In sum, Vance makes it crystal clear that they will seek neither knowledge nor advice. Ignorance will rule, on all policies, including (but not limited to) "weird science" such as climate change. Read the full script here: www.cbsnews.com/news/full-vp...

Vance continued: "they have PhDs, but they don't have common sense and they don't have wisdom"

3) About seeking advice, Vance said: "you say trust the experts, but those same experts for 40 years said that if we shipped our manufacturing base off to China, we'd get cheaper goods. They lied about that And we're not going to stop it by listening to experts..."

2) F.ex., he said: "This idea that carbon emissions drives all the climate change. Well, let's just say that's true, just for the sake of argument, so we're not arguing about weird science... produce as much energy as possible in the US of America because we're the cleanest..."

1) Vance is a very good debater and he makes certain statements sound reasonable even if they are crazy.

Personally, Victor was one of the first who encouraged me to write down the ideas in my “Buy Coal” paper. Those ideas were too simple, I thought at first, but it’s now a signature piece for me. Thanks, Victor.

Internationally, Norman might be most famous for his masterpiece on the Theory of International Trade, jointly written with Dixit. The textbook has been taught from over decades, and is still often used.

With a PhD from MIT, Victor could have landed a job almost anywhere. He chose to be at NHH his entire career, where he was a super-popular lecturer. He was brilliant in disseminating research and a famous columnist in Norway’s best newspapers over decades.
