I think they should also take account for consumerism and it's affect on Global warming, because globalization is taking advantage of third world countries where usage of coal is still the primary energy resource for factories & homes.

Impressive to see two of these three economists unable to use their microphones correctly so that their audience can hear what they are saying. Dr. Krugman is the exception.

AT 1:00 he said that inequality was better in the us during the beginnings of the country... why do i feel like slaves are not being taken into account when he says such a thing.
