How Billionaires Control You? - Barrys Economics

I’m Barry Ferns – a comedian whose personal journey through failure, homelessness, and rebuilding led me to explore the socio and behavioural economics of inequality.

This channel digs into how systems of power shape our identity, behaviour, and beliefs, and how we can shift the stories we tell ourselves and each other about poverty, inequality, and who’s to blame.

📝 About this video:
In this video, I discuss the idea of authority bias and how it affects the way we see billionaires in society.
