Let me start by saying that I thought this interview was great, and highly encourage you to watch it in its entirety and share it with others.

I think a lot of "anti-capitalist" videos and discussions you see are geared towards the people who are already left leaning. But this interview discusses it from an economic perspective, and is communicated in such a clear and pragmatic way, while also being extremely charismatic and interesting to listen to.

I don't mean to upsell this video so much, but I just thoroughly enjoyed it and highly recommend it. If you are a very "pro-capitalist" person, id love to hear your genuine thoughts on the matter (not a debate or argument, just your genuine and well meaning thoughts - as I'm genuinely curious).

I’d be interested in your take of having workers being able to have a say in where tax money is actually spent

So we invented this cool system for that a few thousand years ago called "democracy" where people vote on the policies they want to see enacted in order to properly represent everyone as equals. If more people are participating in that then great news.
