Jeffrey Sachs Interview - The Biggest Mistake Imaginable.
youtube
I am of the opinion that none of the current conflicts need to be happening. I am also throughly disappointed with the New York Times and the Washington Post's failure to report the truth about these insane wars. We absolutely need an adversarial press asking difficult questions.

Jeffrey Sachs: Bipartisan Support of War, from Iraq to Ukraine, Is Helping Fuel U.S. Debt Crisis
youtube
         The United States faces a default on its debt in early June if a deal on the debt ceiling is not reached between the Biden administration and Republicans in Congress before then. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy is pushing for sweeping budget cuts and new work requirements for recipients of government programs, including Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and SNAP. Notably, however, neither Republicans nor Democrats are proposing cuts to one of the biggest drivers of the nation’s debt: the massive U.S. military budget. “We’ve got to get this military-industrial lobby under control, but it’s hard to do, because it’s a bipartisan affair,” says our guest, economist Jeffrey Sachs, whose recent article is headlined “America’s Wars and the US Debt Crisis.” Transcript: https://www.democracynow.org/2023/5/2...

I close with words of wisdom from two scholars who wrote about the dangers of hubris in social change. Karl Popper wrote in 1957: The piecemeal engineer knows, like Socrates, how little he knows. He knows that we can learn only from our mistakes. Accordingly, he will make his way, step by step, carefully comparing the results expected with the results achieved, and always on the look-out for the unavoidable unwanted consequences of any reform; and he will avoid undertaking reforms of a complexity and scope which makes it impossible for him to disentangle causes and effects, and to know what he is really doing .... Holistic or Utopian social engineering, as opposed to piecemeal social engineering ... aims at remodeling the "whole of society" in accordance with a definite plan or blueprint (Popper 2002, p.61). Yale anthropologist and political scientist James C. Scott has a brilliant review of top- down plans in his 1998 classic Seeing Like a State. He sums up the implications of review for policy making: "In an experimental approach to social change, presume that we cannot know the consequences of our interventions in advance. Given this postulate of ignorance, prefer wherever possible to take a small step, stand back, observe, and then plan the next small move" (p. 345). Small moves can cumulate into bigger benefits. Perhaps the rich country public will be more willing to increase aid when they see aid projects working well according to independent evaluation and feedback from the poor, as opposed to realizing once again that Big Pushes do not deliver on their utopian goal.

Jeffrey Sachs dice que los partidarios occidentales de Kiev están “cegados” por su odio a Rusia “Quieren tanto luchar contra Rusia y que alguien más pelee y muera, que quieren otro reclutamiento masivo de los jóvenes ucranianos restantes que puedan ser sacados de las calles y arrojados a los campos de exterminio”, afirmó el economista.

About Covid....
This is from last year, I think....
How things get covered up and how people get cancelled when they try to do the right things...
Not Proofs, but how stories are made up

“Speaking in Madrid last month, economist Jeffrey Sachs called the current situation “a mess” and blamed diminishing American leadership for it, identifying the pandemic as one of the US failures. He said he was convinced that the virus “came out of US lab biotechnology” as opposed to evolving naturally, citing his experience with the authoritative British medical journal. Volodin asserted that the US government would not comment on Sachs’ remarks because President Joe Biden is “afraid that the world will know the truth about the true culprit of the pandemic.” He added that the suffering of millions of people who contracted the virus, including the many who passed away, and the economic crisis caused by the pandemic were the US’ responsibility. “The US must compensate the damage to all nations affected,” he demanded.

Jeffrey Sachs: U.S. Policy & "West's False Narrative" Stoking Tensions with Russia, China.
Aug 30, 2022  
We discuss Western hegemony and U.S. policy in Russia, Ukraine and China with Columbia University economist Jeffrey Sachs, whose new article is headlined "The West's False Narrative About Russia and China." Sachs says the bipartisan U.S. approach to foreign policy is "unaccountably dangerous and wrongheaded," and warns the U.S. is creating "a recipe for yet another war" in East Asia.
