Historia
In Super Bowl XLIX, Seahawks coach Pete Carroll made one of the most controversial calls in football history: With 26 seconds remaining, and trailing by four at the Patriots' one-yard line, he called for a pass instead of a handing off to his star running back. The pass was intercepted, and the Seahawks lost. Critics called it the dumbest play in history. But was the call really that bad? Or did Carroll actually make a great move that was ruined by bad luck? Even the best decision doesn't yield the best outcome every time.

Great analogies! Will be re-listening to this in the future. Money is a great motivation for assessing risk!

Historia
In the 1950s manufacturing generated nearly 30 percent of US income. Over the past 55 years that share has gradually declined to less than 12 percent at the same time that real estate, finance, and Wall Street trading have grown. While manufacturing's share of the US economy shrinks, it expands in countries such as China and Germany that have a strong industrial policy.

Automation is not feasible to regulate, which the author does not even really touch on factories that are highly automated, and how that doesn't help employment. What the author basically describes is a form of universal basic income. Which is not thought out very well. If you subsidize a factory how can you prevent automation from being purchased instead of hiring more people? Are computers considered automation because all manufacturing requires them, but if you took away computer controlled machines we would have a massive increase in employees needed (and with it cost). Where do you draw this arbitrary and imaginary line? (background: I own and operate a machine shop)
