  • Dafür liebe ich diesen Podcast

    Ich habe mir heute erklären lassen, wie Staatsschulden enorm in die Existenz und das wirtschaftliche Wohlergehen von jedem von uns eingreifen. Und dass Staatsschulden das Leben der ärmeren Klasse mindestens genauso so unangenehm machen können wie eine strikte Austeritätsspolitik. In Deutschland kommen solide Staatsfinanzen immer nur als Projekt knauseriger Wirtschaftsbosse rüber. In dem Gespräch über teure US-Anleihen habe ich verstanden, dass dies auch ein Projekt der ärmeren Klassen sein soll... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Naomi Klein and Astra Taylor Say the End of the World is Now on the Table
Q: Just to start, Naomi, the most obvious question, what is End Times Fascism?
End Times Fascism is a form of fascism that engages with planetary crises and accelerates the collapse; it's not purely a right-wing political worldview but a coalition of powerful actors including religious end timers, tech billionaires, and ethno-nationalists who respond to apocalyptic risk in coordinated, sometimes contradictory ways.
Why Gas Prices Just Keep Going Up
Q: And how has that played out on the ground exactly? Vivian, just explain that to us.
Vivian explains that the conflict has caused flashpoints, notably the naval blockade and attacks on oil infrastructure, leading to disruptions in exports and greater price pressure globally.
The Bond Market Is Flipping Out. Here’s Why You Should Care.
Q: Why did the Treasury intervention not have a lasting effect on yields?
Because the market is so large that government interventions provide only temporary demand and cannot meaningfully move prices, and investors question the sustainability of debt dynamics rather than being swayed by short-term nudges.
The Bond Market Is Flipping Out. Here’s Why You Should Care.
Q: What exactly is a bond, and what is a yield?
A bond is essentially an IOU where you lend money to a government or a company and they pay you interest, with the yield being the interest rate you effectively earn based on the bond's price and terms.
The Bond Market Is Flipping Out. Here’s Why You Should Care.
Q: Ben, why should listeners care about the bond market?
Because bond yields determine borrowing costs across the whole economy, from mortgages to car loans to business financing, and the bond market reflects expectations about inflation and the government's fiscal health.
