One question from the audience? Yes, MN's reaction was appropriate.

Disappointing for an incredible lecture. Had no idea how much WWI had determined the current world until listening to this guy.

MN's reaction is actually quite polite, my Lord

Holy crap; did the audience really get so little out of this lecture that they ask only one question?!

I thought the same thing until I realized Mr Neiberg has given this essential presentation on several occasions at different venues which I watched on TH-cam. Probably most of the audience is familiar with this and no new ground was covered here. Hence , , , , ,

Great lecture. However, around 17:00 he mentions the first income tax and the Fed as coming in to deal with the flood of european money during the war; the war didn't start until 1914, while the income tax and Fed both passed in 1913. The Fed's creation dates specifically to 1907, while the income tax had been a long-running goal of the progressive movement going back decades.
Neither policy had anything to do with the war.
