Profit, Austerity and Criticizing the System
Updates on profit-driven scandals (horsemeat in Europe and fish in US); how long we work, Correa’s anti-austerity victory in Ecuador, and getting public benefits for public investment in sports stadiums. Major analyses of “internship” in US business and the basic contribution of Marxian economics. Description of Colorado worker self-directed enterprise and response to listeners on (a) mutual decision-making between residential communities and worker coops’ and (b) critique of Marxian debates on crisis causes.
