There is a great discussion here about the economic future of the West. It is so refreshing to see a discussion between intelligent people without any of the idiotic playing to the crowd and rancour we get on Question Time.

The two main things I got from this discussion were that most people are going to a have a much lower standard of living in a few years time and it would pay to start some sort of mutual help exclusive group like the Amish and or Irish travellers.

The whole discussion is two and a half hours long so if you just want a quick taster then I would suggest watching the following clips :

Why the real wages of the working class are going down (4 minutes from about 28:00)

Difference money wealth and real wealth (13 minutes from about 1:01:00)
