On this week’s episode of Economic Update, Professor Wolff delivers updates on how 73% of U.S. credit card debt is needed for everyday purchases, the issues with Venezuelan oil, and MAGA splits as Trump panders to the voting masses at the expense of a few giant corporations. The second half features an interview with Geo Maher, author, educator, and activist, on the crisis in Venezuela and its long-term implications for the U.S. and the rest of the world.
Economics Professor Richard D. Wolff and guests discuss the current state of the economy, locally and globally. The program explores alternative ways to organize, markets, and government policies.
