STUPID COMMIE, COMMIES LIKE THIS COST THE LIVES OF 100 MILLION PEOPLE IN THE LAST HUNDRED YEARS "CHASING UTOPIA". ANOTHER SATANIC IDIOT LOOKING TO CORAL LOW IQ HALFWITS INTO STEALING KINGDOMS THEY ARE TO LAZY TO CREATE ON THEIR OWN. THIS IS WHY COMMUNISM HAS NEVER CREATED A SOCIETY FROM THE GROUND UP. COMMIES LIKE THIS SHOULD TAKE THEIR DIRTY MONEY AND BUY UP SOME PROPERTY SOME WHERE IN THE WORLD, AND BUILD THEIR COMMUNIST UTOPIA FROM THE GROUND UP. THAT HAS NEVER HAPPENED BECAUSE COMMUNISM IS NOTHING BUT A THEFT RACKET RUN BY ORGANIZED CRIME. IT'S A CON GAME WHERE ANIMALS CONSPIRE TO HIJACK CIVILIZATIONS USUALLY CHRISTIAN CIVILIZATIONS THAT THEY ARE INCAPABLE OF CREATING THEMSELVES BECAUSE THEY ARE SO CORRUPT THEY WOULD KILL EACH OTHER IN THE PROCESS. JUST LIKE WHAT HAPPENED WITH STALIN WHO HAD TO BE POISONED AND KHRUSHCHEV WHO THEY CONSPIRED TO POISON. THEY ALL WANTED TO BE THE MAN IN CHARGE. THIS LOOSER IS RUNNING HIS INCREMENTAL STRATEGY TOWARD COMMUNISM. SELLING HIS THEFT RACKET ONE PIECE AT A TIME TO ENVELOP HIS TRUE AGENDA, AND HOPING THE DOPES IN THE ROOM DON'T FIGURE IT OUT.. BEFORE THIS IMBECILE THERE HAVE BEEN A THOUSAND MORE JUST LIKE HIM. LOSS OF RIGHTS, FAMINE, AND DEATH ALL CHASING UTOPIA. THIS MAN IS NO INTELLECTUAL HE IS SOMEBODY WHO THINKS SOCIETY IS MADE UP OF MORONS THAT HE CAN CON INTO DOING WHAT HE WANTS, SIMPLE. HE IS THE SOFT SPOKEN DICTATOR. IN AMERICA WE HAVE WELFARE RECIPIENTS WHO RECEIVE OVER 25,000 DOLLARS A YEAR WHO HAVE CONTRIBUTED NOTHING TO SOCIETY. IN THE FORMER USSR THE AVERAGE SALARY FOR A FACTORY WORKER WAS AROUND 1500 DOLLARS. RIGHT NOW IN COMMUNIST CHINA YOU CAN GET WORKERS FOR 80 DOLLARS A WEEK ALL DAY LONG. IN AMERICA WE HAVE WELFARE RECIPIENTS WHO MAKE OVER 6 TIMES THAT AMOUNT DOING NOTHING BUT WATCHING TELEVISION. THIS MAN THINKS THE PEOPLE SITTING IN THE ROOM ARE TOTAL IDIOTS. RODGER BALDWIN FOUNDER OF THE ACLU WAS A COMMUNIST. IN CAPITALIST AMERICA EVEN THE POOR OWN AUTOMOBILES, IN COMMUNIST COUNTRIES THEY RIDE BICYCLES . FOR A GLIMPSE AT WHAT HIS FUTURE WORLD WOULD LOOK LIKE, TAKE A LOOK AT NORTH AND SOUTH KOREA CASE CLOSED. DON'T EVER TURN OVER YOUR GUNS, YOUR RIGHTS, OR YOUR MONEY TO SCREWBALLS LIKE THIS.

Did he stop doing these? His lectures are awesome.
-
nice one,
-
what is your take on responsible capitalism?
-
I love this guy. He speaks directly to us and in our language. Richard Wolf is the best when it comes to dissecting capitalism and explaining communism. He makes it interesting and easy to understand. What he teaches should be taught in every high school and be a required course in college.

I love this guy! Not many economists dare to think outside the box, nor beyond the bottom line. Life is more than a giant abbacus of material possessions.
-
Mister Wolff, y do u use a European format for the dates of the recordings?
-
Very informative. Thankyou!
-
Richard run for president in 2020!!! Please!!!

beautiful

Good talk, in general, but the final remark about 'ukrainian fascism' is a disgusting piece of Kremlin propaganda. My thumb down.
-
How would revolution even be possible in a country like the United States? The simple difference in military technology - all the good stuff belongs to the elites.
-
No one has ever crawled over barbed wire or swam rivers to escape free market capitalism.............. no one..............ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

PLEASE TALK ABOUT THE ROJAVA REVOLUTION IN NORTH SYRIA!!
I think it is as close as we can get to true socialism. Democratic Confederalism is the name of the system which was "created" by Abdullah Ocelen AKA Apo. He is the head of the pkk and he serving a live sentence in Turkey. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE COVER IT. Thank you for all of this, it is all very eye opening to the Americans. -
I actually agree on a lot of the points you make on this video, but I do have one question. If capitalism is not all that great as you mention and it doesn't bring all the good things that it promised, then how come has the United States been so successful under this system? I know we have had our ups and downs and we make a lot of mistakes but we are still the number 1 nation in power. is it our military? what is it? I am honestly asking this question, I am not trying to defend capitalism because honestly I don't know much about topics like this.

hands down one of my top 5 fav RWolff lectures!!! #Degrowth #BreakFree2016 #KeepItInTheGround Cooperation spontaneously arises as one lets go of capitalism, an ecological, spiritual, and simple observation one can experimentally put to the test and are.

in the past fascism (germany as an example) used the nation and a pseudo-racial (because a german race doesn't exist) ideology of supremacy as line of demarcation against other nations. this ideology is necessary to glue the different social classes within the nation together and, at the same time, create an enemy image. people's rage must be canalised and directed to another nation, the scapegoat.
today, nationalism can't be used anymore, because the new imperial battle alliance is the nato. for this reason, "western values" (whatever this is, because japan is also a rather liberal so-called democracy) are the new battle call. -
Liberals should watch Ben Shapiro he always wins.
