econstories.tv for EconStories content and materials.
Produced by Emergent Order. Visit us at http://emergentorder.com.
"Fight of the Century" is the new economics hip-hop music video by John Papola and Russ Roberts at http://EconStories.tv.
According to the National Bureau of Economic Research, the Great Recession ended almost two years ago, in the summer of 2009. Yet we're all uneasy. Job growth has been disappointing. The recovery seems fragile. Where should we head from here? Is that question even meaningful? Can the government steer the economy or have past attempts helped create the mess we're still in?
In "Fight of the Century", Keynes and Hayek weigh in on these central questions. Do we need more government spending or less? What's the evidence that government spending promotes prosperity in troubled times? Can war or natural disasters paradoxically be good for an economy in a slump? Should more spending come from the top down or from the bottom up? What are the ultimate sources of prosperity?
Keynes and Hayek never agreed on the answers to these questions and they still don't. Let's listen to the greats. See Keynes and Hayek throwing down in "Fight of the Century"!
Starring Billy and Adam from http://www.billyandadam.com

Lipstick on a Pig - The REAL Story
Democratic Presidential Candidate Barack Obama defends himself stands up against false accusations from the Republican Presidential Candidate John McCain.
Earlier this week (09.09.2008) the McCain camp attacked Barack Obama calling him a sexist, and demanding an apology for a remark he made about putting Lipstick on a Pig.
See for yourself what he was actually talking about, and that ironically enough it was McCain who was more of a sexist in his use of this EXACT terminology.
Let's get back to the issues people!

If we're addicted to oil, our twelve-step program should begin with admitting that we have a problem. As the price of oil creeps higher, finding new energy sources is more important than ever. But the search for alternatives, combined with environmental disruptions, is putting new pressures on other essentials like food. There are some things that are going well in the world. Right now, the economy is not one of them. Animation & Design by Chris Weller Directed by Max Joseph Music: "Genesis" by Justice
