    Say what you will about modern capitalism, but it's done more to bring peace and prosperity to the great mass of people than anything else.
    He was analyzing Capitalism and its historical record. Nazism was Capitalist as well. He wasn't saying one was better than the other at killing people.

    The point the man was making was that the current version of Capitalism has NOT brought peace and prosperity because of the economic system we use. He gave the examples of carnage from 1770s onwards.

    His solution is turn to land and its resources and concentrate internally not look over the seas.

    You never watched it. Try harder. It dispelles the jumble bouncing around your head.

    I alerted people to the lecture - which he points out, we have all the points accumulating for a world war. Look. Don't take my word for it.
