Samuel, Thanks for making this video and sharing it with us. You have done a really nice job of combining your beautiful footage of NYC with your interview with your grandfather. I like the idea of your turning toward him to get his perspective on this issue. You didn’t say it explicitly in class, but it seems to me that his views are shaped, not just by his professional experience as an economist, but also by not having grown up in a capitalist setting. I think that made his perspective especially interesting.
