The health of the population, economy and environment are highly interconnected and interdependent on one another. We are heading into a perfect storm as evidenced by the exponential growth in chronic illnesses and healthcare costs, overspending and fiscal imbalances and green house gas emissions and climate change. Unless we transition to a new form of capitalism, one that creates both economic and societal value, the death of our civilization is no longer a theoretical or academic possibility, it's the road we're on.
The root cause of our problems stems from greed, period. As Robert Kennedy once said, our GDP measures everything except that which makes life worthwhile - namely our health and our environment. The perfect storm is a convergence and collapse of the three systems - our health , economy and environment.
Ronald Weidner I would say our health is far more important in these 3 systems and all data incontrovertibly states that global health is increasing rapidly.
When this country falls, people will refuse to accept that it was capitalism the reason why this country fell and not corruption and gross negligence. Capitalism creates the grounds for the abuse of power and exploitation of the consumer and worker. What you're looking for a socialist system, sort of like a European nation-state.
Perhaps the general health in 1st world countries. But with the rapid degradation of the environment, that 'global health' will inevitably come crashing down.
Well people would buy a different brand. Call it whetever you want. It doesn't change anything... Chomsky addresses the strategy of anti-consumerism in response to someone's question after a conference. He doesn't believe much in it.
I think life support tech is underestimated and MAD overestimated. If i were to bet i'd say one out of every two people will die but it really is hard to say. If we could just end IP and create better scientific processes and norms for science within the scientific community and focus that on either reducing ecological destruction or improving our coping mechanisms then we have a chance and i think it's possible for something like this to be developed even amidst a capitalist and mostly non-democratic society but i think the chances are abysmal whereas they'd be good in a democracy
All these salty people typing away on their iPhones. Try something. Do something in attempt to solve the problems you see. Quit asking "what if it doesn't work?". Get with others and do anything more than pout about "impossibilities".
Ah, yes. The age-old (two years old, in fact) "You complain about systemic problems, yet you have an iPhone" argument. I guess if you can't complain about a system you've grown up in, and that has given you anything at all, that means Ayn Rand should just have shut up, and never written anything? I'd recommend you watch this clip of Chomsky talking about how all the parts the iPhone uses actually came to be: ruclips.net/video/a4ZIhW5ZpaE/видео.html
To lean on the usual system is of course more convenient and you will be less ridiculed by the elite. The small problem is that humankind is not able to change direction to avoid total destruction of the world as we know it and what can possible be more catastrophic?
An entrepreneur like steve jobs (or you) have access to basic tech founded by taxpayers (like himself) and take risks to make business. Looks like capitalism to me. Steve started out in a garage, and not as an evil corporation monoplyzing tax founded research.
Nice try, but re-phrasing it changes nothing. If the state sector plays a crucial role in markets, then you have _state capitalism_ which is exactly what Noam calls it. Edit: The garage story is a myth btw.
Pentagon does not develop microprocessors, memory or much of micro-electronic devices. DOD developed devices were significant 2 decades ago; not today.
A Brilliant man of our age; we are so lucky to have him.....
I think Dinner with NC could last a very long and fascinating time. What an incredible intellect.
I love him.

Perfect storm my tuckus. This is a catastrophic collision of human ignorance and abuse of power and technology.

This really ticks me off.
Thanks Chomsky
nice
Start with an extreme and work backwards---what if NONE of us bought "iPhones?"

How can dismantling the system be anything but catastrophic?
We`re heading towards catastrophe in the current one.
To lean on the usual system is of course more convenient and you will be less ridiculed by the elite. The small problem is that humankind is not able to change direction to avoid total destruction of the world as we know it and what can possible be more catastrophic?
So ammo up I guess?

CHUMPsky is A communist moron. Only Fools listen to HIS endless MARXIST REVISIONIST ECONOMICS BS

A switch to biotechnology?
That's because they became commercially viable. Listen up.
God and Jesus don't exist either, except in "Fairy Tale," books

A bunch of people talking. There is no solving real problems, just argue and disagree.
Were you born retarded, or did you practice for it?
Understanding the problem is the start to do something about it, Chomsky is also present in activism sooo.
Norm is going to break his arm trying to pat his self on the back.
Who's Norm?
Still a moron 5 years later lmao
