What the heck???
Where are all of the Leftist/Liberal/socialist/Democrat Progressives lining up to support "America's most prominent Marxist economist"??????
I gave the his lecture.....I posted his ideas.....and lil' ol' me has to post both the ideas and my the truth!!!
I figured you Lefties would be out there championing the kind of hot air that the Left teaches kids in colleges......
No???
OK...here's another of Dr.Wolff's conjectures...bet you like this one....
8. How did the business community react to this windfall? By claiming that they did so because they were really great entrepreneurs!
How to reward such greatness? Starting in the 1970's, the salaries and bonuses that the board of directors gave themselves went crazy.
They didn't admit that the reason for their success was that they didn't reward workers! No.....it was that they were business geniuses!
a. And they used lots of the money to move more factories abroad. It's expensive...and risky. But they had lots of money.
b. And they used lots of the money to re-shape American politics. The workers lost interest in politics...in the NYC election for mayor, 11% of registered Democrats voted. ...so the rich took over.
They paid expensive lobbyists.
So a tiny part of the population, the wealthy, took over and made politics work for them.
c. Having won the lottery, the business community became hysterical. The result was the stock market bubble of the 1990's. That collapse was the beginning of our financial crisis.
d. But the rich had so much money to play with that the losses in the stock market meant nothing....the hysteria looked for another place to play: housing.
The same thing happened- in NYC there are lots of half completed buildings, because the builders couldn't sell them, or make the interest payments on loans.
The result of real estate crazy.
Summary:
The rich folks stole so much money from the workers that they behaved like Scrooge McDuck...throwing it over their heads, lighting cigars with Franklins,....
....they blew up the stock market....and, no satisfied with that...
...they caused the housing crisis!
Yeah....that's it!
Now, c'mon.....you Lefties agree with all of that......don't you?
