The title of this is:

"Is Capitalism Humane?"

Very thought provoking from an economic and moral perspective.

"Milton Friedman was an American economist who received the 1976 Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences for his research on consumption analysis, monetary history and theory and the complexity of stabilization policy."

Great interview and great book.

Interview with Thomas Sowell, author of "Intellectuals and Society".

A very wise and humble man.

I used the what music are you listening to thread to post some youtube videos but I realize this is the thread where they should go:

So here are a quick few:

https://www1.123moviesfull.me/tv/the-expanse-season-2/3173-10/watching/?ep=3174&sv=6

You can find the expanse by looking for "watch the expanse online 123" and you'll find a good link, lovely scifi show about, from my early season 2 look, what happens if the tiberium asteroid doesn't strike earth.

And ofcourse my personal favorite:



Laughed way too hard at this one.

Or, E Pluribus Loco-Minded Nudniks, In Loco Parentis Unum

Petit Vieux Moi, a Highly-Educated, Widely-Cultured White Male Professional Of A Certain Age (i.e., Piratically Facing Sixty) -- currently identifying 
as an STO-Aligned World-Citizen (i.e., Just Another Bozo On The Short-Bus To Enlightenment) on a mostly provincialism-wracked planet painfully 
and grudgingly approaching  conscious membership in a certain Intergalactic Confederation of Planets -- in a local bistro any morning, after a quick 
recon of the so-called "news," calmly but ruefully thinking over the implications for human durability in mankind's near-future of the effect upon it 
of the modern scientifically-systematized, heavily-weaponized psychosocial/political-conditioning scene, it being of an artificially-induced and contin-
ually-orchestrated nature of the order and magnitude of, say, Mao's classically-totalitarian 思想改造 (Thought Reform program). All of which don't 
make you half-think -- if, of course, you are capable of actual thought, and not merely its prevalent virally-spread mimetic simulacrum: rote-
learned/conditioned pseudothought-patterning, reflexively triggered into operation quasi-hypnotically by the requisite supernormal-stimulus' catalytic 
suggestion.

Ca. April 2017, "The 'Stunning Fragility' & Vindictive Political Correctness of Today's Students" - Jonathan Haidt
Prompted by the Charles Murray protest at Middlebury College, Jonathan Haidt & Frank Bruni discuss the "stunning fragility"
of a bubble-wrapped [and filter-bubbled!] generation allergic to political diversity & debate.

Of course, their elders of preceding generations are not themselves exactly flawless in their ability to tell one thing from another thing
when one end of a spectrum is craftily presented to them by perception-management professionals in psywar as a plausible (but false)
dichotomy. Instead of an actual This  Vs. That, gullible kids of all ages are cunningly fed a designedly-believable, abstract mental-model 
of This Vs. Another-Practically-Identical-But-Purportedly-Opposite-This. At this dirt-simple level of mass mind-control, simple-minded 
formulae of Dr.-Seuss-worthy, self-evidently-wicked-folly are paradoxically more readily misperceived by a certain type of receptive 
"true-believer" personality (when it is fed to them in suitably jargon-filled, hyperemotionalized and rationality-despising agitprop-pieces 
of "postmodern social-theory analysis," etc. etc.) as deeply-thought-out, even profoundly-philosophically Universally-Eternally-True patterns 
of (divinely revealed?) belief calling for immediate and ruthlessly relentless revolutionary direct-action and culture-jamming, and so on -- 
in "selflessly objective/rational/logical service" to a "Higher Good" which divinely countenances from On High any amount of egg-breaking
(of Unprogressive Hearts, Minds, and Souls) and all other utterly-swinish Necessary Means to the Devoutly-Wishèd Omelette of the Progressive 
Ends (which by comparison make the paradise of nirvana look like a two-bit amusement-park ride).

Me, at home at the end of any day, after a brief scan of the latest news, calmly contemplating the implications

Where has all this brought China to, nowadays? This, for instance: 
https://foreignpolicy.com/2018/11/16/chinas-orwellian-social-credit-score-isnt-real/ (Note: when the augustly elite and ultra-influential NYC-based Council on Foreign Relations crawls out from under its filter-bubble-protected Rockefellerian rock to pontificate about the "harmless" nature of what only "superficially appears" to be some appallingly-Orwellian new mass-control phenomenon being foisted upon an already-oppressed population by its Fearless Puppet-Leaders anywhere from Alaska to Zanzibar (interpretations to the contrary being merely feverish fear-projections of childish, uninformed, unprogressive, isolationist, and paranoid minds (i.e., pretty much anyone not currently a member of the CFR or a close relative to someone who is, &/or an heir -- or, if not, who could be socially acceptable as a member of the CFR or be such a person's close relative &/or heir) you can be 99 & 44/100th% sure that the truth of the matter lies somewhere around, oh, say, diametrically opposite to the CFR's authoritative, end-of-story pronouncement, sort of like:
https://technode.com/2018/10/23/china-social-credit/
And just think, this dystopian type of AI-run panoptic cybernetic social-engineering systemry is coming, plausible techno-step by techno-step, to a Western democratic republic near or actually surrounding you! (If you live in the U.S. or the U.K. or various Euronations) Yay! (If you don't cheer, your Social Credit will retroactively reflect this in demerits when it's finally up and running.) Its advent will be greased along the way by the Intelligent Imbecile class of Apolitical But Pro-Corporatist Cybernerds who naturally, like the easily-manipulated childishly-entranced-by-mechanical-wonders dweebs that they are, will effectively make the necessary "normalizing" enculturing links to existing inhumanely-weaponized systems of social control (e.g., the completely digitized and incredibly invasive financial credit-rating system already in effect, which ignores any pretense on your part to privacy and controls your ability to legitimately buy/rent/lease this or that, or take out this or that loan, etc.; I won't even begin to go into the cryptic none-of-your-damn-business U.S. Dept. of Homeland Defense "potential terrorist"-rating system . . .); then, in turn, the usual Serviceable Villains of Marketing will summon up their inevitable Perfect Storm of Schlockmeistering by matching gee-whiz/sexy aspects of the Covertly-Malign Dual-Use Technology they're flogging to the existing Most-Reprehensible Weaknesses in Human Vanity, in a reprise of the old-reliable Trade In Your Old Freedom For New, Improved Security! campaign. Works like a charm! I see no down-side, except perhaps for the installment of the aimed-for Final Steady-State of Monolithic Cybernetically-Controlled Global Helotism -- a mere bagatelle!

* Just kidding. THIS, on the other hand, is appallingly NSFW -- In fact, DO NOT WATCH UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!!!

I did warn you, didn't I. But no, you had to . . . *sigh* . . . oh well, my conscience is clear, & I will soldier bravely on, unbowed --
until my divinely-directed revolutionary social-change work is done, and I can lay my 人类灵魂的工程师's (Engineer of the Human Soul's**) burden 
down on the shore of the piranha-infested moat surrounding the Promised Land of Bilko and Money.  Avanti! For Duty and Humanity!
