Thoughts on Bernie in this clip?

Also: Who's your favourite for the GOP nomination? I ask about the Republicans because the Democratic race just seems dead in the water, at the moment.

I guess I admire his ability to own up to his ideas. No dancing around.

I do not want him to be our president, but he owns up to his ideas, which is respectable.

I'd say he danced around; or that he's incapable of nuance. He didn't really say anything of substance.

Wanting universal healthcare and the government to not incessantly represent the interests of the rich doesn't really make you a progressive, and certainly not a socialist.

I should clarify I think he doesn't dance around compared to other politicians as much (compare him to Trump). He at least says policies he wants. No vague "make america great again." He is definitely vague compared to say, an economist talking about policy.

Sticky hyperinflation is here to stay. Clearly Yellen needs to raise interest rates to curb it.

If only these discussion threads were on the gold standard, we wouldn't ever have to worry about thread hyperinflation.

I think /r/Europe has taken the prize as my least favorite sub. Sure the anti trade rhetoric is bad but at least no one is dying from it. The whole let me quote a couple of uncontextualizdd lines from borjas to justify my xenophobia of people fleeing from war torn areas is legitimately infuriating. people area actually dying because you and the people you elect refuse to accept that the belief that migration might marginally lower your standard of living is as baseless as it callous.

What are the economic implications of the mass immigration in Europe right now? There are so many arguments on both sides of the issue so most discussions tend to get dumb fast, but im curious to what you guys have to say about it.

Undergrads: What class are you most excited about this semester?

mine is international development. I think we are going to start to get into the nitty gritty of how hard it is to measure anything or know anything.
