In this episode of | In this episode of The Portal, [[Eric Weinstein|Eric]] checks in with his friend [[Andrew Yang]] to discuss the meteoric rise of his candidacy, one that represents an insurgency against a complacent political process that the media establishment doggedly tries to maintain. Andrew updates Eric on the state of his campaign and the status of the ideas the two had discussed as its foundation when it began. Eric presents Andrew with his new economic paradigm: moving from an "''is a'' [worker]" economy to a "''has a'' [worker]" economy. The two also discuss neurodiverse families as a neglected voting block, the still-strong but squelched-by-the-scientific-establishment STEM community in the US, and the need to talk fearlessly—and as a xenophile—about immigration as a wealth transfer gimmick. | ||
