I worked at a great hospital for 28 years and before the pandemic, the politicians and our fat governor slashed Medicaid and public health to bare bones. My hours were cut drastically and many staff were fired and laid off. In the ICU we are always short staffed and severely short staffed on the weekends. So now my friends in Hawaii are overwhelmed and working 2-3 shifts in a row, they are flying healthcare staff to help the hospital. My friends are literally putting their lives on the line. This should not happen. Profit over people lives. I moved overseas. In Thailand we have excellent healthcare here, I spent $75 dollars in the 2 years for healthcare. My cobra payment was $600 a month. FU. The expats I know don’t believe me when I tell them the outrageous healthcare cost.. It wasn’t always like that.
And yet people vote against their best interests because it’s been shit their entire lives and they don’t know anything else plus they are brainwashed by far right ideology like Fox News, Breitbart, The Daily Caller, etc. People are obsessed with the divisive issues like abortion and religion which the Republicans claim as their ideology even though women of all parties have abortions and plenty of Democrats believe in God yet the GOP fear mongers people based on these interests to forgo their reasoning and people will shoot off their own foot to belong to this simplified ideology which makes them totally ignore how they are being screwed over economically and civil rights wise.
Yr in yr out the US & UK claim GDP growth, adv tex ... but the reality is that more & more dbl income families are struggling to survive. They cut healthcare, medicare, education & other social equity developments. So GDP growths & saving from public well being would make a huge fortune. Where was the money go ?
@@lisaeischens2352 100% same in Australia, only we do have differing issues (we don't argue so much about things like abortion and health care and guns), but, people voting against their best interests... Australia does it in spades. Our conservative ex-adman Prime Minister is a Pentecostal who believes in the End Times. He basically let Australia burn (for months and months) and went on holiday to Hawaii while great swathes of Australia was on fire. Some 17 of his cabinet are Pentecostals, meanwhile, they look forward to the Rapture while we're becoming more and more of a police state. We're presently not allowed to travel to some states, and, we cannot travel overseas. When this lot were voted in again, many of us felt like we were at a funeral.
I live on Oahu. My friend is a nurse at Queen's Hospital on Oahu and they are not even at 70% capacity. All this talk about hospitals being overwhelmed in Hawaii is not true. The survival rate is 99.98% and the majority who have died had 2 or more illnesses and were over the age of 80. This is not a pandemic. More people have died from the flu than they have of this virus. Were talking less then 100 in the span of 7 months here!! Millions of people die of TB and it is extremely contagious and our government never bats an eyelash. Our government NEVER cared about its people--ever, if they did we wouldn't be have so much poverty, chronic illnesses, etc.. They wouldn't have allowed pesticides, crappy, no nutrient foods, pharma drugs that causes more harm than good etc.... If they cared they would advocate healthy eating to keep your immune system strong. Our system is all about profits, nothing more.
Red Tide Yes, I think that honesty is better than declaring happiness that is inaccurate. People are then given time to take any necessarily actions that Professor Wolff’s may suggest. The truth may not win acceptance but it would be foolish to ignore the true reality we now are facing.
These statements are misleading and incorrect. China and India are largely dependent upon trade with Europe and the United States. If our economy fails their economy will falter as well. Most companies that export from China into the USA are American companies that manufacture abroad mostly in China. China has begun to compete with us after they stole and copied many of our manufacturing methods and technology. They are also rapidly developing their own technology in an effort to become not only independent but a major global power. That is certainly a problem and hurts our economy however talk of trade deficits is misleading when most companies that manufacture in China and sell in the US are American subsidiaries or multinational corporations with American affiliations. China is importing food because they cannot produce enough food to meet the needs of their burgeoning population. Most Chinese people live in cities and work in factories. There is a growing middle class there but the vast majority of people in China work for low wages in manufacturing plants and production facilities. Most of the grain sold internationally is used to feed live stock, not humans. Capitalism itself is not the reason for the coming food shortages it is overpopulation and climate change primarily. Climate change will cause major disruptions in our food supply chain and distribution due to floods, drought, massive storms and wildfires. Capitalism is not the problem it is human activity, large scale conventional agriculture, industrialism and human development. All of the inherent problems in Capitalism are certainly detrimental to the long term welfare and general well being of any society but communism or socialism will not solve this problem. All these political systems and their respective societies rely on modern supply chains, nuclear power, fossil fuels, massive oil tankers, the shipping industry, automobiles, trucks, trains, rail and roadways, airports, jet travel, air transportation, manufacturing and all manner of industrial activity. All this activity is degrading and polluting our environment and causing climate change. As I write this there are massive wildfires raging in California and Oregon due to years of drought and heat caused by climate change. How soon will it be before we see food prices skyrocket. When local and global food producers are unable to meet market demand because of climate change we will be faced with one of the greatest calamities humanity has ever know. Food shortages will just be the beginning.
Professor Wolf contradicted himself when he said each state should be self sufficient. Then he said we should help the poorer states by sharing the wealth we produce. Even if we were to share the wealth produced in richer states we would still be dependent on modern transportation systems and supply chains to deliver goods, food and materials. People in New Mexico and Arizona live in a desert and would never be able to sustain their respective populations without importing food and many other things that are not available in that part of the country. Mississippi for instance would not be able to grow many types on food because of their climate. These are facts you can not just brush over. Maintaining populations in areas where the food, goods and materials needed require modern transportation and modern supply chains still leaves us in the same predicament. The same is true of many countries around the world. Even if all these things were provided feely we would still be dependent upon a system that is degrading and polluting our environment. All this human activity is causing climate change, severe weather, superstorms, droughts, flooding, wildfires, food shortages, power outages and supply chain disruptions. These events will eventually lead to the mass migration of distressed populations and wars over dwindling resources.
Capitalism has become the scapegoat for all our ills and it certainly has major problems but the real threat to our continued survival is Industrialism. I am not a luddite but if we do not scale back universally we are headed for global disaster.
Prof Wolff says the 1% are simply taking as much as they can before the ship goes down. He could have added that, the way things are for them, their behaviour is Completely Rational. What is Totally Irrational is the 99% sitting back and watching them, barely uttering a squeak. The 1% must think 'Everything's ticking along beautifully.'
Hard to do when they do such a great job of keeping us divided. More important things for the 99% to worry about like pronouns & other issues that don't make the top 100. We unite & get back to fighting once crush those at top.
EVERYTHING he is saying and selling in his own book, has been going on for the past 200 years and has been said in many prior books by many real heroes and experts who sounded the alarm 200 years ago up until the present time. Many of them are already dead and gone and still most people act as if they have never heard of these facts. How many books are there going to be that only a few are going to read like have read and understand for at least the last 60 years of my adult life? I have lived a lifetime of NOT BEING IN DEBT.

We will be ensnared by the trap set; just like every group of people found on this continent when the invading, marauding English from G.B. swarmed to our shores and from which early Americans believed they had won indepenence from in their hard fought war for Independence...

Don't worry about it? Just be happy? I lost my job, home, healthcare...been looking for a job since the start of the shutdowns because I don't care about covid! After hundreds of applications I've had 2 interviews for part-time, "on call" because these businesses have no business. Or there wasn't really a job, but the employer was collecting resume in hopes that business would return. Meanwhile, unemployment has ended. I love Wolfe, but really, you two sound like a couple members of the "comfortable class". Let's call essential workers what they really are - EXPENDABLE!
Gertrude: I hope you will find a job and have some sort of support system, like family or friends who can help you out until you get back on your feet. It has been so difficult for so many middle and working class, as well as for small business owners. Under Trump, it has gotten worse and worse for us. Only big corporations and the top 5% are doing great. So, do your best to stay healthy (I know it's easier to say than to do) and hopefully things will get better after the election.

This short article, available around the world in more than 1000 languages, may be of interest to you: www.jw.org/en/bible-teachings/questions/what-gods-kingdom-will-do/ It explains how there is going to be a total change in management for the world.

Isaiah 65:21,22 "They will build houses and live in them, And they will plant vineyards and eat their fruitage. 22 They will not build for someone else to inhabit, Nor will they plant for others to eat. For the days of my people will be like the days of a tree, And the work of their hands my chosen ones will enjoy to the full."

It will crush and put an end to all these kingdoms, and it alone will stand forever,"
Thank you, Julianna, for having Professor Wolff on. He's an economic icon, & he never sugar-coats his message, which I believe is the best way to do it; that way you don't have any unpleasant surprises. Great interview! Hope you have him on again soon.
I think it would be amazing if Richard Wolff had 3 hours to do a deep dive on the Joe Rogan podcast. Well worth his time, given the reach of his platform too.
As much as i don't like joe rogan and how he somewhat panders to his right wing supporters (he brings people like ben shapiro and alex jones), having wolffe on might change some of his listeners views
@@uhurus2 I agree. And his listeners are exactly the kind of constituency who could either a) go far right, or b) actually become aware of their class interests and become more progressive. The sort of Gen X, macho types who are financially ok but not billionaires, and the people who are influenced by those people...
There is a lot of people Rogan should interview. I wish he would ...Naomi Klein, Chris Hedges, Yanis Varoufakis, Leslie Kean etc... I love way he popularises people and comes at interviews from a completely lay person perspective, because he his, and tries to understand things, mistakes and all, in the Same way any other person would
The world society couldn't collapse ..the food wouldn't run out ...IF it was simply made FINANCIALLY worthwhile for people to SHARE the jobs we do NEED people to do and work LESS instead of having most of the world's population doing useless jobs we don't actually need at all...most of the planets population are working hard and doing anything FOR money instead of doing any work we NEED to have done. We could easily have loads more people doing the work we NEED ensuring we can all have everything we NEED ..and still work much LESS than we do now by SHARING the work we need to have done and getting rid of all the useless 'jobs' people do FOR money.
Who decides what is needed or what is useless? By what standard? By what means are those supposed needs enforced or encouraged? The answers are severely different dependent on which ideology you claim.
Professor Wolff, ThankYou for all of your honest thoughts, & ideas about what is happening in America today! You spoke & explained so well what is happening currently in the USA & the world. What a breath of fresh air to listen to someone with the Knowledge & the speaking ability to communicate & speak the facts about what America Is going through at this time in History. Thank You again!!!
@Marlin Williams okay let's get started. Cuba certainly has some Marxist ideals and has several advantages over the United State including Universal Health Care (and a better Healthcare System) and nobody is homeless in Cuba unless they want to be. It might not be a great home but it's a home. Venezuela is a corrupt plutocracy. Most critics cite anti-democratic governance, corruption and mismanagement of the economy as causes of the crisis as well as a drop in oil prices which is their main source of income. North Korea has no Marxist ideology of any kind whatsoever.

Will we survive? A pandemic, hurricanes, floods, fires and an economic collapse. If we had an FDR it would help. Bernie was our hope but the airwaves are controlled by the wealthy and they chose Biden. Hunger is already a reality and has been since I can remember and I’m an old lady. I so worried for our young people. This is so unfair.
America is two missed meals away from revolution. UBI is hardly perfect *but* it's what is truly needed right now. $1k per person, per month. Without it millions will go hungry and become homeless. We as a nation are at a crossroads. Neoliberalism is dying and we will either become a socialist democracy like some European countries or a neofeudalistic nation like Brazil. I'm hoping for the former but betting on the latter. Either way I sense revolution is in the air.

In my experience, outdoors, away from this "idiot box", trying to grow food we're having earlier frosts -- this year our 1st was in late august, so had to harvest curcubits (squash family) early. Summers are hotter & there is a fire approaching, seemingly. So if we're getting early frosts and hot daze during fall (inverse in spring) then when are we supposed to do fall or spring planting? We've never had more information on how to fix things -- Trump even signed onto a Trillion Tree Initiative yet has yet to initiate. We need follow thru. Forests are like the only thing known to stabilize climate, so deforestation is leading us Earthlings into climate chaos. China turned its military to plant a Great Green Wall of China (billions of trees) vs. desertification. Africa has it's Green Belt Movement, have planted billions as well. Tho it seems we need to clear forests for the sun exposure needed to grow food, on a grand scale we need forests, at least close by, to grow food without the kind of irrigation set up that steals water from afar, ahem! Plus growing microalgae in desertified regions is better, as that is the fastest growing plant known, so faster at both making oxygen & sequestering carbon. Plus if kept cool can become lipid heavy. These oils can benefit people, animals, used for motor fuel etc. Like i said much & i pray enuf is known, we just need follow thru. Ending petroleum use is integral too. So is no-till Regenerative Agriculture, including Food Forests.

Early Sept 2013 the US delegates was told: "Step aside when you can't lead" by the Ireland delegate at the Jakarta conference on Earth Environment. The US has isolating itself further from the rest of the world not only on the Climate Change but also on an array of issues. Washing has made mistakes upon mistakes since. Indeed the capitalists have eaten themselves to the pending collapse. Sun Tzu: We won because they'd made mistakes. We lost because we'd made mistakes. The first serious mistake the US made was the Vietnam war. The war exhausted the Treasury wealth to the point that the French took their Bullion Gold out of New York for suspecting the Fed over printed the US Dollars. Afraid the other nations follow the French, 15 Aug. 1971 the then POTUS Richard Nixon declared that the USD divorced from Gold & all other Treasury Assets. The $34 /Once Gold price that had been maintained so well from 1944 Brett Wood Convention to 1971 was rapidly changed for worse ever since. However, the USD was too mighty to fail. The Western Europe & Japan bailed the US out. China shared the USD burden later. In fact China bore the heaviest burden of the USD since the 2008 GFC. Nowadays, both the EU, China & many are sick of the USD tyranny. Most decided to dump it. The USD won't collapse overnight, but it will eventually. Maybe in 4-ish yrs time.
100% it will collapse it already is starting with everyone pulling out of USD backed oil and greed is helping push it. You taught me some history though in regards to why we got off gold. Thanks.

Global Agricultural collapse is unfortunately inevitable I fear. And we should really fear it because the human world is sadly a powder keg and the global agricultural collapse is the lit match. We would need to invest in multidirectional agriculture and rainwater harvesting on a vast scale and ending our reliance on chemical fertiliser and insecticides. Fostering small smart scale gardening especially virtical gardening and urban gardening. BUT the growing season temperatures are rising each year THAT'S the real problem.

The real sickness is organizational psychopath, which is a predictable consequence of a combination of: 1) The cultural veneration of greed by economists fooled by free market fairytales. 2) The disappearance of shame about the exploitation of legal loopholes and technicalities. 3) corporate culture that deter responsible and reward antisocial behaviors among managers. 4) A hands off economic policy that extremely undervalues the lives, health and economic worth of employees/consumers/inhabitants. 5) Divisive politicians, media, class structures and ideologies, that serve the divide and conquer mentality of psychopaths. 6) A weak willed populus that refuses to risk its comfort and is incapable of drawing a definitive line/think outside the box/stand up to bullies/ deviate from the group/etc etc. 7) Governments unwilling to defend its subjects or impotent to do so. 8) Corporate structures that concentrate true psychopaths in the higher management positions. 9) Management feels responsibility towards stockholders/directors/higher management more strongly that their responsibility towards its assigned employees. Remedy any number of these and the societal rot will reduce, the issue is much more nuanced than just "capitalism is bad"...

This scamdemic is a huge hoax on us from the govt to increase its control on the masses and prepare us for more and God knows what further terrible controls.
Hi, David. Seems we feel strongly about our hatred of money. I think there’s many of us. We have to be heard! The system doesn’t like a lot of things, but this idea is so deeply anathema that I’m not surprised that I don’t hear a lot of people hating on money. We know there’s a better system. Greed would rather burn it all down than build a sustainable society for everyone. ☮️❤️
@@kensurrency2564 I don't hat Money, I hat what it's purpose is. It's not for Life, it's for an artificial will control of humans, which is rapidly deleting the humanity once again. Even wolves work together to " survive ", but they make theirs family send, go to work, play, educated each other, without money. Scientists ? Economists are not.
David Evans I know you’re right. I’ve just developed such an immune response over the years that I get a little wild with words sometimes. My problem is that I know a lot of us recognize the corruption but can’t seem to do anything about it, peacefully. Thanks for reminding me to calibrate my response. My idealism shows itself when the sleeves go up. I just want peaceful cooperation and love to become contagious.
We can't recover from poisoning while we continue to take the poison. Need a global forum on the issue, but the economists can't seem to equate anything without the use of money. Tunnel vision, recreating the wheel. People invision being cast into the Stone Age without it for example.
Coincidentally the subject on the brazillian news yesterday was the price of rice and food in general. Brazil export all sorts of food to the whole world. Agro business is the main propaganda of the Bolsonaro government. The agro sharks managed to deregulate strategic food stocks run by government in the past. Nowadays the neoliberal agenda leaves the poor totally in the hands of crook investors. There lack of rice, man! Rice!!!! The price is so high the government is emergently lowering to zero all taxes on rice and is going to start importing. My god, Brazil importing food is the proof that humanity has to avoid capitalism. It's not working anymore. This shit needs to be changed. Enough of misery!
Capitalism is the only system that works. What screws it up are added Socialistic policies that put a hamper on growth and freedom. Capitalism isn't greedy like Socialism. You make a product and if I don't' like it I don't need to buy it. If I think you're greedy then I stop buying that product. I don't have Government telling me if I should buy it, or how do I buy it or what is expected by it. You wouldn't have a smart phone if we were socialistic.
@David Evans - you know and I know we don’t need classes. We’re all one species. Therefore, if we don’t need classes, why do we “need” money at all? Marx was right about the class problem at least. Wolff is right on target with democratization of work. We gotta bring all good ideas into a coherent narrative. ...
I want to see where scientifically, humans are incapable of creativity and productivity without money. I'll be waiting all day for the professor to address that, rather than shrugging it off because ignorance can make the most logical thing seem rediculous.
Which people do you intend to make slaves of in order to fulfill your idea of fair? Who gets to take and who will be forced to give? By what standards will you determine these things and who decides?
Yes, We ARE Seeing The Beginning Of A Global Food Crisis! And the underhanded policies for creating such a food crisis are already deployed....one of the mechanisms is to throw the world into lock-down, frightening people into compliance with wearing masks which are harmful to our health, keeping people out of work, destroying businesses, but NOT PRIVATE CORPORATE CONGLOMERATES which are behind the atrocities! Any and all of you who fall into the definition of damned fools , can go right on worshipping those who are lying to us all through their teeth or withholding valid information from us...Don't forget to fight for your place in line to take whatever vaccine offered by those the liars promote so you can have your DNA altered irrevocably.....(sorry I used a word with more than four letters in it; most of you are illiterate anyway) Get your vaccines so you can be made "into a super - duper Superman who can scale tall buildings..... The Planet will be well rid of the lot of you.

China also have crazy reserves. During the rice to ethanol craze of 2004-7 where a large amount of rice was bought to make cheap fuel, China opened its national reserve to prevent starvation in countries like India. At the time, they had a reserve of about twice total amount of rice traded on the world market in reserve. Thus, worst comes to worst, they will have to dip into their emergency rations, its what the reserve is for.
Thanks to the likes of Educators like Mr. Wolff who even identifies himself as a Marxian Economist Professor, this dystopian world culture could not have been accomplished. And look at how many comments are extolling his greatness...It's absolutely disgusting how so many ignorant ones kiss up to those who have a hand in their destruction...and they cannot be helped. They are committed to biting the hands of those trying to jump start their thinking processes...so frustrating...SMH It's only our mortal bodies the evil ones might destroy; not our souls. Their souls are already lost and they don't even realize it.
I worked at a great hospital for 28 years and before the pandemic, the politicians and our fat governor slashed Medicaid and public health to bare bones. My hours were cut drastically and many staff were fired and laid off. In the ICU we are always short staffed and severely short staffed on the weekends. So now my friends in Hawaii are overwhelmed and working 2-3 shifts in a row, they are flying healthcare staff to help the hospital. My friends are literally putting their lives on the line. This should not happen. Profit over people lives. I moved overseas. In Thailand we have excellent healthcare here, I spent $75 dollars in the 2 years for healthcare. My cobra payment was $600 a month. FU. The expats I know don’t believe me when I tell them the outrageous healthcare cost.. It wasn’t always like that.
And yet people vote against their best interests because it’s been shit their entire lives and they don’t know anything else plus they are brainwashed by far right ideology like Fox News, Breitbart, The Daily Caller, etc. People are obsessed with the divisive issues like abortion and religion which the Republicans claim as their ideology even though women of all parties have abortions and plenty of Democrats believe in God yet the GOP fear mongers people based on these interests to forgo their reasoning and people will shoot off their own foot to belong to this simplified ideology which makes them totally ignore how they are being screwed over economically and civil rights wise.
Yr in yr out the US & UK claim GDP growth, adv tex ... but the reality is that more & more dbl income families are struggling to survive. They cut healthcare, medicare, education & other social equity developments.
So GDP growths & saving from public well being would make a huge fortune. Where was the money go ?
@@lisaeischens2352 100% same in Australia, only we do have differing issues (we don't argue so much about things like abortion and health care and guns), but, people voting against their best interests... Australia does it in spades. Our conservative ex-adman Prime Minister is a Pentecostal who believes in the End Times. He basically let Australia burn (for months and months) and went on holiday to Hawaii while great swathes of Australia was on fire. Some 17 of his cabinet are Pentecostals, meanwhile, they look forward to the Rapture while we're becoming more and more of a police state. We're presently not allowed to travel to some states, and, we cannot travel overseas. When this lot were voted in again, many of us felt like we were at a funeral.
I live on Oahu. My friend is a nurse at Queen's Hospital on Oahu and they are not even at 70% capacity. All this talk about hospitals being overwhelmed in Hawaii is not true. The survival rate is 99.98% and the majority who have died had 2 or more illnesses and were over the age of 80. This is not a pandemic. More people have died from the flu than they have of this virus. Were talking less then 100 in the span of 7 months here!! Millions of people die of TB and it is extremely contagious and our government never bats an eyelash. Our government NEVER cared about its people--ever, if they did we wouldn't be have so much poverty, chronic illnesses, etc.. They wouldn't have allowed pesticides, crappy, no nutrient foods, pharma drugs that causes more harm than good etc.... If they cared they would advocate healthy eating to keep your immune system strong. Our system is all about profits, nothing more.

Professor Wolff's takes aren't depressing they're more chilling & bracing - like a strong gust of fresh clean air.
Red Tide Yes, I think that honesty is better than declaring happiness that is inaccurate. People are then given time to take any necessarily actions that Professor Wolff’s may suggest. The truth may not win acceptance but it would be foolish to ignore the true reality we now are facing.
These statements are misleading and incorrect. China and India are largely dependent upon trade with Europe and the United States. If our economy fails their economy will falter as well. Most companies that export from China into the USA are American companies that manufacture abroad mostly in China. China has begun to compete with us after they stole and copied many of our manufacturing methods and technology. They are also rapidly developing their own technology in an effort to become not only independent but a major global power. That is certainly a problem and hurts our economy however talk of trade deficits is misleading when most companies that manufacture in China and sell in the US are American subsidiaries or multinational corporations with American affiliations. China is importing food because they cannot produce enough food to meet the needs of their burgeoning population. Most Chinese people live in cities and work in factories. There is a growing middle class there but the vast majority of people in China work for low wages in manufacturing plants and production facilities. Most of the grain sold internationally is used to feed live stock, not humans. Capitalism itself is not the reason for the coming food shortages it is overpopulation and climate change primarily. Climate change will cause major disruptions in our food supply chain and distribution due to floods, drought, massive storms and wildfires. Capitalism is not the problem it is human activity, large scale conventional agriculture, industrialism and human development. All of the inherent problems in Capitalism are certainly detrimental to the long term welfare and general well being of any society but communism or socialism will not solve this problem. All these political systems and their respective societies rely on modern supply chains, nuclear power, fossil fuels, massive oil tankers, the shipping industry, automobiles, trucks, trains, rail and roadways, airports, jet travel, air transportation, manufacturing and all manner of industrial activity. All this activity is degrading and polluting our environment and causing climate change. As I write this there are massive wildfires raging in California and Oregon due to years of drought and heat caused by climate change. How soon will it be before we see food prices skyrocket. When local and global food producers are unable to meet market demand because of climate change we will be faced with one of the greatest calamities humanity has ever know. Food shortages will just be the beginning.
Professor Wolf contradicted himself when he said each state should be self sufficient. Then he said we should help the poorer states by sharing the wealth we produce. Even if we were to share the wealth produced in richer states we would still be dependent on modern transportation systems and supply chains to deliver goods, food and materials. People in New Mexico and Arizona live in a desert and would never be able to sustain their respective populations without importing food and many other things that are not available in that part of the country. Mississippi for instance would not be able to grow many types on food because of their climate. These are facts you can not just brush over. Maintaining populations in areas where the food, goods and materials needed require modern transportation and modern supply chains still leaves us in the same predicament. The same is true of many countries around the world. Even if all these things were provided feely we would still be dependent upon a system that is degrading and polluting our environment. All this human activity is causing climate change, severe weather, superstorms, droughts, flooding, wildfires, food shortages, power outages and supply chain disruptions. These events will eventually lead to the mass migration of distressed populations and wars over dwindling resources.
Capitalism has become the scapegoat for all our ills and it certainly has major problems but the real threat to our continued survival is Industrialism. I am not a luddite but if we do not scale back universally we are headed for global disaster.

How many books are there going to be that only a few are going to read like have read and understand for at least the last 60 years of my adult life? I have lived a lifetime of NOT BEING IN DEBT. I have NEVER lived above my income level. I am not one who was in a contest to see who among my associates and so -called friends was the most "successful"! Yet, the fed. reserve fraudulently claimed a liability against me which I had to fight for at least ten years in court and by the time the fight was over, I was left penniless, my homestead disappeared into a private trust of a firm of attorneys who had never practiced law in court but had been doing what they did to many others for years and to me for all their professional lives; I was told this by other attorneys who recognized their names but acted as if NOTHING COULD BE DONE ABOUT IT!

Cuba certainly has some Marxist ideals and has several advantages over the United State including Universal Health Care (and a better Healthcare System) and nobody is homeless in Cuba unless they want to be. It might not be a great home but it's a home.
Venezuela is a corrupt plutocracy. Most critics cite anti-democratic governance, corruption and mismanagement of the economy as causes of the crisis as well as a drop in oil prices which is their main source of income.
North Korea has no Marxist ideology of any kind whatsoever.

Too bad his philosophy will lead to further darkness for humanity if it's enacted.
I love Noam Chomsky also.
@@chrism3933 its not his philosophy. He's a follower of Marx. You should read Marx too...he makes a lot of sense in these crazy times.

With so many small businesses going down the drain, and big businesses becoming monopolies, things are becoming more disfunctional.
A food shortage in the US will begin with burgers, fries, hot dogs and frozen pizza..then will finally trickle down to broccoli, watercress and lettuce
Ess Kay Who eat burgers, fries, hot dogs and frozen pizza is doomed to end up sick, obese and diabetic. Shortage of such junk is good news for many, not for all of course, there are always those who choose to suicide a slow way and died with their delicious foods. It has been forgotten that we eat to live not the other way around. America is a very sick country, the sooner this arrogant empire collapses the better for the all world. As for the burgers, forget it, junk foods it is, toxic and not needed to live a healthy life. Human, hum, frightening lots, the most dangerous animal on this planet, period.
Always great seeing Mr.Wolff
I'm not a fan of Trump but when I hear people blaming a non politician who has been in office for 3 1/2 years for all our problems I shut them out because their hatred makes them emotionally unstable and incapable of logical thinking

Thank god, I am in Thailand. Food is everywhere.
Jitsak Srisakwarakul me too I am from Hawaii and moved to Thailand 2 years ago. The food, coffee and The Thai people are very kind and helpful. I couldn’t afford to live in Hawaii or anywhere in the USA, because of the insane cost of healthcare insurance. In the 2 years I have been here I have only paid $75, that’s it. Also, the healthcare here is efficient, excellent and affordable. I don’t need healthcare insurance here.

There was an article by the same publisher referencing 15% last year but I can't put my finger on it. Here is their article from 2018 that says similar.
www.theguardian.com/environment/2018/sep/03/falling-yields-of-key-uk-crops-could-raise-food-prices-and-leave-farmers-struggling
A different article from 2019 discussing some of the problems we've been having.

Then his year:
www.theguardian.com/environment/2020/aug/17/uk-facing-worst-wheat-harvest-since-1980s-national-farmers-union-nfu
Everything from carrots to potatoes is down according to farmers union which means more imports which means higher prices. All OK so long as other country's don't have similar simultaneous problems and need more imports themselves, unfortunately that is not the case. Our globalised food system is more fragile than we realise and nations like the UK that are woefully unself sufficient may suffer greatly in the future because of depending on capitalism and a hand full of corporate owners of most of our farms paying farmer peanuts to produce, was always open the systemic shock.
Thank you

Our food security should not be tethered to a long and complicated supply chain. That change needs to take root at the local level and implemented through cultural means.
Thank you so much for sharing such wise observations.
We have to open the economy back up fully, you can not shut it down and expect a good economy.
Finally this corrupt and immoral system is coming to an end
Not without a fight it isn’t, what did it take to end slavery and feudalism? War, violence and a forced change in thinking

I was born in a very very very poor country it was feudalism People were starving no food my parents had to grow their food and yes some people were resorting to cannibalism until the country became a socialist etopia There were no longer any problem food was abandoned life was perfect but the United States had to stick its nose and destroy it kill 2 million people
Yes, the system is coming to an end, but we are still in it.

29:40 Wow, that metaphor he used really hit the point home bigly. Excellent. Love it.
In my experience, outdoors, away from this "idiot box", trying to grow food we're having earlier frosts -- this year our 1st was in late august, so had to harvest curcubits (squash family) early. Summers are hotter & there is a fire approaching, seemingly. So if we're getting early frosts and hot daze during fall (inverse in spring) then when are we supposed to do fall or spring planting? We've never had more information on how to fix things -- Trump even signed onto a Trillion Tree Initiative yet has yet to initiate. We need follow thru. Forests are like the only thing known to stabilize climate, so deforestation is leading us Earthlings into climate chaos. China turned its military to plant a Great Green Wall of China (billions of trees) vs. desertification. Africa has it's Green Belt Movement, have planted billions as well. Tho it seems we need to clear forests for the sun exposure needed to grow food, on a grand scale we need forests, at least close by, to grow food without the kind of irrigation set up that steals water from afar, ahem! Plus growing microalgae in desertified regions is better, as that is the fastest growing plant known, so faster at both making oxygen & sequestering carbon. Plus if kept cool can become lipid heavy. These oils can benefit people, animals, used for motor fuel etc. Like i said much & i pray enuf is known, we just need follow thru. Ending petroleum use is integral too. So is no-till Regenerative Agriculture, including Food Forests.
Now this is a economic report that means something Nick. About the weather. The land. What this amazing machine the Earth is doing. You should start a channel doing just this. So good man. I had this idea. What about giant glass houses that go upwards like 30 stories. Glass. everything rotating. No people. pick with robot arm. I think its the way forward. Grow food where the people are. Indoors so no pests then no sprays. No weeds. Water purification. Condensation. I might hit up Elon Musk for a loan haha.
@@jamesmason4323 Most every city I've visited has Community Gardens. Now they need Community Greenhouses, yes. I subscribe more to the Gaia hypothesis. It really helps to ascribe living attributes to such a homeostasis keeping system, particularly in how we relate to "it" (Her). Just noticed this as i was scanning news www.theroot.com/a-judge-asked-harvard-to-find-out-why-so-many-black-peo-1845017462 I feel our countries need to overcome this to get on with Life Matters as a movement. Then we can all work together happily towards averting climate chaos. Look into polyculture agriculture & permaculture for how your system needs human and myriad more living inputs, in balance. Much thanks for your wish that I start a channel, but i'm busy growing food. Heading outside now
Thank you so much. Hope more people learn more from Prof. Wolfe.
Early Sept 2013 the US delegates was told: "Step aside when you can't lead" by the Ireland delegate at the Jakarta conference on Earth Environment.
The US has isolating itself further from the rest of the world not only on the Climate Change but also on an array of issues. Washing has made mistakes upon mistakes since.
Indeed the capitalists have eaten themselves to the pending collapse.
Sun Tzu: We won because they'd made mistakes. We lost because we'd made mistakes.
The first serious mistake the US made was the Vietnam war. The war exhausted the Treasury wealth to the point that the French took their Bullion Gold out of New York for suspecting the Fed over printed the US Dollars. Afraid the other nations follow the French, 15 Aug. 1971 the then POTUS Richard Nixon declared that the USD divorced from Gold & all other Treasury Assets. The $34 /Once Gold price that had been maintained so well from 1944 Brett Wood Convention to 1971 was rapidly changed for worse ever since.
However, the USD was too mighty to fail. The Western Europe & Japan bailed the US out. China shared the USD burden later. In fact China bore the heaviest burden of the USD since the 2008 GFC.
Nowadays, both the EU, China & many are sick of the USD tyranny. Most decided to dump it. The USD won't collapse overnight, but it will eventually. Maybe in 4-ish yrs time.
100% it will collapse it already is starting with everyone pulling out of USD backed oil and greed is helping push it. You taught me some history though in regards to why we got off gold. Thanks.
Just read the art of war. Loved it and realized I do many things offered from it. Now I know more.
look I don't call it hoarding, or prepping, I call it being prepared. I plant a garden. I have chickens. I give my eggs away to family and friends if I have enough for me. I sell my eggs at work at a reasonable price and I make sure I have enough food for a job loss or a health issue that may cause me to have to take a couple of weeks off of work. I can at least eat in order to go on.
Bravo. There should be more intellectuals who speak facts and truths!
Universities and Colleges are greedy, greedy, greedy.
how much of the food processing does China own in the world? including in the U.S.
Squirrels don't pay rent.
What happened to the “we can do” American attitude? Are we wimps?
Yep we are wimps
We have rich soil, heritage seeds and all kinds of new ways to grow food. This is ridiculous that anyone has to go hungry. Evil people suck 😞
Well the rich will always have food and us proles probably need to lose a few pounds. You are a slave and have no say.
Don't fool yourself guys. There is only one reason China is back buying food in America. They need it. They have emptied out Brazil.
Julianna is an excellent interviewer, goodness. Yes, a hopeful ending.
This system will never disappear.
The ELITES too strong and have all politicians with them.
Wrong. The elites will go away. One way or another.
planet ponzi is over. what ever was going on before this bug is over with. what do they mean by middle class? the vast majority of people in america are wage earners. some may make 30k,40k,50k, etc.etc. where are the dividing lines of lower,middle,upper class?
Here in Brasil rice prices exploded as our currency lost lots of value to U.S. dollar, so producers prefer export and make more money. Whatever happens, average citizens get screwed
I think that honesty is better than declaring happiness that is inaccurate. People are then given time to take any necessarily actions that Professor Wolff’s may suggest. The truth may not win acceptance but it would be foolish to ignore the true reality we now are facing.
Global Agricultural collapse is unfortunately inevitable I fear. And we should really fear it because the human world is sadly a powder keg and the global agricultural collapse is the lit match. We would need to invest in multidirectional agriculture and rainwater harvesting on a vast scale and ending our reliance on chemical fertiliser and insecticides. Fostering small smart scale gardening especially virtical gardening and urban gardening. BUT the growing season temperatures are rising each year THAT'S the real problem. Climate change might create hell on Earth.
All this because DT

This Professor has confirmed my thoughts on this Country, 100%. We ALL learn teamwork makes the dream work in Kindergarten.
With the billions and trillions going out, it’s insane! 330 million dollars would give each citizen a million dollars. An investment in the worker bees, would be a great investment.
Capitalism brings innovation, but predatory capitalism is greed, and unsustainable.
I believe politics are only a distraction for us little people. We all know who really holds the purse strings. ALL Monies end game is the same. Thank you Professor Wolff.
CAPITALISM DOESN'T ORGANIZE SOCIAETY TO BENEFIT ALL, IT EXPLOITS EVERYTHING FOR THE FEW TO GET SUPER RICH.
Lol how do you think socialism works? Everybody is equally poor and the few rich rule.
Nahh brah thats government lols
The real sickness is organizational psychopath, which is a predictable consequence of a combination of:
1) The cultural veneration of greed by economists fooled by free market fairytales.
2) The disappearance of shame about the exploitation of legal loopholes and technicalities.
3) corporate culture that deter responsible and reward antisocial behaviors among managers.
4) A hands off economic policy that extremely undervalues the lives, health and economic worth of employees/consumers/inhabitants.
5) Divisive politicians, media, class structures and ideologies, that serve the divide and conquer mentality of psychopaths.
6) A weak willed populus that refuses to risk its comfort and is incapable of drawing a definitive line/think outside the box/stand up to bullies/ deviate from the group/etc etc.
7) Governments unwilling to defend its subjects or impotent to do so.
8) Corporate structures that concentrate true psychopaths in the higher management positions.
9) Management feels responsibility towards stockholders/directors/higher management more strongly that their responsibility towards its assigned employees.
Remedy any number of these and the societal rot will reduce, the issue is much more nuanced than just "capitalism is bad"...

We can really have a democracy without money. With it, forget it.
Hi, David. Seems we feel strongly about our hatred of money. I think there’s many of us. We have to be heard! The system doesn’t like a lot of things, but this idea is so deeply anathema that I’m not surprised that I don’t hear a lot of people hating on money. We know there’s a better system. Greed would rather burn it all down than build a sustainable society for everyone. ☮️❤️
@@kensurrency2564 I don't hat Money, I hat what it's purpose is. It's not for Life, it's for an artificial will control of humans, which is rapidly deleting the humanity once again. Even wolves work together to " survive ", but they make theirs family send, go to work, play, educated each other, without money. Scientists ? Economists are not.
David Evans I know you’re right. I’ve just developed such an immune response over the years that I get a little wild with words sometimes. My problem is that I know a lot of us recognize the corruption but can’t seem to do anything about it, peacefully. Thanks for reminding me to calibrate my response. My idealism shows itself when the sleeves go up. I just want peaceful cooperation and love to become contagious.
We can't recover from poisoning while we continue to take the poison. Need a global forum on the issue, but the economists can't seem to equate anything without the use of money. Tunnel vision, recreating the wheel.
People invision being cast into the Stone Age without it for example.

Monsanto destroyed farmers and the food chain .
Coincidentally the subject on the brazillian news yesterday was the price of rice and food in general. Brazil export all sorts of food to the whole world. Agro business is the main propaganda of the Bolsonaro government. The agro sharks managed to deregulate strategic food stocks run by government in the past. Nowadays the neoliberal agenda leaves the poor totally in the hands of crook investors. There lack of rice, man! Rice!!!! The price is so high the government is emergently lowering to zero all taxes on rice and is going to start importing. My god, Brazil importing food is the proof that humanity has to avoid capitalism. It's not working anymore. This shit needs to be changed. Enough of misery!
Capitalism eats it's own young. The Dream is over. How will people survive? Anyone seen the movie Mad Max?
Capitalism is the only system that works. What screws it up are added Socialistic policies that put a hamper on growth and freedom. Capitalism isn't greedy like Socialism. You make a product and if I don't' like it I don't need to buy it. If I think you're greedy then I stop buying that product. I don't have Government telling me if I should buy it, or how do I buy it or what is expected by it. You wouldn't have a smart phone if we were socialistic.
It is not the lower or middle class that doesn't want free markets it is the wealth!
When society gets rid of money and all the " classes" of divisions it creates, maybe Humanity can develop some class
I love that sentiment! Humanity is still pretty shitty, always has been, and we need to bloody grow up.
@David Evans - you know and I know we don’t need classes. We’re all one species. Therefore, if we don’t need classes, why do we “need” money at all? Marx was right about the class problem at least. Wolff is right on target with democratization of work. We gotta bring all good ideas into a coherent narrative. ...
Money doesn't have a conscience. Humans are on their way.
I want to see where scientifically, humans are incapable of creativity and productivity without money. I'll be waiting all day for the professor to address that, rather than shrugging it off because ignorance can make the most logical thing seem rediculous.
Which people do you intend to make slaves of in order to fulfill your idea of fair? Who gets to take and who will be forced to give? By what standards will you determine these things and who decides?
Yes, We ARE Seeing The Beginning Of A Global Food Crisis! And the underhanded policies for creating such a food crisis are already deployed....one of the mechanisms is to throw the world into lock-down, frightening people into compliance with wearing masks which are harmful to our health, keeping people out of work, destroying businesses, but NOT PRIVATE CORPORATE CONGLOMERATES which are behind the atrocities! Any and all of you who fall into the definition of damned fools , can go right on worshipping those who are lying to us all through their teeth or withholding valid information from us...Don't forget to fight for your place in line to take whatever vaccine offered by those the liars promote so you can have your DNA altered irrevocably.....(sorry I used a word with more than four letters in it; most of you are illiterate anyway) Get your vaccines so you can be made "into a super - duper Superman who can scale tall buildings.....

How are people supposed to stop any of this? We are sitting back just watching our country sink with our hands tied
China also have crazy reserves. During the rice to ethanol craze of 2004-7 where a large amount of rice was bought to make cheap fuel, China opened its national reserve to prevent starvation in countries like India. At the time, they had a reserve of about twice total amount of rice traded on the world market in reserve. Thus, worst comes to worst, they will have to dip into their emergency rations, its what the reserve is for.
