Capitalism Hits Home: World Transformations Have Hit Our Homes Hard 

And the corporate press will not report these irrefutable facts.

Harriet and her husband are excellent teachers!

Excellent program

You are one intelligent Lady. Thankyou.

good stuff

👍👍👍,, excellent analysis....

Reagan's "trickle down" theory is compared to peeing in your pants? Wow! What a DRY sense of humor, Dr. Fraud! I'm going to quote you on this one. 😂

Dang spell check! Okay -- Harriet. I'll just call you Harriet. ❤

Next video: how would a socialistic economy work? And what would the viability / possibility of the following becoming law (i.e. a workable form of socialism): Implement the following reforms and use inspiration from the kibbutz and technocratic ideas along with replacing all taxation with a 3% tax on all economic transactions: - Contract all businesses in the cultivation, manufacturing, processing, distribution, and selling - Costs of the business are paid for via energy credits optionally exchanged for cash - Pay for the energy credits by using the revenue from the economic transaction tax - No profit for businesses except that the only profit shall be from donations distributed to the workers as the only form of pay except for the energy credits - The business manager shall have the same salary (as a business cost) equal to the average annual income of their workers - Community boards (elected by the workers, one board member for each industry) shall assist in managing the businesses in their city or town and shall appoint business managers for each business - Give out energy credits to people for a basic standard of living whereas the pay for the jobs shall be minimal and in addition to the energy credits (job pay shall be from the donations) - Automate as many jobs as possible - Energy credits may be exchanged for cash by businesses - The community boards shall appoint a person to be a state legislative member - The state legislature shall appoint the Governor - The Governor which then shall be in the US legislature (the US legislature shall be the House of Governors but eliminate the House of representatives) - The US legislature shall appoint a president for life (the president may appoint a prime minister for various things) 🙏🙏 Thank you I hope democracy at work sees this comment and have you a good day!

One thing tho. Please dont say "for the benefit of the USA", now the billionaires take everything. American workers are rapidly becoming poor🤬

The vast majority of the Native Americans died from smallpox not force of arms. This makes the US significantly different from Israel but that is not the only significant difference for sure.

Harriet, were I still in need of a therapist, you'd be my Number One choice!

A conquest/expansion can always help the slumping morale of a country's own oppressed/depressed population. Yes? 😀. And stave off societal breakdown? All the excitement of new territory/ riches/plans etc...... And if at home you have massive debt and can no longer afford traveling half way around the world to "manage and defend" your new turf...... Is it SOON that "they" look to the North?? (Why is this not discussed?? Or it just a given....??). 👃✌️🇨🇦

Yep, the French loss is documented nicely in the film "The Battle Of Algiers"

No one ever mentions that capitalism gives people PTSD. Erich Fromm eluded to capitalism/ mental illness authoritarianism and or capitalism. One must groom and prime their children to participate and conform to a capitalist economy. Especially middle class progressives who once rebelled participate in commodifying their children by sending them to universities and competing for slots in those schools. There’s little to no room for self expression, self exploration, time to relax and thrive. Why doesn’t Richard Wolff ever talk about this or yourself ? This is a highly abhorrent system. There’s no community to fall back on. Not to mention it encourages very toxic people like narcissists and sociopaths to show their true colors with no shame. Which makes any hope of community, family, extended family absolutely impossible..

Homeless encampments can be migrants from other states and countries. Not saying there aren’t domestic homeless people. But if the inequality is bad in the us, it’s certainly worse in the rest of the americas

❤❤❤🙏👏👏👏

Great listen & might i add you look beautiful doc

What about Canada ?

The US must improve their homeless situation country wide. It offends sensitive Chinese tourists who come to visit the great shopping strips of LA, & the beaches. They hate seeing the cardboard shanties of the homeless "stinking of weed" everywhere they go. Poor dears. Pity to need such tourists but such is life as we say in the great south lands. Pound sand indeed.

Went to dollywood. Paid 39.50 for two cheeseburgers two fries and two cokes

​@TennesseeJed "Nooga" is marching toward Smart City, 15 Minute City, Surveillance City status. I see no evidence beyond an authortarian state.

Ukraine is no different from standard colonial exploitation. You have to admit that because: 1. Ukraine broke away from Russia along with several other "colonies" long ago settled by Russia. That Russia influenced or even governed these other states does not make that less settler colonialism. Remember this was the Russian EMPIRE! Then it was The USSR. But it still was Russian settler colinialism just like the white Europeans colonialized the native populations of this country. Settler colonialism is wrong even when the people speak Russian after long Russian rule. 2. Ukraine recently had it's own government as a breakaway state. But Russia had a puppet in power there. The Country got rid of him and he fled for safety to Russia. Ukraine had an election and installed a new government. Ukraine was not interested in being a settler colony of Russia anymore. The new government did not follow Russian policy and was looking toward Europe which displeases Putin. Tough Nuggies! They are independent now and can decide to be whatever they want to be eithin their oen borders. even a tool of NATO. I understand Putin's distress but life is hard sometimes. Now, if you believe in the people deciding their own fate you have to honor the will of Ukraine to be free within their borders. If you believe, for instance, in the Palestinian's desire to have their own nation and their own autonomy you must extend that same logic to Ukraine. They want their own government and independence. Putin would have been happy to leave Ukraine alone as long as he could control the future, economics and politics of Ukraine. That did not happen so Putin UNILATERALLY TOOK CRIMEA. He invaded. He militarily usurped the land and government of Crimea. Nobody did much about that so Putin took Luhansk and Donetsk in a second bite of the apple. Russia really wanted all of Ukraine but the people fought Putin to a standstill. The colonists resisted. Sound familiar? 3. The United States absolutely financed most of the Ukranian effort for independence from Russia, but Europe also helped. For five minutes the world, everywhere condemned Putin. He UNILATERALLY INVADED A NEIGHBORING COUNTRY. His reason? There were Nazis in Ukraine. Really? Well I suppose so and I condemn that but they were not bothering Russia. In fact, there is a fascist faction in Russiam that Putin did not immediately round up and imprison. Instead he looked toward independent Ukraine. Putin is famous for imprisoning people who do not bend to his dictates. Don't deny it. Most of those he poisons or imprisons were objectors but not necessarily Nazis or fascists. They simply were bothering Putin's absolute authority. Being an authoritarian leader Putin can label anyone anything. Who will argue with his absolute authority except the accused? And still there were a whole lot of people who attended Navalny's funeral. It doesn't matter if you love or hate Navalny. A bunch of folks got arrested just for attending. That's so undemocratic! That's so Russian. That's so Putinesque! When I hear the current American left line that Russia is blameless and picked upon all I can do is to laugh. It concurrs with the MAGA right! Putin is smart, wiley and ruthless. I'm not buying your pro Russian propaganda. Putin's elections are uncontested because anyone who seriously does not support him and is an effective leader opposing him is labled a traitor or something else and gets poisoned and/or imprisoned. This authoritarian leader tried to influence our last Presidential Election. He's been pretty successful in turning the Republican Party into a tool of his regime. I wasn't happy with the old style Republican policies but I'm horrified by the new subservience of Trump and his MAGA maniacs to Putin. These new Republicans don't think Democracy is a good idea. I cannot forgive Putin for his interference and he may well do it again. Beware! Frankly, I want to be a Professor Wolff and Dr Fraud accolyte. I like socialism. But I like any kind of system tempered with democracy. When my propaganda meter starts to go off I have to wonder why this sudden barrage of Pro Russian and Pro Chinese propaganda is coming from avowed Marxists ? I think there is much to learn from Marx and certainly Capitalism is a losing plan for working people. But both Russia and China are now mostly capitalist countries. So, it's nolonger a contest between socialism and capitalism that motivates this slanted discussion about Ukraine which has a history of being a settled colony that broke away from its imperialist ruler. What's behind this odd alliance of the left and the most extreme right in regard to Russia?

If your feed up and angry. RFK Jr is i believe our last hope. Please liok into him. We need to stop the monetization of everything and everyone. Power to the People!!!!!

Russia hasn’t prospered lol.

Why do you think there has been such a massive influx of Russians and Cinese trying to get to the US through Mexico?

Right MRS WOLLF, now we have "colonialism with Chinese characteristics" because they just do stuff for FREE!!!! Tough to get a regular gig with that non-profit model, huh?

God always have the upper hand compare to humans, God is the creator and the keeper of the rules of the universe, the Heaven’s rule! That is if they really believe in God. The number one rule is live and let live, and look what happened and is happening in the world today with the collective West being what they are! Dr. Harriet, bless your heart ❤

How has your home been effected, Harriet? It appears to be quite nicer than most... How has Dick- I mean, Richard's home been effected?

Good lord this lady is a hater.

We can interpret history and recent events in various ways, but let me just ask, what did Ukrainian people did wrong, that they deserve ongoing war crimes committed by Russia? Doesn't it matter what people actually want? They wanted independence, but Russia doesn't care and they invaded them anyway. Independence for me means that people decide, so if some candidate wins in fair elections, then it's fine by me. In case that you imply that USA influenced results of elections or that elections were unfair, provide some solid evidence, because for me it currently sounds just like conspiracy theory similar to those created by far-right. Russia is not weak country, but this channel tries to show West as inept set of countries that can't tie their own shoes. Initially no one believed that Ukraine will hold, but here we are, listening to Macron talking about NATO military intervention in Ukraine. I support Ukraine and we should make sure that Russia loses this war and gains nothing. They already lost a lot, they may be able to keep that war going on for few more years, but they won't win it. Russians are bad guys in this conflict and we should consider what is the best choice for everyone. I don't buy naive propaganda about Russia "just defending itself", because you have to not know history to actually believe it.
