Chomsky Session 1.2 from Z Communications 2/27/09 Obama & Domestic Policy

[jeremybalfe]

These talks are so informative and enlightening. I love these sessions. I ordered all three DVDs through Znet.

His argument for "social security" is poor.

SS is the biggest Ponzi scheme we've ever seen.

Generally he spends too much time with pleas to emotion when he talks economics.

He's brilliant on foreign policy tho.

How is he appealing to emotion. I don't find him appealing to emotion anywhere. Maybe I don't know what appealing to emotion is, could you please tell me or quote him where he is doing so, but don't give me a dictionary definition. Are you sure that it is not instead you who just has a fixation on markets and you treat anything that goes against markets in a reactionary way unconsciously. I'm not being rude or trying to insult you, just trying to be honest.

He is so correct about the health care system and the drug companys. They can't do this in Europe. Prices are controlled and it makes a huge difference in the quality of life. I really believe that

that makes the crime so much less in Europe becasue people although they have less but are not desperate. America needs to catch up on this really.

I think this is a prime example of the old sayin' "I hope that doesn't come back and bite cha in the ass.." Globalization is comin' back and bitin' them in the ass.." or it's doin' exactly what they want it to do.. it was never a good idea and why wasn't I asked my opinion..?

[Marly61]

I can't believe the prices I paid for various medicines in the US vs France. Everything in the US was 5 to 10 times more expensive in the US. No wonder the rich are getting richier there and the average person poorer. But it is also the average persons fault for not creating political parties outside of the one party RepublicRats system.

Breath. Of. Fresh. Air. I'm writing my representative right now to support the Employee Free Choice Act.

[calvinjones]

thanks for the video

[juliaisafilmbuff123]

Love this!

[mitchrix31]

people who are confused about our system are right to look to chomsky since he has no interest except for academic and ethical interest.

[redstar666]

capitalism is ending. . .

[Congest]

Hopefully.

[CitizenCindy]

I wish. If only wishing could make it be.

[wilburnforce]

i wish. but where will we go from here?

[ginganz13]

LIke Chomsky has said - the western system has not got much to do with capitalism....

[KentAllard]

the cult of the neo-liberal has just had the curtain drawn back. Now what they're going to do is return to some level of state-management, without of course admitting any of it because that would look bad and an entire industry has been created to push it

[t0kt0k]

Hang in there Dr. Chomsky! You have a lot left to contribute and we need you most of all now that capitalism is ending.

[Chomskyan]

I saw him speak last night, he is still going strong.

I think people like us should step it up though. We can't all be Noam Chomskies, but we can all contribute to building a movement.
