    Interesting interview with author and Greek economist Yanis Varoufaki who recently published his new book titled: Technofeudalism: What Killed Capitalism.

      He didn’t explain the concept at all in all those paragraphs.

      All he really said was “Zuckerberg and Musk are powerful”

      Thank you for your attention to this matter.

        The reason that the tech companies like Facebook, Amazon, Tesla exist is because of capitalism.

        Jeff Bezos said at a recent Amazon town hall, "I would be surprised if Amazon was still around in 100 years." (maybe not his exact words, but something like that).

        In a place like the US, as long as there is freedom of "innovation", I think we will be okay.

          It was more about him than his ideas, which I sincerely hope are better fleshed out in his book
