Capitalism Equals Class Warfare

from Economic Update with Richard D. Wolff Hosted by DemocracyAtWork.info, Inc.

The totality of today's Economic Update is devoted to exploring (1) the multiple ways that capitalism imposes class warfare on its people, and (2) how class warfare shapes the capitalist system's impact on employers and employees. Specific examples show (1) what kind of class struggle is involved in tariffs such as those imposed by Trump, (2) how inflation exemplifies class war, and (3) how unemployment reflects and includes class war. A question addressed throughout today's program is "Why establish and maintain an economic system that produces and reproduces class war across its history?” The d@w Team Economic Update with Richard D.
