1. Good interview.

In before....

Chomsky is a linguist not an economist.

Chomsky hates Obama.

Etc....

3. He sees through the rhetoric vs. action. nt

5. Chomsky is also a very smart person and honest.

He has consistently been correct and honest (I do not know about "hating Obama", he does hate the vast inequalities in our American system) about fascism in America.

I have listened to and read dozens of political analysis' by Chomsky and I have never heard him say he hates Obama. He has mentioned the vast difference between candidate-vs-president Obama. This difference is obvious in the attempt (it has been introduced in the senate) to "fast track" the TPP. If there is no revolution soon, we are screwed.....Bernie Sanders can bring a non-violent, paradigm shift if we (the majority) want him to.

2. He's right in that the concept of the TPP is about protectionism and not free trade.

Protective of the transnational corporations and monopolistic interests who are writing it in secret.

4. They're invited in to shape it, like the bankers were for the bailout. Fox, guard the

henhouse.

Why wonder about the results

6. He's a bit of a Truther

as in, looking for truth and not accepting dogma.
