This is interesting. The "labour theory of value" is similar to the "natural rate of interest" though.
Ackman isn't a frequently quoted person on MNE, but as TPP is being contemplated, it worth reading the gems he produced last friday about the company Valeant and big pharma more generally. They make Enron's accounting scandal seem like a birthday party. Pharma has been a solid Obama supporter so they are unlikely to suffer any serious harm from this bout of honesty but Hillary was swift boated by Pharma so she might use them as a Keystone pipeline or old fashioned Trust Buster issue after she is elected.
