David L. Smith of the Geneva Business Insider blog joins us once again for our monthly conversation on economics, finance and politics. This month we start by talking about Smith’s new interview series, featuring his first guest, John Hancock, discussing the education industrial complex. We also discuss China’s changing role in global geopolitics as it becomes the world’s largest oil importer and prepares for an important party meeting that may plot the course of the Chinese economy for the coming decade.
