I disagree. The origin of the struggles of people are two: 1. Institutions violating the law. 2. Interests allow people to get rich without hard work. Make money without producing anything. Imagine you are rich, very rich. You have 2 options. 1. Invest in creating a factory. Manufacture is difficult and many things can go wrong when producing, distributing or selling. You will be very busy. 2. Put money in the bank and make money with interests. Sit and wait.

5/19/2024 I went to Zhangjiajie with my children in 2016, and I was amazed at China's progress. Curiosity led me to study the Belt and Road Initiative, China's annual review and planning assessment meeting, and some of China's five-year plans. Then I said to the children that China will be the leading force for a better future for the world. Today, I am very happy to hear a person with a high social status but no Chinese cultural background say what I see and believe. I hope more and more people can see what you see, and give up their arrogance and prejudice, and work together to build a peaceful and harmonious global village❗️🙏
As a working class guy who is pro-union, I agree 100% with you Professor Wolff, but I want an honest Union. I was in unions that sold out its workers by not standing with its workers. Unions need to make sure they support the rank and file.
without being specific ... unions were infiltrated by the FBI and the Mob, syndicalists, thugs and assassins...you’d have to go back to 1965 for the start of the death of unions...the biggest and the last bastion of collective bargaining left in the US economy is UPS, a union in negotiations with private equity investors and Wall Street who want wages reduced, cuts in pensions, and payroll cuts,---compensating for the loss of employees, they want technology in the workplace that speeds up the work and increases the output of the workers. UPS makes up 13% of US GDP, that’s a lot. It stands to add more from fewer workers. There aren’t any Mobs, and Moles infiltrating the unions today and there are no socialists and anarchists in their ranks, what there is, is a class struggle between labor and capital.
The policies that brought us here were made by those running for office who were either dependent on 'donations' from those who have too much, or were in the ranks of those having too much. We are being 'ruled' by those who worship the golden calf.
Unions are a business model. They charge a fee and every 3 months they find an excuse to organize a protest, using a small amount for banners, and labor to make banners and attendance of protest is free. A very profitable business model.
@@josepablolunasanchez1283 More profitable than the Union model for business is the capitalist model for business. Profits, profits and more profits. Expansion, domination, control, of all the little workers and little countries where the little workers come from, work, work, work, than die. BIG PROFITS.
Thank you Professor Wolf. Forming a union is hard it’s an uphill battle. On the other hand keeping the traitors out of the movement is battle which is the hardest to fight. Don’t forget the power of the democratic presidents and the prime ministers. The memories of Reagan, Thatcher and Mulroney are fresh in the minds of the workers. All three demolished the union structure with stroke of the pen. Organized labour should be strong enough to tell these people where to go. And then they (The capitalists) has a sweet poison (an olive branch) to win back the labour movement with little raises so that the movements don’t become Violent (Revolution) Don’t take the olive branch. Be united and Fight them back.
Organized labor...struggling toward eventual unemployment. It's a good thing that Wolff never bores you with the "details". Has the Professor ever made a comment regarding the "just in time" supply chains? Was it positive or negative?
As one who lives in the Bible Belt,I appreciate Mr Sexton's discussing his roots in the Evangelical Movement.I know several fellow Kentuckians who have similar stories.As Dr Wolff often says,"life is about contradictions."
During US ears vs. Central America 1970s 80s, reports said that U.S. left evangelicals strongly denounced what they claimed was US rightwing evangelicals turned over Salvadoran non or anti the pro US gov. army to be killed, which they denied.
Very encouraging THEY/WE the working class are getting back their/our power BUT the need for an Economic system WE/THEY control and owned by public society is still paramount.
Just make institutions to enforce existing laws. Today institutions are violating law. Examples? First amendment in social media since forever with censorship. Trump had 8th amendment violated.
Trying to explain that increasing prices are the result of conscious decisions by the owners. Seems simple to me but there are many who perform amazing mental feats to avoid admitting this simple calculation.
Was Standard Oil a monopoly? Did they raise prices because they could? Given your claim, the answer should be obvious if it was true. So your answer is?
About pay for academic workers, when I was in the 6th grade, I was part of a summer-long enrichment program at a public university. This was around 1987-88. I remember seeing several Porches, Ferraris, Mercedes Benz, and even a Lamborghini parked all over campus. As kids, we never got tired of seeing them, and we gleefully wished we could own one someday. But when I became enrolled there as a student in 1994, these cars were almost completely absent from the campus landscape. Years later following budget cuts and other austerity measures, I put two-and-two together, and now understand why there were no more fancy cars around anymore.
Jimi Hendrix once said "everything in life is a gimmick, something to get your money". We are so manipulated that the majority accepts it, thinking this is normal. Glad we have people such as Richard Wolff who show us what's really going on. A hearty thank you for your insights.

I agree we need a party that represents the working class and society.... So why not take over both the Democratic and Republican parties?

Honestly I’ll take Americas growth over the recession we have. And our inflation is worse too because the USD that is the main currency in the world is almost twice as expensive as it was a decade ago which means everything imported is more expensive which is most things in a small country with a small currency.

Most rich people stay rich by spending like the poor and investing without stopping then most poor people stay poor by spending like the rich yet not investing like the rich but impressing them
Exactly! My grandparents were so frugal but they had a TON of money on both sides. I remember my grandfather telling me "you want to make money while you sleep." And I guess that attitude passed down to my dad (RIP), because I remember going to his house one day and I had bought something I really liked, so I wanted to show it to him. So I said "Look at this! Isn't it cute? It was on sale...I saved 50%!" My dad replied "Well, if you're spending, you're not saving." Obviously I had no retort, and that has always stuck with me.
Saving and investing wisely while prioritizing necessities and a few small luxuries in relation to one's total assets is a great approach. It helps ensure financial stability and I my for the enjoyment of life's little pleasures without compromising long-term financial goals. It's all about finding a balance that works for you!

I am asking, cause this chat is chatter. I am a smart man, have taken billy clubs, what shall we do? And do not dare tell me to vote. I remember.
I think that the point was to get organized with unions and the social parties that you align with. But honestly there aren't easy or clear action steps to achieve those things either. There's more information about this stuff online that Richard covers via debates, etc., but you may have to do a little digging.

But if y'all wanna talk shit while i work 10 hours a day, he calls you "Mr Wolfe, i call you "Richard." At this point, propose an alternative, what we do day zero, Khmer Rouge refrence intended, or it is all wind of garbage i heard all my life. What to do day one? I am asking, cause this chat is chatter. I am a smart man, have taken billy clubs, what shall we do? And do not dare tell me to vote. I remember.
Start a cooperative.
I think that the point was to get organized with unions and the social parties that you align with. But honestly there aren't easy or clear action steps to achieve those things either. There's more information about this stuff online that Richard covers via debates, etc., but you may have to do a little digging.
And to add on to what I said, what you want (action steps) wasn't the subject of the video

freedom first.

Bourgeois democracy is the rule of exploiters, the democracy of the minority. Socialist democracy is the power of the workers, the democracy of the majority.. But you personally can remain among the minority. In their insignificant illusions and fairy tales of garage billionaires.
