that was bizarre

That’s the old (original) video. The sequel kicked things up a notch.

Same economists, same beliefs, new mustaches. :slight_smile:

Ok dude somethings get the one name treatment, some dont. Nashville Tn is Nashville, Nashville IN is Nashville IN. When you use Hayek as one name, it better be Salma, partucluarly if it references stimulated.

It’s not often a sequel is better than the orig. :slight_smile:

Absolutely. The second video they made is filled with great stuff. Did you notice how Hayek got the last word in the rap battle, landed the knockout punch in the boxing match, and then the media labeled Keynes as the champion?
Point taken on the F.A. Hayek vs. Selma Hayek comment, but you have to admit that for a couple of economists making a rap video about monetary policy they did manage to attract some decent on screen talent as seen at the 5:22 mark. :slight_smile:

thank you

My first reaction to the thread title was to hope that Part 3 has come out. :frowning:

I thought both of the first two were very well done and very faithful to the gists of both economic worldviews. In terms of my Identifying the Driver thread, it’s essentially the battle of Hypothesis B vs. Hypothesis A.

I didn’t see Selma Hayek.
