YouTube’s given rise to more than its fare share of pro-bono talking heads, so it’s not often we watch any one “thought leader” video in full. But “The Command Economy,” an ad manifesto from Carlos Mandelbaum’s Carnival of Ideas, gave us pause. (He’s got these expressions that grab you! And we love that musical text-reader gimmick.)

It’s tasty bait, and we wanna find out where he’s taking us.
