1. 43:19 ....and they have Cultural Marxism and mass immigration of people with intolerant religion...
   ...but workers cooperatives is awsome idea...
2. OH MY GOD, 94% of all positions were temporary? I'm sure most of us then UNDERSTAND what it must feel like. I've worked through a lot of Temp or Contractor companies, some even on the side of others! (like freaking Uber...). Most offer simply ZERO BENIFITS. Period. They also are attractive to employers because there's no "firing" or "lay off" required, where they'd be paying unemployment. Instead, you just go home when they call your contractor company and ask to cease the service. That's why employers LOVE contractors. Usually most contractors are also drug tested and those tests and paid for the by the contract company, which usually is anywhere from 3,000 to 6,000 dollars, depending on if it's tongue saliva or hair, or just urine tests. This is another savings. Many contractor company revenue models include charging the client employer the full rate, say, 18 an hour. The same rate as a regular worker if hired on directly with the client. You, the contractor however, will only see 13. They pocket the rest, the employer doesn't know the difference in payroll and saves money incase employment needs to be cut, and doesn't lose several thousands from the onboarding cost.

   The year of 2017 must be the start when rational humans all over this ever shrinking World must organize and start and mount the offensive on the crazy white-genocide-endorsing far-left. If Western Culture & Democracy is to survive this century, this is imperative. One century after the Bolsheviks threatened to destroy Western Civilization in 1917 and purge everyone who stood in their way, the generational struggle with insanity has come to Europe's and America's door step again, this time in the form of a new peculiar 'Molotov-Ribbentrop like' pact, a fragile Globalist-Islamist-Marxists alliance. The principle of divide and conquer must be applied in order to pit them against one another and destroy them. The same old strategy - under the guise of noble ideals and carving out an egalitarian society, they have constructed their justification for their agenda. Greedy, insane, unhinged, frenzied and power hungry marxists, muslims and globalists alike are using ideals and the suffering of people to cast us back into the era of mass extermination that killed over 100 million people. This cannot happen!
4. The banks are all very sorry about (being caught at) what they were doing & promise never to do it again. Problem solved?
5. thank you Professor wolff!
6. 2017 is almost here, and nothing changed in our lives, nothing we can show to our children, nothing to be proud of from the year passing us. US citizens are still in a big mess, and have no idea HOW to get out of this ill corrupt system. Many countries movements realized what need to be done, and offer solutions, to their own situation. We are still living in an illusion that Americans are greedy capitalists who want to live as such, even if the system do not work for them.
   
   Today, and as populists start to raise, many billionaires made money that enough to solve most of the planet problems!!

   I HOPE Americans will WAKE UP soon, before it is too late, and make the right choices.

8. You are drawing quite abit of attention these days professor,people like what you have to say(well most do) but there will always be those who find left wing Politcs unthinkable,unpatriotic,perhaps they are millionaires worried about losing their ill gotten fortunes but more likely they are part of 50 year plan to dumb down the U.S. Educational System,see you in 2017
   and just to really put the cherry on the cake of what has been a monster rollercoaster of a year George Michael died on Christmas Day RIP George,another great talent gone before his time.
9. video??
10. Thank you for your insight and rational lectures, professor Wolff. Also, for the droll comments that elicit more belly laughs from me, than Lee Camp (love him), or others who try to be funny, while being critical of government.
11. Donald trump can't be trusted anymore than Hilary Clinton
12. If people can't see this is the reality in our country then your an absolute moron.
13. Seems to me, you can have the tpp without really HAVING the tpp. When they start saying the tpp is dead, I start to worry even more.
14. I voted for Dr. Jill Stein. Really don't know what else to say except maybe Happy Holidays. I'm celebrating Festivus for the next four cycles. lol \m/
15. Nuclear Weapons are Ungodly weapons. Americans are war criminals and against god with their expanding of their nuclear weapons with smaller easier to use nuclear weapons. Using these weapons will create a nuclear winter where no crops will grow for one or two decades. All life on earth will parish.
16. thank you very much professor Wolff.
17. 2nd - If colleges need to depend on breaking the law to get tuition $$ , then those colleges deserve to go bankrupt. Also, the administration needs to go to prison !
18. 1st - Trump DID save 800 jobs BEFORE Becoming President. Obama kicked 1 million jobs/workers out of our economy.
19. Preach
20. Proff. Wolff: I would greatly appreciate if you could analyze the contribution and effect on the American economy beginning during World War II by importing Mexican labor to substitute American workers at war, and followed by cheap illegal labor to the present year. according to Trump, that cheap labor and tax contribution must leave.
