Dr Laurence Kotlikoff was on blogging heads TV episode of Glen Loury,a fellow economist and professor and Laurence often appears on Loury's blogging head TV podcast. Dr Laurence Kotlikoff is attempting something very difficult and this is to win the US presidency as a write in candidate as Dr Kotlikoff could not find any political party willing to take him on as a candidate. Dr Laurence Kotlikoff is not even qualified to be president of his Alma matter Boston University yet alone to be president of the United States and basically Glen challenged Dr Kotlikoff on why the hell anyone should waste a vote and write in his in this crucial election.
Glen Loury just thinks its stupid that this fellow professor is actually wasting time and trying to reach an audience that he should somehow be abetter alternative candidate and Dr Kotlikoff uses the same talking points most of these third party candidates have been saying in recent weeks. Somehow because in the primaries Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton garnered only 18 percent of all the votes doesn't mean the green party or a write-in candidacy of Laurence Kotlikoff would garner more than 000.1 %. Dr Kotlikoff gave some of his ridiculous notions as a private nationalized health care system. However soon to be president Kotlikoff did say we should stop all immigration from Muslim countries and that unskilled immigration has caused tremendous harm to Americans and needs to be halted. both men talked about the problems with the modern economy and how it worked to protect the racket of monopolists and this result has been to decline ability of people not on the inside to economically improve their situation Laurence also said the rich have avoided taxes for so long and their disregard for the nation and money stolen form workers needs to be punished hard and this will come through in forms of higher taxation for the plutocrats, many of which throw money at each other in unrealistic ventures and investment capitalization such as trying to colonize Mars which has about as much chance of being successful as a company working on turning the yellow from peoples teeth into gold. A great hour long interview with one of the premier professors and economists in the nation and you can listen to it athttp://bloggingheads.tv/videos/43818 and get an idea of another possible candidate to consider especially one being a left shark favorite as Dr K.
