So Much Talent I Can't Keep Up With Them

I DON'T KNOW who Max from UNFTR is and never heard of him until this came up on the ol' Youtube sidebar this morning.   He's also one of the Meidas Touch's ever growing stable of commentators and,  as he seems to use a script instead of improvising,  he's one of the more effective ones I've heard.   His explanation of the political economics of the past about eighteen years is excellent, especially interesting to me because he squarely includes the Obama economic team's enrichment of the elites at the cost of the many as a part of why we are in such trouble now.   Tim Geithner and Larry Summers and others, including Rahm Emanuel helped the prep to Ivy Leaguer Obama do that instead of fulfilling the expectations of his massive vote for his first term.   It cost Democrats AND THE COUNTRY dearly that he chose those preppy asses to do things.  Oh, we plebs got a little from them but it was trickle down.   They were careful to save the bankers from their greed while enriching them even more.   I was never all that sold on Obama to start with and, though I voted for him in 2012,  I wasn't expecting him to be even very good, just far better than any Republican.   

Especially listen to what Max says about the direct stimulus that the middle class and even poor and destitute People got during Covid and how the corporate crooks couldn't stand that they had money that served them and decided en masse to gouge them through inflated prices using the supply chain disruption as a cover.  

I don't agree with every detail in the video though he tells far more of the truth about that than you're likely to find elsewhere.  

I'll be looking to click on more of his content when I see it,  unlike the lawyers, he doesn't bury his lede under rambling stream of consciousness,   the thing that drives me up the wall with Meidas and such other outfits who seem to do it as a conscious decision at Occupy Democrats - you generally have to skip the first three minutes or more to get to what they promise you they're talking about.   Why they do that I don't know.   I sometimes write that way because I'm writing.   People can skim or skip or go back and look at what I've said.   Writing for talk, especially talk with pictures is different.   Those guys should read something like Radio Deutsche Welle's Manual For Radio Journalists (available as a pdf online) or some other radio services' advice about that.  NOT that I expect most lawyers would have the humility to learn something new,  they might be even more successful if they tried something like using a script that GETS TO THE POINT.
