On this week’s show, Prof. Wolff presents the following short updates: Inspire Brands buys Dunkin Donuts, as big firms grow while medium and small firms die; private US capitalism is now on "life-support" financial dependence on US gov't; and pre-Covid US eviction tsunami is now getting worse fast. No matter who wins, the capitalist system gets continued support, continued failure to end instability, continued erosion of New Deal, and continued denial of real political choice in the US.

Love this man. This country needs more people like Richard Wolff.

Thank you Mr. Wolff for all your work!!!!!! Wish I had some money printed out of thin air that is destroying the environment (Ecocide) to donate, but I don't. I've have learned a lot from your work on your channel, and you remind of this quote...

Jamie Dimon announced yesterday that he is excited about Biden's election. That says it all.

Hey good day. Thank you for another good show. You are very informative I am just about 65 years old, very skilled craftsmen was an honest contractor for 40 years, wish I had known half the things you've expressed. Thank you it's not all bright stuff but it's reality and it's good to know have a great day. Jim

Two Party System Is Trash. It Stifles The Imagination & Humility Of Man. Lowers Our Frequency & Vibration. Wow. We Are Truly Lost. Damn

Paid off my Visa with my Master Card then paid off my Master Card with my American Express which I paid off with my Visa.

Capitalism is in the personal relationships too. For example, I helped my neighbor fix his computer and he insist on paying me. It took me 30 minutes. I was happy to be a good neighbor. I asked my other neighbor to help me work on my car and he expected to be paid. LOL What ever happened to just lending a hand? Even my own niece asked what she has to pay me for changing the oil on her car. Pretty soon, we'll have to pay our mothers for giving us birth.

Don't forget that Biden has promised his core constituent, namely his rich donors, that, "Nothing will fundamentally change." Expect nothing new now that he's the president-elect!

"Diet Republicans" Best thing I have heard all week

@justthinking526 3 года назад

Refreshing to hear the unvarnished truth. We need a strong new populist party to elect from.

@SandhillCrane42 3 года назад

Thanks for telling it like it is Prof. Wolff. It's all about social control and worker insecurity. Insecurity leaves people open to exploitation.

@SonicG52 3 года назад

They're Diet-Republicans is the best way I've heard someone describe our current "Democratic" party lol.

I remember being surprised when I learned that my small business employer had to borrow money each month to make payroll! This was in the 80's.

Preach it, Dr Wolff!
