Krugman on Piketty: Why we're in a new Gilded Age

[tmonster]

yes and no.

Data can be manipulated,

raw data is not manipulated data, from the looks of it, along with his analysis, Piketty make available his raw data

not that that is what's been done here.

that is my sense as well

I take that as a "no"?

?????

 

[NZA]

Yeah.

He's got THREE BBC documentary series that are worth watching one weekend.

Century of the Self (my favorite)

The Power of Nightmares

The Trap

Adam Curtis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Each are about 3 hours long.

i can definitely vouch for century of the self though i think it may have caused people to overstate bernays' power or innovation

Piketty taken apart fairly decisively
