The Big Picture Interview: Economist Dr. Richard Wolff, Capitalism's Crisis Deepens: Essays on the Global Economic Meltdown, joins Thom. The Federal Reserve is set to announce tomorrow whether it will raise interest rates now or wait until after the election. Is this decision about economics or about holding off the next crash until the most politically convenient point possible?

Dr. Wolf is great, glad to see him on this show & his videos on YouTube. All uneducated Trumpites should be forced to listen to the good doctor.

Capitalism works for you if you are wealthy. Professor Wolf is right, we need workplace democracy. We need to plan & organise what we will produce, when, how and why. Socialism might work. Organising all aspects of your life just on blind market forces is not such a good idea.

Mr. Wolff is brilliant, but surprises me that he leaves out the possible conflict of interest when the banks influence the decision of the FED. The way I see it is that the banks are actually the FED. And if they control the $ they control the country.

Interest rates near zero for banks/corporations to borrow, but the little guy pays 12% or more for a credit card.
-
A sudden rise in prices? Has this guy been anywhere near a grocery store in the last ten years? Prices have been marching upward the whole time.
-
The only way they could save capitalism would be the green economy...but i dont think it should be saved, capitalism that is.

"Rite ON Prof !"

Love economist Richard Wolff!❤️

"Negative interest rate" is not the bank paying people to borrow money, but you paying the bank to deposit and hold your money. Interest is still charged by the bank when it lends money.

I suspect that you are more liar than ignorant fool. The Federal Reserve is in fact the Third Bank of America. The First and Second were rejected by the people. The Bankers who work within the CLASS SYSTEM are the USURY purveyors for the hypocrites at the VATICAN which controls both CAPITALISM and COMMUNISM.
The solution is the MERIT SYSTEM and the arrest of the hypocrites who swear to have your best interests at heart.
How? Popular Uprising and Declaration of Sovereignty for Americans. I mean all who live in North, Central, and South America!!!

Who remembers when this asshole, joking, called Hillary Clinton, a "Communist"?
-
Wolff is a heavyweight, although the guests he has on his show are utterly clueless as to why the working class despises liberals. I prefer Michael Hudson, who is actually Leon Trotsky's godson.

I wish Professor Wolff would come out and endorse a resource based economy like the kind The Zeitgeist Movement advocates.
