    Not that it matters, but I love your editing. And saw you tonight in La Grange and thanks for a lovely evening. :)

    I love Willy, I love Kiva, but I DON’T love the free-market. I find the system (in its ideal form) to be brilliantly efficient and practical, BUT it ignores the need for compassion, equality and social justice. Capitalist economics neglect affordable services for the poor and promote exploitation to make profit. So, although I think Kiva is a great aid for the system we’re stuck with now, I think that system kinda sucks. There are more important things than wealth fueled by consumerism. :)

    PrettyniceB, it’s only too fast if you can’t follow what he’s saying, and I don’t think it’s difficult to follow at all.

    Could Willy also defend the regulation of capitalism?

    I just unsubbed from this station after not wanting to watch your videos for the last two months….
    1. you talk to fast(I like to breathe when the person in the video breathes-but you edit that out)
    2. there are way to many skits and edits clicking back to your face over and over again.
    3. I actually could focus on what you were saying when your face isn’t always in the screen.
    I like the puppy and this example of capitalism, I really do like your discussion. BUT your editing is annoying

    I think rampant capitalism is very important in developing economies. Once we get into the realm of us who have more-than-plenty, we see the problems of, say, commodity fetishism and giganto-greed and vastly unequal concentration of wealth and that thing that I don’t have a name for it but essentially it’s when someone wants to make a profit on selling something that doesn’t really do any good but that people buy anyway because they don’t really pay attention.

  14. ultravioletHK on October 14th, 2009 2:06 am

    That was almost on the level with Atlas Shrugged. And I enjoyed your stint as a right-wing facist. :)
    Oh, John…you make my day on a daily basis.

    Did I miss something? When did Willy get an elephant costume? I didn’t know the goal of puppy-sized elephants was so close!

  16. CrazyCanine2001 on October 14th, 2009 2:06 am

    what an excellent quality video, what is your cam mark, and video format used? =P
    anyway, I also make my little maltese costumed; she’s adorable. Yours too

    She’s done that, but it doesn’t matter. They say “its just a formality and she might have had plastic surgery.”

    Willy is the cuteness, and this video just served as a minor primer to the econ classes I took a few semesters ago in college and the one I took in high school. Sweet!
