This French professor is good. Most big shots from the academic world are willing servants for parasitic bankers! This guy is exceptional. His background in sociology (study of society) gives him an advantge to define the problem better than many economic professors whose minds have already been corrupted by the bankers' version of irrational economic theories. The nature of today's economic problem is not about economics. Rather, there are some bad elements in the society that cause the problem with which to profit at the expanse of the great many others. What he said at the end is abosolutely remarkable. Watch from 12:30.
