Hayek Vs Keynes hiphop battle

Now THIS I found interesting. Scott Sumner stating, “I’m starting to understand why Austrians think the boom is the real problem. I guess slow students like me absorb ideas better through music.”

Heh, I actually saw this in the Boston Globe on Sunday!

Need to get other language subtitles on that bad boy. I want this to be BIG in Japan, which is at a critical point in its history and is completely dominated by Keynesian thought.

EDIT: A Japanese subtitled version already exists! And Chinese, too, but it doesn’t seem to work yet.

“…it’s your theory that’s dead” is given as 君の理論は死んでいる but I think it should be 死んでいるのは君の理論, otherwise it just sounds like、 “In the long run your theory is dead.” Way too bland. (The famous Keynes quote “In the long run we are all dead” is usually rendered in Japanese as 長期的には我々はみな死んでいる。)

icelandic would be good too.

No, it does work.
