For the last 50 years of the 75 years he speaks of the U.S. was aided by the informal Petrodollar Agreement established during the Nixon Administration between the U.S. and Saudi Arabia, which provided the U.S. with an enormous advantage as it required other nations to obtain U.S. dollars to purchase the oil needed to keep their economies running. This allowed the U.S. to not only dictate trade terms, but ensured the flow of good (imports and exports), the increased strength of the U.S. economy and military, and provided the U.S. with the ability to impose crippling sanctions on other nations, using the dollar as a weapon. That agreement ended this month, and Saudi Arabia announced it would now price and sell oil in other currencies. The need to obtain dollars to acquire oil no longer exists, and there is little incentive to acquire a currency backed by nothing but a printing press.

When I listened to his critique on the failures and fixes of capitalism, I thought it was quite telling how he completely avoided the role of politics in outling his somewhat stilted explain of economic shocks and inequality in America. How a worker co-op with one-vote decision-making power without equal ownership would work is beyond me. Is somebody going to tell Jeff Bezos he's just been devalued? Is Prof Wolff going to cancel your stock? Will investors have to guess at the brainpower of a group of workers? Will FASB have to draft new accounting rules? Sounds like a really out there explanation of why poor people exist to me!

A good topic for sure. This is how I define them. Historical materialism is Marx's theory of history. It explains how economic and political changes have occurred over time in human groups. It posits that a society's economic system i.e. it's relations of production can become dysfunctional over time and fetter it's productive forces i.e. it labor, tools and raw materials used to produce goods and services. This causes a decline of material well being of the population, political revolt, and a new and better economic system replacing the dysfunctional old one. History is progressive. Human societies get more productive and powerful over time. Ancient slave societies become feudal ones. Feudal ones become capitalist ones. Capitalist ones become socialist ones. Socialist ones become communist ones. Dialectical materialism is basically a theory of cause and effect and change in the world in general. All causes are also effects and react off of and re-enforce one another. Every effect is produced by multiple causes and every cause is produced by multiple effects. It is basically just a more complicated version of the simple and linear one cause leads to one effect presentation of things that we usually get as an explanation of what we see in the world around us. Now I am going to watch the video and see how close my explanation is to Richard's. I will delete this post if I failed utterly in comparison to my commie elder.

The argument that R. R. Is wrong because capitalism is moving in the wrong direction is rather thin since he, too, would agree with that much. The argument that any fix to capitalism can be undone is more persuasive. The problem is, a complete break from capitalism is not really a viable possibility, not if we're talking about the U.S. Hell, in the current climate, I don't really see the path to even reforming capitalism. Those who Adam Smith would have referred to as the Masters of Mankind are too firmly entrenched, pulling all the strings of power, and they seem intent on moving us even further down the road towards autocracy.

Very useful, getting more of the family story, understanding the role Wolff's father had played pre-WWII in his community, and how he strived to assure his son's education was as complete as possible. How TUTORING and real dialogue, the socratic method shapes an intellect -- and then, how teaching (in this case, an undergrad to high school students) helps solidify one's grasp. Then more tutoring as a graduate student, if short-lived. I would wish this level of involvement in education for just everyone. Nothing better than drawing out ideas from someone simply by using questions. It's really heartening work, and watching how inspired the learner becomes is SO satisfying. I appreciate how Wolff continually empahsizes Marx's role in economics is to connect the dots: connect human suffering -- AND human striving -- to behaviors, and then aggregate/social behaviors. Totally lacking in near all criticisms of Marx, as I suppose detractors don't grasp how much the non-charts-and-graphs actually matter. Wolff's weekly updates regularly pointing to how market movements CHANGE BEHAVIORS of individuals are important contributions to the continued unrest at how our current societies aren't working -- and how to create solutions that will drive societies forward, not backward -- or continuing to hover in a no-mans-land.

to give somthing a certain name does not neccessarily mean it is that. communism, does not exist in reality, only in books. scialism, not existent. these two "systems" are more an illusion or an "ideal" for some. both of these systems do not combine with human nature and therefore cannot be executed. what is 100% in line with human nature is fascism. and when looking at the facts on the ground, the result, then all three have the exact same outcome. a few powerful and rich people, a small middle class, and the mass of people is rather poor without any power. this also goes for what they call "democracy". this is also just a show,, because the outcome is the same. it doesn`t matter which way to rome you take, because all ways lead to rome, and at the end you will be in rome. humans are not that different from each other, no matter where they are, what ethnicity, race, religion etc. greed, resentment, jealousy, stinginess, meanness and so on. that is human`s nature. very strong feelings. feelings are what drives humanity. socialism, communism...just thoughts, not worth talking about...

The Walton Family's $500 BILLION to China for cheap Chinese goods to distribute at their Chinese Distribution Centers across America hasn't helped much. Every single Republican CEO has worked their hardest to shut down jobs in America and ship them to China first, perhaps Canada & Mexico second - the only thing that seems to matter is the destruction of America jobs.

In 1990, 40% of the world's population lived on less than $2 a day and were constantly on the verge of starving. Today it's less than 8%. Do you want to go back to 40%? The rest of the world starves so the U.S. can have economic primacy? BTW, the U.S. is twice as rich as it was in 1990. You may not have noticed because 40% of the growth in U.S. wealth went to the top 1%, those worth over $10 million.

your first sentence is the reason why its changing, essentially Farming has enough Knowledge now, to make every country self-sufficient in Food and export-specific cash-cow surpluses. Bikino Fasso, I think just bought 500 tractors instead of tanks. We know the REST buddy, because the Z-banksters are controlling which top 20 families sit at the hight table real flows IMF/World Bank, UN programs, and Direct Investment are all controlled via a Kabal. If you are a good boy nation and trade on their TERMS you get loans to buy tanks you don't need in a foreign currency ($) that auto-devalues your own currency. I like and prey<<<<< That Africa wakes up from this slumber of "self-inflicted-leveraged-controlled" supression. Africa still has too many leaders and happy families on the TAKE its is exactly this MENTALITY that has allowed the ROT to continue and SEED for so long. It must stop or the YOKE will never be removed. Luv from a White Brit in X-ailse since 89. For example, Botswana supplies Is-Ra-El with Diamonds, not a word of sanction EVER, and like it cant import its own laser tech and learn how to AI-cut the glass......come ON.

This is probably just some idiot academic who does not know what events are like on the ground. If you read even just the last century of Chinese history, it has been pretty bad. Great leap forward. Great famine. Cultural revolution. So, you might also ask the question how is it that somebody who lays claim to 5,000 years of civilization has not come up with anything better than the events of the last century?
