I am in the U.S. and What you Describe Is Exactly What Is Also Going On In The United States, Starting With President Obama and Going to the Extreme Under the Biden, Harris Administration !! Biden Has Opened Our Countries Borders to Criminals, Rapists, Violent Gangs and Terrorists and they are Ruining Our Country From Within !! He Sent Billions To Iran Our Enemy !!! To Ukraine Which Most of the American People Do Not Support !! Biden Sold Our Oil Reserves, Needed for Our Military to CHINA !!! His Trillion Dollar Spending Is Ruining Our Economy and Putting the Future of Our Children In Tremendous "Debt" and Food Prices Have Sky Rocketed !! Stop All Oil Drilling in the US, By Increasing Regulations and Not Issuing Drilling Permits !! Biden Should Be Arrested For Treason to Our Country !! Under President Trump, Our Economy Was Great, Food prices were Half of what they are now, He Filled Our Oil Reserves and He increased Our Military !! Biden Lost Millions of Great, Experienced Military People By Issuing A Regulation that they All Must Be Vaccinated and Would Not Accept ANY Exceptions, For Religious Beliefs, Health, or Anything Else. We Need Trump In Office, Or Our Country Will Be Under Total Control of the Elite Marxist Democrats !!
When this man was at the head of the bank of Italy, he sold 450 tons of public gold bc gold does not give interests. It grows by about 10% a yr but that does not count. He then invested the proceeds in an american fund called long term capital management which then went belĺy up. He was then nominated at the head of the european bank!
Gold only gains value or loses value. It doesn't gain interest. Interest can be spent. It doesn't fund projects that will benefit the citizens that own the gold until it is sold.
@@svenhanson398this comment is very unclear to say the least however the comment above is also very confusing too. Until we stop to measure gold value in dollar term.
@svenhanson398 I agree that gold reserves do not benefit a country even if that gold reserve increases in value. It's just wasted as a reserve. I also agree that the investment was wrong and should be investigated for corruption. However if the proceeds of the sale of gold had been used for infrastructure projects, that would have been a wise use of the asset. Even personal gold, jewelry, or coins have no value until they are sold. Yes, they appreciate, but there is a difference between an asset appreciating and the value of it. If you can't spend it, it has no real value.
A good presentation, but he clearly ignores the elephant in the room. He fails to address how open door immigration policies have led to a dramatic increase in violent crime and have acted to suppress wages while putting a huge strain on health care and exacerbating an already severe affordable housing crisis.
As usual, blablabla and NO action to be seen.. the EU just syphon our money to give " nice" reports and presentations...but no action.. even after this Draghi report, they stay blind.. blindness is their specialty.. for years they know the state of EU economies and do nothing but would rather "help"Ukraine instead of EU companies... No European internet? Ask them why...they have been blind for decades....
I live in italy. This man was nominated prime minister to implement anticonstitutional measures like the obligatory shot. He has no culture. Does not know History. Just executes the orders.
The trouble seems to be the economic policies are geared towards rewarding financiers profiting from speculative investment. Most people sense this acutely now no matter what rhetoric they use to complain about it.
Energy in the EU is 5x more expensive than in the USA or China. Ask UK INEOS or German BASF why they will move out of Europe.... More Draghi centralisation will result in more legislation and even higher costs for business. We need a smaller Brussels with far less legislation and back to a FEDERATION of States! Cheaper Energy by pushing Nuclear and reducing all Green Power which is far more expensive as a result of its internittency. Smaller Brussels with far les legislation to reduce significant cost from it.
How can that be since they sell it at 3 times the price to Europe now than what Europe was buying at before they blew up the pipeline. Is it subsidies by the US government keeping the price low or what? Because if that's the case it's not cheaper, it's just payed for in another way
So i just checked the data you are referring too. Its just true for Germany, England, Italy and Austria. There is also another funny statistic, while global energy costs have gone down for most countries starting in 2023, it's not true for the US. They are steadily increasing. Must be the green act, sorry the inflation reduction act. They will catch up with the rest of the "green" countries (and Italy) soon enough, just give them time. Funny enough France is at about half the cost of the other green countries. Guess that nuclear energy is paying off
Rather than racking your brain trying to figure out how it all went so very wrong... read the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion, the plan is all layed out there, the elephant in the room none of these bureaucrats dare to mention
Coal and steel market consolidation = clear benefits for all. Poor country joining EU = clear benefit for poor country. Big countries in EU = clout (though value for money is debated internally.

By definition an “elite” is elite precisely because they sit at the top of the current order. Why would someone willingly disrupt the current order when they are its biggest beneficiary? It’s completely understandable that change would be viewed negatively by those who benefit most from the status quo. The real question is why the democratic mechanism is failing to allow the non beneficiaries to change things
Because the average person isn't exactly wise/educated/intelligent. The question should be, why do we blindly support democracy, when it's clearly failing every single democratic country?
Yes, it really is so bad. I strongly suggest Hungary, and the Mathias Corvinus Collegium and the Fidesz party with it, leave the EU at the earliest possible date in order to avoid further suffering. For everybody.
No job turnover since the 70's. Actually, we can go earlier than that, when in the 60's, big corporations took over farms, businesses (mom and pop shops), mines, grocery stores, etc etc, and utilized slave labour by 3rd world countries, then charged higher fees for their goods and wares, allowed those slave labourers to have access to our countries, gave them free education, health care, allowed them to provide labour for cash under the table, where they don't contribute to taxes, and then called us racist for wanting to stop the flow of cheap labour. The elite say the labourers are taken jobs that no one wants. In truth, they were providing such low fees for their services, that they took the average wage earner in these first world countries out of their employment. If a German white woman charges 60 Euro to clean a house, and she pays taxes on that, but a Portuguese immigrant charges 20 Euro to do the same job, but does it for cash under the table, guess what. The German will lose her job. But yet her taxes pay for all the benefits that this illegal labourer from Portugal is garnering. That's not racist, that's just bad housekeeping by the German gov't. The Portuguese gov'ts also don't want slave labourers pouring into their country from Africa or China, undermining the wages of their own people. None of these people on this panel have ever worked a real job.
Emulating the US sounds very naive, especially since the EU lacks creativity, education, and highly-skilled workers. Which is especially relevant when it comes to technology. The biggest technological export in the EU is cars, which isn't exactly innovative, and they're lagging behind even in that field, e.g., electric vehicles. Europe decided to spend it's resources on war rather than education, they still suffer from it to this very day, they won't stop suffering from it any time soon. Of course, robbing member states out of resources to benefit the very few ruling elites, reminds me of a very dark time in Europe -- that didn't change, either. Cultures do not change so quickly.
Interesting that he criticizes Draghi for not presenting anything new, but the speaker himself doesn't suggest anything new....just some vaguely neoliberal arguments with no specific examples.
Not sure i fully agree with him on most of what he said but his has made some valid critiques mixed with nonsense. As much as he makes very interesting and valid critiques, he mixes in some non-intervention absolutism which is nothing promising and only guarantees a dangerous misguided approach.
What school teaches the ideology of Draghi epic ignorance? Where is the best place to meat a smart European? America. Where is the best place to meat a smart American? China. Britain and Germany serves as a reminders that national greatness is fleeting (and non correlated to the food).
Well, I wouldn't describe the green-shooting-on-the-foot policy as 'averse to risk and disruption'. It think it's much easier. It is about people getting very old and retaining power much longer after their brain stops being fully functional.

Well, not only is the economy political but there is nothing more political than the economy . So, what is the point?
Why would you "emulate" dying economy as Draghi suggests? Why not emulate growing economies?
A growing economy like who? China.
Government needs to hold innovators responsible for preventing or repairing degradation of the health of people from their innovations.
Outstanding analysis. Draghi is above all a politician.
