Comments by "Daniel Larson" (@daniellarson3068) on "Rebuild Ukraine: Blueprint for Post-Conflict Economic Development" video.
Good Video - I do take some issue with this. People who own small businesses are working in their own interests and have to be working in the interests of their customers just to survive. Just the same, there are some things that big business can do better. The economy of scale is a real thing and some of those benefits do usually get passed to the end consumer. Some things are better handled by government like maybe water sewer, electricity and health care. Hopefully, this horrible war will be resolved soon and Ukraine can be free of its evil neighbor. Konstantin of Inside Russia explained the system that Russia has. All tax monies flow into Moscow and are then redistributed to the various government entities. When I heard that I thought - this is not conducive to a real democracy. If the money is centrally controlled from Moscow, it has a remarkable similarity to the planned economies of the old Soviet Union. This video stressed that small businesses will be needed in Ukraine. I think local government with autonomy will also be necessary.
