In this special post-Inauguration interview, Dr Richard Wolff explains how the naked oligarchy on display in Trump's inauguration and in his administration is not a contradiction, but a clear sign of a society hastening its own collapse under the weight of historic, unsustainable levels of inequality.

Trump's Billionaires Will Accelerate American Decline. Dr Richard Wolff Explains How
Jan 28, 2025 | On the campaign trail and beyond, Donald Trump and MAGA right have repeatedly presented themselves as the true representatives of America's beleaguered working class. And yet, like the Capitol rotunda on Inauguration Day, Trump's administration is filled with billionaires, mega-millionaires, and corporate oligarchs whose staggering wealth is increasing year after year while working people struggle to get by. How are people, voters and non-voters alike, supposed to square this seeming contradiction?
In this special post-Inauguration interview, Dr Richard Wolff explains how the naked oligarchy on display in Trump's inauguration and in his administration is not a contradiction, but a clear sign of a society hastening its own collapse under the weight of historic, unsustainable levels of inequality.

Dr Richard Wolff’s Perspective: Global Capitalism: The US Election and Trump 2.0 in Historical Perspective | November 2024
Why many Brits keep looking to the USA for economic leadership, why they keep drooling over all things American, is beyond any sane person’s comprehension. We were far better off as full members of the European Union than we will ever be clutching and clasping Trump’s apron strings! – © Mark Alexander

Richard Wolff: The Decline of the US Empire Is Shown by the Record High National & Corporate Debt
Monday, Nov 18, 2024 | The relative economic decline of the US and its allies (G7) versus China and its allies (BRICS) leads to (1) realignment of global trade and investment, (2) changed global politics and alliances, and (3) basic cultural shifts inside and among nations.
The political crises facing the United States at home and abroad hinge on this question: How will the US manage its decline?
The USA is sinking into the mire. Donnie baby hasn’t got a chance in hell of turning this sinking ship around! If anything, his policies will force the ship to sink further and more quickly! America’s position in the world as the world’s superpower is about to be usurped, I fear. Americans insist on living beyond their means. They insist on believing in their delusion of the “American Dream”. One can but wonder who will take over from the leadership of the “delinquent” USA! – © Mark Alexander

Richard Wolff: The Final Case Against Donald J. Trump
Dr Richard Worlff is a Marxist economist. He has a brilliant mind. However, the mere fact that I am posting this discussion on my blog should IN NO WAY be construed as an endorsement of Marxism. It is not an endorsement; I do not endorse it. I do, however, find Dr Richard Wolff a fascinating character and a man who is extremely intelligent and insightful. Do I agree with his take on everything discussed in this video? Certainly not! But, as my regular visitors should know by now, I do not post videos on this blog simply because I agree with everything discussed in them. Were I to adopt that strategy, I should find it very difficult to post ANYTHING!
As a person, I like to have my thinking challenged. If I think something is particularly good, insightful, or interesting, then I usually post it. Even if the video is controversial. In fact, a little controversy can stimulate one’s thinking. Controversy is to thinking what spice is the food! I hope that you enjoy the discussion. – © Mark Alexander

Economic Update : Fascism
No! I am NOT a fan of Marxism, but I am a fan of listening to the arguments from ALL sides. It is only if we give ALL sides a chance to air their views can we ever hope to solve our ever-mounting economic problems. Moreover, Dr Richard Wolff is a brilliant, Ivy-league-educated man, who always explains problems so clearly for all to understand. Do yourselves a favour and listen to what he has to say. Keep an open mind: He will surely enlighten you! – © Mark
