Was so privileged to find this great man (source of truth) probably 15 years ago. You wouldn't find him unless you looked. Here in Australia if i walked the school, universities and streets and asked people what they thought of Noam Chomsky and his theories/opinions they wouldn't know who i was talking about. The ones who seem knowledgeable to a trained and controlled mind get the airtime. The individuals who are so revolutionary and honest in they're opinions are not advertised.
*“My quarrel with Chomsky goes back to the Balkan wars of the 1990s, where he more or less openly represented the "Serbian Socialist Party" (actually the national-socialist and expansionist dictatorship of Slobodan Milosevic) as the victim. Many of us are proud of having helped organize to prevent the slaughter and deportation of Europe's oldest and largest and most tolerant Muslim minority, in Bosnia-Herzegovina and in Kosovo. But at that time, when they were real, Chomsky wasn't apparently interested in Muslim grievances. He only became a voice for that when the Taliban and Al Qaeda needed to be represented in their turn as the victims of a "silent genocide" in Afghanistan. Let me put it like this, if a supposed scholar takes the Christian-Orthodox side when it is the aggressor, and then switches to taking the "Muslim" side when Muslims commit mass murder, I think that there is something very nasty going on. And yes, I don't think it is exaggerated to describe that nastiness as "anti-American" when the power that stops and punishes both aggressions is the United States.”* *― Christopher Hitchens*
god.. he sure as hell got this one right. and no, 'the rich gets richer and the poor gets poorer' is NOT a truism. Policies can, and have been implemented to forestall that. Theodore Roosevelt, Taft, FDR, hell, pretty well over half the time in the 20th century we had a decent policy that kept the rich honest and preserved our institutions. Starting with reagan, it all changed.
Make your head go screwing Louie with the bushes and brushes of Mark Twain in the rain you're our new hostess for the mostest you should be the new prayers for all those layers of shamite sandwiches
You mean the part where he said "continuing with a pattern of democratic presidents link up very closely with big corporations". Some things never change.
I love the Boeing example. Sitting here in late 2019 with Boeing's 737MAX aircraft grounded for months, a genuinely free-market company simply could not sustain those kinds of losses. It would have collapsed. But thanks to massive public spending on Pentagon contracts - of which Boeing is a titanic recipient - no one even talks about the _possibility_ of Boeing going bankrupt. In other words, their gamble on the rushed production of the 737 Max, not only cost hundreds of lives, but also demands a huge sacrifice from the US taxpayer in terms of both propping them up, but also in the tit-for-tat trade war with Airbus to protect them through the crisis. But hell. Spending public money on healthcare would be socialist, wrong, and increase dependence. Ok when it's a massive corporation though.

Wow, this was prescient from Chomsky. He always speaks so calmly and un-dynamically about such important and pressing issues and events it is difficult to take in the full ramifications of the topic at hand.
david miller Speaking calmly is better to deliver information and discuss events without letting emotional thoughts take over. It's pretty effective but not so easy to do depending on the topic and it's consequences.
Agreed, but it is possible to speak calmly and emphatically with inflection and passion to draw in the listener and communicate the urgency of a course of action. I've always found Chomsky to be a nearly comatose speaker.
david miller I believe he has those characteristics you describe. He is already saying that a matter is urgent and extremely important. I know that when a leader screams "freedom" through the top of his lungs we feel more compelled and motivated to do things, but that could be destructive. Emotional speech can drag us to unreasonable action, we would be subjected to the best rhetoric and not the most reasonable arguments, and that's dangerous. I'm not sure if you understood my point?
Don't get me wrong, I believe Chomsky is one of the most important intellectuals of our time. He consistently analyzes the effects the actions of the U.S. government, intelligence agencies, corporations, etc., have on the global scene; a necessary dissenting voice. I also agree with you about overly emotional speech being off-putting. I'm talking about passion and persuasion, not emotionalism. Maybe Chomsky's speaking method reads passionate to you, but it doesn't to me. He sounds more monotone and robotic than Lt. Commander Data. It's really too bad, as what he has to say is usually profound and important.
The first ten minutes is an absolutely depressing, but 100% accurate summary of where we are today and what has been happening over the past forty years.
Living in Costa Rica 4 years, from the age of 66, I taught ESL to class of 33 students. Their goal was to work for American companies in customer service to the U.S., from San Jose, their capitol. Those hired were paid $1500/month. I got $8/hr., common pay there at that time. I did everything in my power to help them get those jobs. For me, it was paying it forward and my reward was beautiful. It IS TRUE that 1 person CAN make a difference. 250,000,000 of us CAN effectively go up against mega business, govt, to take care of ourselves and Americans future, including putting money together by each kicking in very little. Today, 1 MILLION former office- bound workers are voting effectively with their feet by not returning to offices....and that simple step IS WORKING.
@10:10 the Q&A is pretty good. They totally rammed NAFTA past the unions and past the public eye in Congress. It was not meant to be heavily reviewed or scrutinized, it was meant to be vague to the public. NAFTA is responsible for gutting small town Mexico of small farming jobs by buying corn from large American producers- this left those small farming communities jobless and forced to work in exploitative corporate factories in North Mexico. Those who didn’t want to work in the factories got involved in the drug trade or migrated north across the border illegally. NAFTA hurt the working class of Mexico and the US and helped the corporations and wealthy on both sides of the border.
He commented that if not for Ross Perot we might not have heard of NAFTA at all. I remember the debates in 1992 and I think Chomsky was right about that. NAFTA was meant to pass without the public even knowing about it.
He's spent his entire life reading and learning. He is an eternal student and along with him being extremely conscious of history and the working people as round him, makes him an extremely wise and well versed intellectual
among all the great aspects to admire about the man, i love how chomsky shows immense respect to the "folks" who call in. he's a quintessential (small "d") democrat.
this video illustrates that nafta was much worse than a bad idea that ended up having poor results, nafta worked as intended and the consequences were understood.

The fact that people keep asking Noam sociological questions as if he were some kind of "weatherman" is telling. Things like "do you think higher education will become more democratic in the future" are a good example, among others. It seems to me, at least, that the institutional and academic drive to portray things like economics and politics as sciences is behind this trend. The exact opposite is true. They are definitely not sciences because the effects and observers are intimately linked. Like Yanis Varoufakis said, "the weather doesn't give a damn about your theories about it, but people do". That's why meteorology is a science and sociology isn't. Let us stop asking Noam to predict things.
I’m 39 and I wish I could be a body donor so if I die young Chomsky can transfer his brain to my body and have another 40 good years to go. Unless I was decapitated or burned to death 😂

By contrast, Chomsky has spent his entire career in academia. He NEVER served his country in any kind of Public Service Position! He NEVER created a single job! In fact, he has NEVER achieved anything outside the field of Linguistics, above and beyond merely complaining about others from the sidelines! Chomsky merely writing books/giving lectures, about how HE THINKS the world works, but without ANY real world experience in ANY of the areas that he comments on, is just as meaningless as a Politician who writes/lectures about what HE THINKS bad Syntax is!

The Liberal Socialist economic policies are the cause of depressed growth, they don't work, that's why they have tried to find ways around it. If businesses can't make enough money, the incentive to be in business is gone, so they downsize and outsource. They do this when taxes are too high, which slows economic growth. Both tax hikes and wage hikes diminish economic growth which means job loss and budget deficits, which is compounded by borrowing to make up public funds. Then it gets worse when business just completely leave the area. Liberal and Socialistic economic policies don't work. We could increase public funds by lowered real taxes and cutting pork barrel and unnecessary state and federal spending, then we would actually have the funds to pay for necessary public programs, through sustained economic development. Then only borrow money and send stimulus money in emergencies.
Laughable. Trump is a conman. The rebranded NAFTA - USMCA - is basically the same as before, just now with some TPP-style provisions thrown in (international business courts allowing corporations to sue governments for loss of expected profits, etc.). Meaning it is even worse, and that Trump didn't believe anything he talked about on the campaign trail (that goes for all of his populist rhetoric on tax-cuts for the working class, health care, and so on).
Lol, not really.. “Trade deal bad” is very different than having an understanding of why it’s bad and what to do about it. If we both like Citizen Kane, you because you appreciate the story, dialogue, acting, ground breaking cinematic elements and me because I think it’s an okay comedy and disagree with you on every point you make about it.. we don’t actually have a lot in common
2024: Noam Chomsky predictions about the USA and the concentration of Wealth are correct as always. In 1992, I made $6.00 per hour in the US and today in 2024, The Federal Minimum Wage is $7.25 per Hour and $7.25 per hour is also the Minimum Wage in about 15 US States. And as of 2017, there are No 'Statutory Holidays' in the USA. In 2024 Canada, most Provinces have at least 7 or 8 Statutory Holidays or more!
