On today’s show:
With the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election 8 days away, Professor Richard Wolff explores the shared refusal of both major candidates and their parties to face and debate solutions to the major problems facing U.S. capitalism in 2024: (1) inequality, (2) instability, and (3) a declining empire. Instead, we are witnessing both Trump and Harris compete to be the “cheerleader in chief” for capitalism.
Missing from the discourse is a genuine opposition party that might dare to offer an alternative non-capitalist vision and solution to the system’s deepening problems.
