It’s important we don’t forget what happened. Politicians destroyed jobs and increased costs. They made bad things worse with arbitrary rules, and on top of that, government probably killed people with its endless red tape. Let’s remember politicians’ incompetence and their insatiable wish to gain power over us. Let’s never give them power like that again.

It’s saving us!” says author Johan Norberg. He explains why growth is essential to human progress, especially for poor people. “In poor countries, if you manage to grow by 4% annually over 20 years,” he points out, “that reduces poverty in that country on average by 80%. But DEgrowth activists insist that growth means “climate chaos.” They say a smaller economy would be “sweeter.” They say “We must urgently dismantle capitalism!” It’s destructive nonsense. This video explains why.

California promises to get 50% of their electricity from renewable sources. Now they deal with blackouts, rationing, and prices that increased 3x faster than in the rest of the US.

They’re right, but that doesn’t mean we should fear it. ———— To get our new weekly video from Stossel TV, sign up here: https://www.johnstossel.com/#subscribe ———— The Teamsters are protesting self-driving cars, asking government for more regulation, hoping to stop AI vehicles from taking delivery, taxi-driver and truck-driver jobs. That’s a fight that they can’t win. Loom weavers, typists, telephone operators, bank tellers, and many other jobs were destroyed because of new technology. It won’t stop happening, and AI will make it happen faster. But as people lose jobs, remember that so far, this creative destruction has led to people finding new, better jobs. Unemployment has been dropping, and wages keep going up! If history is any indication, AI will be a good thing. https://youtu.be/RIlnvrMa4GE?si=SqKEVPlqBEKVKOAJ Milei Takes Charge: Argentina’s President Fights Socialism with Free Market Reforms John Stossel 932K subscribers Subscribed 33K Share 625,409 views Jan 30, 2024 Argentina’s new president, Javier Milei, understands that the government cannot create wealth. ———— To get our new weekly video from Stossel TV, sign up here: https://www.johnstossel.com/#subscribe ———— That’s why Milei campaigned with a chainsaw, saying he would cut the size and power of government. In the United States, attempts to shrink government haven’t gone far, but in Argentina, Milei won by a massive 3 million votes. In just the first month of his presidency, Milei repealed rent and price controls and eliminated trade restrictions. Daniel Di Martino, founder of www.dissidentproject.org, who escaped Venezuela and became an economist in America, says it’s impressive that Milei won by promising massive cuts. The video above covers a little of what Milei has rapidly accomplished.
