Hoping to read more of his thoughts on how to actually solve the problem, instead the authors were just using a Mamdani interview quote to plug their podcast: gonna do 45 episodes per year with whoever we can find to join the debate.

Ugh, do I have to do everything myself? Honey, watch the kids, I'm gonna go build a strong middle class in the 'global south'.

Here's how Americans "solve" it: stop destabilizing Latin America, take climate change seriously, and otherwise mind your own business and let them figure their own shit out.
