Now to take a closer look at this new breed of c. E. O. s disrupting the space is that correct our currency analyst bence one. Give our viewers who havent been talking at this corporate car crash of a sense of we work and what this unsettled board of investors that they read on the profile that they successfully pushed to remove the supposedly visionary c. E. O. In terms of his personal quirks but also his business irregularity is such as a selling the word we need to the company for 6000000. 00. So yeah i think thats thats really what it comes down to look every one of these c. E. O. s whos running the kind of new Age Companies if you want to call we work a tech Company Really is that its every list. Company but you know i think we need every you look at these c. E. O. s and theyre young and their Visionary People dont have too much of a problem with that they are some strange characters and we can talk about that in a few minutes but i think the thing that really did adam newman is the fact that quite candidly the fact that he created essentially an l. L. C. Which is what we company was as an Umbrella Company and then he licensed to we were the right to use the word we for 6000000. 00 as you just said i mean that kind of business practice it works when youre not an i. P. O. You can do that stuff because you can get around tax law and theres ways to to make money off of that but when you decide you want to enter the realm of an i. P. O. And have an initial Public Offering you want to open up your books to everyone else when the rest of the world looks at it they seem like a big scam or oh youre shifting money from over here to over here youre personally benefiting from it and why would i as an investor one of put my money into that kind of a system so i think that ultimately is what did it meant and bend the comparison that cries out here is perhaps Travis Kalanick of goober who were obviously in there they made it there but not without major drama what are the parallels between this we were case in case and what does this apparent repeat of this cycle suggest about the cutting edge accomplice culture in 2019. Well i think theres some big differences between what happened with travis and whats happening with adam and largely because again look travis was also a very visionary person theres no question about it he still is and since hes left it where he has started up a venture fund where hes still investing in 2 Big Idea Companies he says profits and for profit and Nonprofit Companies but again the difference here is you had in travis kind of this reputation of being a bro right he had this reputation of somebody who was very kind of loose with the way he talked to people the Sexual Harassment within his company was that he was going to create an Escort Services on the company dime so you have all these these personal issues that he was dealing with during the i. P. O. What i think thats why the i. P. O. Ultimately was successful because one persons personal issues is one thing but is the companys solid is it able to survive thats why you brought it obviously it is a Solid Company we work is not necessarily a Solid Company because as we open up those books at newman aside if you take a look at what we work is doing theyre not making money the easy almost appears as if they have an unsustainable Business Model in terms of of the amount of money theyre paying in rent the fact that for every dollar theyre bringing in theyre losing 2. 00 and so a lot of investors also looked at that and said well we dont really have a lot of confidence that necessarily the companys going to survive because if we had a recession already on the hook for long term leases that we cant turn around and sell for short term so thats i think the concern there so its different in terms of that but in terms of adam and travis you have 2 characters and they really are characters who are extremely eccentric in very different ways and whether or not the public can trust them or not i think it comes down to investors say i dont want to trust that guy with my money kind of style got booted before they even when i pm been invited to r. T. So we also have to manage in. Before we go perhaps archetype of this corporate character. And he famously made up a farm south of the f. C. C. With a suspected pot related tweet about a possible i. P. O. And then unsettled investors by smoking marijuana on camera in a podcast and so this isnt exactly a boys club lets also mention elizabeth homes and her fantastic claims up blood test so it seems that there is a link between these fantastical business aspirations sending humans to mars or revolutionizing medicines with a blood test so what are all these people what do you think of the behavior of all of these eccentric. Characters well look i. Think when it comes to if you are a person who is so visionary that you can look at the world as it is and you can see Something Different it takes a visionary person to be able to do that you love must no question is that person no question that that travis was that person as well because hoover was looking at the world and say theres a different better way to do this and he was right about that steve jobs is one of those people visionary person who looked at the world and saw a different way doesnt mean theyre all good people it doesnt mean that you necessarily want to have a personal relationship with them but theyre brilliant people and the line between being a genius and being insane is pretty thin but i think whats important for people to remember here is that just because someone is a visionary and has great vision does not necessarily mean that theyre able to run a successful business and thats what were seeing with a lot of these inflated i. P. O. s is that its a great idea and it does well but maybe the person who has that visionary idea is not the same one to carry it through you know the line between genius and insanity worry you find it bends one investigative journalist and cryptocurrency analyst thanks so much for in. Time for a quick break but hang here because while we were tearing fresh off of an ongoing legal battle over Libra Facebook is back in the hot seat courtesy of the audio file their plans for antitrust Legislation International regulatory edwards is on hand to give us a legal view on what could be in store for a tech giant. As we go to break here are the numbers at the close. 70 years ago this week china started down the path of communist rule over the past few decades china has emerged or rather really emerged as a leading world power rivaling the us the communist party can rightly claim a string of stunning successes but challenges remain whats next for chinas extraordinary revolution.

Regulators policymakers and owners all continue to mobilize in the quickly developing fight over how to regulate the compelling contemporary tech based economic sectors and facebook is once again the face of this big tech big tech in this fight now a leak of 2 hours of audio from an internal corporate meeting at the dominant social media site is allowing the rear view of the c. E. O. And founder Mark Zuckerberg views and plans on how to push back on moves to curb his corporations economic and interrelated political power at the center of the odd link to audio published by popular tech news site the verge it is mr zucker briggs response to proposals from president ial candidate and senator warner Elizabeth Warren to break up big tech like it was the war in iraq for the right answer some is of no use allotted for this and i wish it will have a legal challenge and i would that we will well. Do it. So basically. This is a. Made up. Of a major city. Or a government official. You know i would if they care about that want to work with our government and you could say that. But it is the death. Of a guy. And here to give us his expert perspective on this and so many other big regulatory issues affecting the Global Economy were glad to welcome back International Regulatory attorney miles outwards now miles Mr Zuckerberg frames the idea of breaking up Big Tech Companies here in this section of the recording as sort of the push to regulate as a force opposite to what he calls the rule of law i. E. Facebook continuing to do whatever it wants to do whats your take on his basic framing of the regulatory and Public Interest issues here. Well i think in some ways hes absolutely correct because at least in the United States theres really only a few mechanisms in place in which you could break up an entity like facebook ive spoken before on the show about is it a monopoly and so they would have to prove that they were extraordinarily competitive in their nature they colluded with others and they basically shut out all other social media type platforms its absolutely surprising to me that at least here in the United States an entity as large as facebook is really not under any regulations at all and even though mr zucker burge has been in front of congress on more than one occasion we dont have a cohesive way to regulate and many of the proposed legislation in congress has never really gotten that far to do it so i think that if you were to ask me that dynamic and the favor is absolutely for facebook and against war in the United States some mysteries that of right size and of media regarding for war and the rest of our plans that and. So you got to like a president that i would bet that we would have a legal challenge and i bet that we will win so you would bet would you bet against facebook and thats an area. Well i think i would bet for facebook because ive never seen warrens plan for life after facebook and so theres really only 2 options warren has one is to create this Regulatory Environment where they are going to be regulated like any other type of. Entity out there here in the United States or 2 like we saw in their early 1980 s. Like with a t. And t. And bell is to break it up and so both scenarios face a lot of challenges i hear a lot of rhetoric from senator warren but im not seeing a cohesive plan that would be regulated or legislated or maybe even decouple the advertising component from the social media and component so i guess im at a loss d because i havent seen anything propose that i would be that i would consider to be viable and interesting and also checking in on one of the biggest recent regulatory scandals in the u. S. There is the abuse and addiction Opioid Crisis here in the United States the Inspector General the internal watchdog at the Drug Enforcement administration has sanctioned or has criticized the dea for allowing the limit on opioid production to rise to meet the dramatically growing demand after x.
