Thank you Richard Wolf for sponsoring such a screamingly brilliant woman on your show.. Not someone to watch. Someone to remember.. such brilliance is part of history!!
Despite what lies Conservatives like peddling a majority of Americans do believe in Socialist ideas like Medicare For All, Livable Wage, & know Billionaires are the ones pushing Austerity over progress.
Might be helpful if we get away from the notion that providing welfare, Health care and being ethical is somehow 'socialist'. While that narrative remains uncontested it'll always be under attack.
@@alexxx4434e need to attack their definition of socialism at its root and expose them for their ignorance. Once we can educate everyone listening about the idea of democracy in the workplace and nation and demonstrate how we have none, we can have much more power.
Keynesianism might seem close to austerity to YOU, but if you are a working class person, then you know they are very different. There’s a huge difference between free healthcare, free education, guaranteed housing, etc. and having no healthcare, no education and no home (even working class people who have jobs are homeless: 44% of US homeless people have jobs). Achieving these basic Keynesian reforms not only makes a huge difference to human happiness, but also gives working class people much more time & energy to focus on political participation, so we can build socialism.
Much gratitude... I watch some of your post numerous times because rote repetition is how I learn... at 62 I am learning more now than ever before. I love this planet!❤
You prevent austerity measures by having the basic necessities of existing in a society so much larger than we are designed for. You also remove resource ownership for the private sector. Oil companies should not be paid to steal our oil and hedge fund landlords shouldn't be able to own the land. We're never going to fix any of this considering the magnitude it all exists now and the response needed to prevent an entire global collapse.
Austerity capitalism like an organism sends a virus to modify its host.. like I suggest.. The answer is study as a virus studied. Where it attaches.. how it infects.. what proteins are involved. Activated immune system prevents its attachment.. inactivate it’s action.. eventually deactivate the virus.. austerity capitalism. Suggests there’s somethings society does acclimates the virus..
Activism without action is 'dead', just like 'faith without works' is dead. Most activism, like faith is dead. It's all show and no action. Like religion, activism will lose its appeal when nothing is done to improve the lives of ordinary people.
I quoted Clara Mattei to a capitalist "Austerity is used as a disciplinary tool for population under capitalism." Answer i got: I believe that what you call "capitalism" is what others call corporatism. Untidy intermingling between the state and corporations, which gives unclear responsibilities, and the possibility of great exercise of power. Any comments ?
I'm not going to agree with your comment, but I would say that she sounds very smart. It's good to have people who are smart and good communicators to effectively translate the economics for lay people like myself.
sometimes you might have to be militant about it, then you'd be criticized by the same people who have been militant defending austerity. 🤣 as you have witnessed before and will in the future, it's always the politico-economic militants in the government that get what they want for their masters
When all the rich and for profit companies leave with all their taxes paid you guys win!Elon Musk Joe Rogan both left California after they had enough Elon just tweets his tax at 50%plus 🚀
The Oligarchs will always move to increase their wealth. Most of them have gone to China and Taiwan. They have absolutely no loyalty to workers or a nation. When a robot can outperform a human on the lowest global wage, that low wage human will be thrown aside also. You are just a resource to them that is all. When they can find cheaper, you're dismissed. Markets and money love money and power, not humans.
Yet another qualifer that is already a key feature of capitalism, austerity. It's like trying to add "vulture" to capitalism, when all the implications of saying "vulture" capitalism already exist as a feature of capitalism
The capitalist class and their mercenaries are clearly our enemy. Yes, once and if the masses are educated our numbers can grow and that they do keep doing.
Professor Wolff, your going to Clara Mattei is counter productive. She uses words like "enemy". Her appearance is disheveled, twirling hair, shirt off center, hand over the face. She seems eccentric. Personally, I like eccentric, but it doesn't work on the front lines. More importantly, who paid for the research. Did she pay for the research or did her employer pay for the research. As much as I understand university goings-on, she likely applied for a grant. Was the grant money used to pay for the research. Again, who awarded the grant/s. Where did the grant money come from. The Establishment allows certain people to run around, doing their thing, kicking up dirt, inspiring others to do what is advocated. That sort of academic thing is business as usual. That sort of academic thing is strategy by The Establishment, for The Establishment. Where's the risk taking. When there's no risk, there's no glory. Does doing the impossible make us mighty?

militant.... denaturalize...???...foreclose on capitalism...(wtf??)...horizontal relations???...passive consumers..???... performative effect and enemies..... Yeah she uses a bunch of weird terms that are probably all Marxian lingo.....so hip and EDGY !!!.. She ends with "bigger thinking"..and "thought provoking"... as in let's push communism without coming right out and saying it...
Very telling that you can't find anything wrong with her arguments. So instead, you chose to illogically and hysterically attack her character with nothing but innuendo and ignorant off topic nonsense.
@@chuckleaf8027 Looks like you are proud of your Luddite ignorance, without coming right out and saying it... LOL! By the way, Milton Friedman is dead, and so are his fascist economic ideas.
As a Polish/British nationalist some of us believe work should be for the family and the nation in so far as to allow us to live in dignity but for that we need to reduce the idea of money as it enslaves the nations families across our globe.

@@DJWESG1 Well it's conservatives who call everything they up against 'socialism'.
@AlexXx exactly, and currently they control that narrative.

We all know the real way this ends. THEY ARE NOT GOING TO STOP.
bravissima e bellissima la profssa clara mattei
We need to give people more options to save or not spend money

Wolff, there you have your appointed successor, Mattei.
I'm not going to agree with your comment, but I would say that she sounds very smart. It's good to have people who are smart and good communicators to effectively translate the economics for lay people like myself.
Power and greed will be the demise of America and humanity!
The future is not certain. It depends on what we, the people of the world, do.

Cool 😎

We can.. but can they?
I don't want to discuss ""enemies."
There are no enemies .... only ignorance.
The capitalist class and their mercenaries are clearly our enemy. Yes, once and if the masses are educated our numbers can grow and that they do keep doing.
The oligarchy is most definitely our enemy.
@@SteveMoyer There are enemies. Capitalists know what they are doing.
