I got my Economics Degree 40 years ago. I have studied Economics and Sociology my entire adult Life. I work for the DoD at an Aerospace Facility for the last 35 years. Every day as a drive to or from work I drive past a "Homeless Camp", what used to be called a "Hobo Jungle". Whenever a person who is low wage and lives Check to Check drives past this encampment they MUST think; "There, but for the Grace of God, go I". Almost 50 million Americans are just one or two paychecks away from homelessness. Keep the poor frightened and they will eat more shit, for less money than a confident Union Worker. From an Economist's point of view that is why the USA "killed" the Unions after about 1965. Keeping workers scared to death will make them work harder and eat more shit without a complaint to be heard...
Tanks you comment make clear to me was going on in terms of Imigracion and illegal immigration in USA. I live in Washington state and let me tell you things are crazy.

philipp king so you know! that global warming is a hoax? what's the hoax btw? is there no warming whatsoever? is there warming, but humans have no influence? global warming is too diffecult a topic. I'm sure so far all we have are estimates and guesses. from both sides!
That happened to me. My career as a rotoscope artist was outsourced to Vancouver and India and I was left with no work and qualified for nothing. I sent out a thousand resumes. Eventually I lost my condo and now work minimum wage jobs. There is not one person in America or on Earth that cares in the slightest if I am dead. This is my America -- nobody cares if you are dead.
What makes no sense to me is when they outsource to *youknowwho* , these workers are CRAP! Productivity goes down, IT projects and products get fucked up all over the place. The company starts producing rubbish software, but they don't even care. WTF?
Ever since I was a child I asked why we would be worried about our working rights here in the United States but not that of every country we work within. Capitalism was the answer I was given from teachers . When I brought up the fact that a company’s overhead was far less expensive because of horrible working conditions and unlivable wages . Yet the company passed on none of this to its consumers . The company never attempted to help the country it was milking . I was told I didn’t understand . My teachers and those I went to for advice couldn’t say America is evil . They couldn’t admit that the only people profiting from this atrocity were those that already owned everything. America is evil .

1:14 "We are an innovative society." This lust for innovation then only comes along as: "We don't know what we need or want anymore, but we certainly have to work. Let's invent stuff then so we eventually can work again." In the end it has been shown that since the emergence of integrated circuits new innovations aren't able to create more jobs than they eventually destroy or get shipped overseas. We have to cut ourselves from the dependence of working to create more profits for somebody. I mean why is it a rational thought that we can't spend money publicly for safe roads, bridges, railways, education, healthcare etc. but it is the greatest thing in the world to accumulate monetary wealth that in the end never get's resolved in consumption.
Our country was essentially started as a corporation, The Virginia Company. The focus of our citizens was always to get rich quick, rather than live the non-materialistic "good life." When our royalistic founders "rebelled" against the king, it was because (like Mitt Romney) they were old rich guys who didn't want to pay more taxes. They also wanted to be able to expand their businesses (farming, land speculation) out west. America has always been controlled by the moneyed elite.
I have dreamed of contacting him but I'm not worthy. I think he responds as well to posts on z magazine blogs. search z magazine chomsky and it is #1 result. Great to know he is humble enough to spend the time in his busy life to talk with ordinary people.
when the Soviet Union was in control of eastern europe it moved parts and resources around for manufacture, it was called a planned economy. when General Motors moves manufactured parts imported from china to mexico for construction then extra parts in say Detroit then sold in New York, thats called "free market" "free trade". He's mainly talking about outsourcing. Moving jobs abroad to places where wages are horribly low with terrible conditions = less costs= record profits for corporations
Global outsourcing gives Western based corporations a chance to shake-off domestic workers that had good benefits and wages, including good health and safety standards in their work places. Corporate access to a labor market bereft of good health and safety standards for their workers, including a living wage and pensions means the entrepreneurs and investors obscenely enrich themselves at a huge social cost at home and abroad.
Noam tells us what many of already know. I wish that he would tell us... in his opinion.. what needs to do to done to change the way things are. He is a very qualified educator. He is not an activist that we need to incite change.
Aristotle was an advocate of philosophers as rulers, which illustrates how old this idea is. Even so, and over the course of two millennia, well into modern times, there's a good reason why it's never come to fruition. Philosophers are dreamers rather than doers.
After US wrecked so many other countries economies it's time for China to have the ball now, no? I don't really care actually. China or US, both will exploit as much as they can because the engines of our capitalism that is how corporations have to act, they have to devour and consume as much possible from the people or another will do it instead. Humanity is the same, regardless of culture.
What I mean is that humanity has always been and will keep having a relationship of "slaver and slave". There will always be someone being manipulated or exploited and there always will be someone exploiting or manipulating. We see that all the time, we value the people who exploit on television, we vote for them on elections, they become leaders on companies. We hate being exploited, but there is a secret biological desire on humans to be the one with the scourge on hands, and not the slave. Our ancestors survived that way by natural selection. As a great example we can see how people value a lot more a person that shows fury and anger on politics than a person who thinks twice and is fair to all.
agriculture created civilization, civilization created control. All this is only 8 to 10,000 years ago. modern HUMANS were around 200,000 years with no evidence of slavery. You need to read a book or two about real history, not Business propaganda to justify exploitation. only ignorant people vote for people who abuse them. Im done.

Oh, I forgot to give a shout out to Marshal McLuhan. His philosophies are hard to grasp (cold and hot media, etc.) but once you do everything seems obvious. A must read even if you only read a compendium or mash-up of his work. The medium is the message, truly. Why they didn't teach us this stuff in school is obvious: we wouldn't take it. people in the US would threaten power structures that have an interest in us watching TV and eating doritos.
I don't believe if jobs don't outsource they die. Considering they only die if they lack profit through lack of consumerism. As of the totalitarianism w.in the work industry I never thought of it that way so give em props on that. I say though the con of outsourcing is that the market for private enterprise increases as we see in first world countries which usually require higher education whether vocational or academic which leads to increase of competition w.in higher edu. And the private sector. To the point that eventually a PHD isn't even good enough increasing underemployement a problem which is currently seen in the u.s. by increasing manufacturing sector through limiting outsourcing I believe would lead to a better balance, decreasing the necessity of higher education, decreasing competition in the private sector and creating a more diverse market for people of education level.
@3soccerstars I'm not so sure that I've seen him exaggerate a point, I just think that he puts extra emphasis on things that we usually skip over, or turn a blind eye to..so as to bring it into sharp focus.
I live around Amish, Mennonites, Brethren, Old Lutherans, Moravians and various other sects. We have cradle to grave care. Over 400 relatives within 30 miles. Everyone owns a business and everyone shops at each other's businesses. Guaranteed job, medical, support for life. I like Noam Chomsky but don't get where he comes from. What's his best book. Just want to understand how English America works. Sorry for my bad English we speak mixed German and English in our house. Some kids speak German till 8th grade.
I wonder if Dr. Chomsky would care to reflect now, in 2012, on his 2004 statements about how the social market economy innocuously integrated Portugal, Spain, and Greece into the larger European economy.
Chomsky always goes to the heart of the matter. I always have a little problem with words like "innovate", however. I am a simple mind in this respect, I guess, have secured jobs requiring basic muscle power and hands-on technical skill, with the occasional dip into the white collar pool. Here it is: Actually "producing" something that people need, that is a public good, is key. Jobs are a public good, I am inclined to think. But this basic truth runs against the grain of market advertising. And advertising is always about hustling a product or service that, by and large, is never particularly in demand, that may or may not exist. It is the art of the amusing lie. America leads, as it has always, in pushing the ad. Our media are a form of old-school "Adver-tainment". We promote candidates and elect our chief executive with its aid. We also utilize the remnants of a crude mechanism called operant conditioning, response-stimulus conditioning, for fashioning a convenient, compliant sort of "consumer" non-citizen, preferably with disposable income. So called R>S conditioning is America's single significant contribution to psychology, in fact. The "fear" and "desire" components become obvious: fears lead to desires, which lead to more fears (or the reverse). I used to play around with "making up" advertising as a child; it was fun, easy. It was a fixture in the environment. I have since written a great deal of fiction.
There is a video (can't remember the name sorry) where he says that someone smarter than him will have to come up with a good solution for the problems that he sees with society.
I am NOT "frightened" any more. Now, I am more pissed off about having my entire life pirated away from me before I even had a real chance to decide what I wanted for my life and being held there by the circumstances created by being misinformed as a mechanism of public "education", when I had no choice about any of it at that time. I was but a child. Others were deciding for me what information I would receive or not, no matter how much my future in life depended on having information withheld which did and does directly affect my decision making. No one can make good decisions if they do not have the information needed to make a better choice. No one can make a decision based on information they do not have.
Oh please do but don't attribute it to me. i read it on some clever image someone made so it might be hard searching for it. I use it ALL the time, love it because it NAILS the issue to the wall!
Out sourcing: corporations select workers from overseas and then once they are entrenched here, in the Us, they don't renew their work visas, because people do not matter to corporations, they are expendable, and the corporations work hand in hand with the politicians, who make the rules
In the world we live in they are different. If people are allowed to freely trade and cooperate with each other, some will prosper more than others creating what many perceive as inequality. To have 'equality' some one or some group of people will have to decide what is fair. I don't want anyone deciding what is fair for me. Freedom is protection from coercion from your fellow man. Everyone's rights should be protected equally. If that is your definition of equality then I agree with you.
He is right. The United States should now be called The United Corporations of America. We had such a great country - once. Even the Supreme Court got bought off :(

I live around Amish, Mennonites, Brethren, Old Lutherans, Moravians and various other sects. We have cradle to grave care. Over 400 relatives within 30 miles. Everyone owns a business and everyone shops at each other's businesses. Guaranteed job, medical, support for life. I like Noam Chomsky but don't get where he comes from. What's his best book. Just want to understand how English America works. Sorry for my bad English we speak mixed German and English in our house. Some kids speak German till 8th grade.
In the real world.
Chump did a great job tricking the fools
That, at least, I can agree with.
I wonder if Dr. Chomsky would care to reflect now, in 2012, on his 2004 statements about how the social market economy innocuously integrated Portugal, Spain, and Greece into the larger European economy.
The poor sh9uld be frightened out of existence
ughghgh this dude is so smart
Yes, his finger is on the pulse!
I'd like to see him debate George Will. It's not too late.
@sallymaggiespotty yes, that sounds very likely.
Anyone have the link for the op-ed? I would appreciate it very much.
His sarcasm is beautiful
Chomsky was a hero. No longer. His paradigm, originally important dissent, has become utterly and only destructive
Chomsky always goes to the heart of the matter.
I always have a little problem with words like "innovate", however.
I am a simple mind in this respect, I guess, have secured jobs requiring basic muscle power and hands-on technical skill, with the occasional dip into the white collar pool.
Here it is: Actually "producing" something that people need, that is a public good, is key. Jobs are a public good, I am inclined to think.
But this basic truth runs against the grain of market advertising. And advertising is always about hustling a product or service that, by and large, is never particularly in demand, that may or may not exist.
It is the art of the amusing lie.
America leads, as it has always, in pushing the ad. Our media are a form of old-school "Adver-tainment".
We promote candidates and elect our chief executive with its aid.
We also utilize the remnants of a crude mechanism called operant conditioning, response-stimulus conditioning, for fashioning a convenient, compliant sort of "consumer" non-citizen, preferably with disposable income.
So called R>S conditioning is America's single significant contribution to psychology, in fact.
The "fear" and "desire" components become obvious: fears lead to desires, which lead to more fears (or the reverse).
I used to play around with "making up" advertising as a child; it was fun, easy. It was a fixture in the environment.
I have since written a great deal of fiction.
"Like he actually reads current publications." *
It's actually a speaking technique taught in Dale Carnegie courses.
what the flying f
He reads new york times allot!
okay no problem
Beware: TROLLS !!
There is a video (can't remember the name sorry) where he says that someone smarter than him will have to come up with a good solution for the problems that he sees with society.
He's just described Boeing right there.
Complete respect for you sir!! Mercy, ana maria
I thought he was talking from a giant cup.
@koloneltuesday
Haha! Yes that would have helped immensely. Thanks for the clarification.
3:04 hell yeah
I am NOT "frightened" any more. Now, I am more pissed off about having my entire life pirated away from me before I even had a real chance to decide what I wanted for my life and being held there by the circumstances created by being misinformed as a mechanism of public "education", when I had no choice about any of it at that time. I was but a child. Others were deciding for me what information I would receive or not, no matter how much my future in life depended on having information withheld which did and does directly affect my decision making. No one can make good decisions if they do not have the information needed to make a better choice. No one can make a decision based on information they do not have.
Ok there, Adam Bong

0:24 "op ed" (opposite the editorial page)
"Noam Chomsky lecture at MIT February 15 2004 full video " hahaha and then the video was uploaded in 2010.. I would love to know how this came to be
A video was recorded and six years later this guy uploaded it independently. What's so hard to understand?
Jeremy Hunter You're right, I don't know what I was thinking lol
pinochska We all get blindsided now and again ;)
@sallymaggiespotty That sounds utterly ridiculous, where did you hear this?
Oh please do but don't attribute it to me. i read it on some clever image someone made so it might be hard searching for it. I use it ALL the time, love it because it NAILS the issue to the wall!
Out sourcing: corporations select workers from overseas and then once they are entrenched here, in the Us, they don't renew their work visas, because people do not matter to corporations, they are expendable, and the corporations work hand in hand with the politicians, who make the rules
Cool thumbnail
In the world we live in they are different. If people are allowed to freely trade and cooperate with each other, some will prosper more than others creating what many perceive as inequality. To have 'equality' some one or some group of people will have to decide what is fair. I don't want anyone deciding what is fair for me. Freedom is protection from coercion from your fellow man. Everyone's rights should be protected equally. If that is your definition of equality then I agree with you.
He is right. The United States should now be called The United Corporations of America. We had such a great country - once. Even the Supreme Court got bought off :(
@polymath7
