"Let's say you're a socialist, by which I mean--" and then he uses a definition that is not socialism. He does this twice and uses a different definition both times. I don't know if he's just doing this to appeal to the audience, though.

Anyways, interesting relevant fact: Japan's real GDP growth rate is much lower than the U.S. like he said, but their real GDP per capita growth rate is about the same.

Also, probably a dumb thought, but I always just assumed that Japan's low growth rate had more to do with overpopulation than anything else.
