Gentlemen, we've talked an awful lot on our air recently about socialism versus capitalism,
2
defending capitalism, all of the different political pressures that are kind of being brought as we get into another election year.
3
And I thought maybe we could talk about that this morning, too.
4
Over the weekend, several questions came up about defending capitalism.
5
And Warren, you did step out and say that you're a card-carrying member,
6
a card-carrying capitalist in front of everyone.
7
What do you think about the attacks that we've seen to this point on capitalism?
8
Well, I don't think people exactly even know what they're talking about.
9
It isn't that capitalism is perfect.
10
But if you look at what was here in 1776 and look at what is here now,
11
this country has done an incredible job in terms of the deployment of resources and human ingenuity.
12
And that is a product of the system.
13
Now, does that mean that Every decision should be made simply by open market determinants.
14
There's a need for regulation, obviously.
15
And there are things that have long-term costs and might not get built in.
16
But the idea of people unleashing their potential,
17
using the resources they have to create what we have now,
18
from what was here 240-some years ago, it's absolutely a miracle and what all three of us have seen during our lifetime.
19
And if you compare that with any centralized planned economy,
20
I think we win hands down.
21
And I think we've just started with what capitalism can produce in the United States.
22
But I do think that,
23
obviously, it needs certain rules and regulations.
24
BILL MOYERS, Bill, you did an interview in Davos with someone and I,
25
you made a pretty innocuous statement that you looked around,
26
you thought capitalism was the best system
27
and you got attacked online from all these people who came
28
up with these crazy statements about how could you say things like that.
29
I mean, what do you think about the climate when you see things like that?
30
Well, some people think when you defend capitalism,
31
you're defending the tax rates we have today and saying that higher absolute tax rates or more progressive tax rates,
32
that you're disagreeing with them.
33
And I don't think Warren and I are disagreeing that you could make the taxes more progressive.
34
In fact, we've been very explicit in some areas,
35
like the estate tax, and saying we think that would be a good thing.
36
Socialism… You got your wish, it came back.
37
Socialism used to mean that the state controlled the means of production.
38
And a lot of people who are promoting socialism actually aren't using that classic definition.
39
So what we're going to have is capitalism with some level of taxation.
40
most people really aren't arguing against capitalism.
41
There may be a few,
42
but most people are just saying that the taxes should change.
43
Although you do have someone who I think is polling the second highest in the Democratic Party right now,
44
who was a socialist until very recently, Bernie Sanders.
45
Well, whether or not he was a socialist by the full term of that,
46
Now, there is some muddy areas.
47
When you start to say there shouldn't be any billionaires,
48
that you have some cap on wealth or something like that,
49
that goes beyond what I think.
50
And you could say I'm self-interested.
51
Really?
52
We will accept the present ones.
53
But government needs to reallocate some resources.
54
I mean, the extreme case would be in World War II.
55
I mean, that's the closest we've come to socialism.
56
You had an office of Price Administration.
57
You had a war production board.
58
I mean, but during peacetime,
59
you're always prepared for war,
60
and you do that through government.
61
Government needs to reallocate some resources.
62
But the market system, which exists under capitalism,
63
is an extraordinarily effective way,
64
and has proven it, of using resources,
65
human and other kinds, to produce incredible goods.
66
And Henry Ford could learn,
67
devise a system that could turn out a couple million cars a year,
68
but he could only use half a dozen himself,
69
or his whole family could use 50.
70
I mean, he had to turn out a couple million cars that other people got to use.
71
And that would not have,
72
in my view, I think if you'd set up a government bureau in 1850
73
and given them 100 years of all the coronals,
74
you'd have ever come up with anything like the assembly lines of Ford and all of the things that have happened.
75
Human ingenuity is incredible.
76
And you want something that maximizes its use
77
and then curbs a few of the ideas
78
that some of those people may have to sort of have it fall for themselves.
79
Charlie, you've made the same point.
80
The great proof of how capitalism works is China.
81
When China copied Singapore and let the farmers own their own plots
82
and let the manufacturers own their own businesses and so forth,
83
China's productivity increased many times.
84
And they went from rural poverty to modern extreme wealth.
85
And they did it by adopting a fair amount of capitalism.
86
Now, if a Democratic politician doesn't understand that, he's nuts.
87
You've made the same point,
88
though, Charlie, that you think private sector does it much better than the government sector.
89
However, a lot of these people who are running also want to make government much bigger.
90
Do you have a quarrel with that or no?
91
Well, as they say, if you love your post office,
92
you're going to love socialized medicine.
93
And they don't necessarily want to make it bigger in terms of redistributing.
94
They may want to, the market system is brutal,
95
and it leaves behind people who are perfectly wonderful people who don't have market-related talents.
96
Who are just unlucky.
97
Yeah, just plain unlucky.
98
And in a rich society,
99
believe me, if we have a war or something like that,
100
we call on those people and,
101
you know, pay them practically nothing to go fight for us.
102
AND WE WANT GOOD FLOWING,
103
BUT IT'S GOING TO DISPLACE THE TEXTILE WORKER THAT WE USED TO HAVE AND SO ON.
104
SO THE FUNCTION OF GOVERNMENT IS NOT GOING TO GET BIGGER.
105
IT MAY BE IN AN IMPORTANT WAY TO TAKE CARE OF PEOPLE WHO,
106
FOR ONE REASON OR ANOTHER,
107
So the function of government is not necessarily to get bigger.
108
It may be in an important way to take care of people who,
109
for one reason or another,
110
get left behind in a market system that you also regard as essentially this huge source of wealth and goods and services.
111
So how do you fix the problems,
112
or at least the perception of problems,
113
which there's a huge perception out there in the American voting right now? obviously would help
114
if our government were wiser and it would be wiser
115
if the two sides didn't hate each other
116
so much anger drives out reason
117
and there is absolute cold fury between politicians on one side and politicians on the other it's quite counterproductive for
118
that reason i don't allow myself to get angry at politicians
119
how would you fix it well i just I just don't let myself get that angry at politicians.
120
I don't expect them to be...
121
Berger has worked better because Charlie and I have never been mad at each other.
122
Yeah.
123
It just does.
124
I mean, way better.
125
If we got mad at each other,
126
I'd try and kill his deals,
127
he'd try to kill my deals.
128
It just doesn't work that way.
129
We don't need a couple of alpha males blustering at one another over this stuff.
130
They ought to just cool it and take a little reputational hit and get the feathers.
131
But we ought to worry about the people that don't fit into the system.
132
We want the system.
133
And a lot of people are getting left further and further behind because as capitalism gets more advanced,
134
it gets more specialized, and there actually is greater difference between the haves and the have-nots.
135
And the haves can take care of the have-nots.
136
Interesting is both parties basically agree on that.
137
They just...
138
Yeah, so how you get there, that gets complicated income tax credit can make a huge jump in that direction.
139
I mean, Social Security, well, we've done various things.
140
Over the years, we have improved.
141
We've improved the public school systems.
142
We've improved things that do give people more of an equal chance and take care of people who fall by the wayside.
143
We just got to keep doing it.
144
Thank you.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
