The $1.8 Trillion Tax You've Never Heard Of - Niall Ferguson & Lauren Lyster - June 20, 2013. Niall Ferguson, June 22, 2013, Video. "Ferguson tells The Daily Ticker (Yahoo! Finance) the problems he identifies with the economy are "much more institutional, much more structural -- and we can fix these things." "We can fix the problems with our public finances, actually, despite what you might hear in Congress," argues Ferguson. "We can fix the problem of crazy regulation. We can fix the problem of tort law. We can also fix a fundamental problem, which is our education system which is failing a lot of kids in America." Link verified August 21, 2014
