Progressive political scientist MICHAEL PARENTI's unscripted reflections. This week: insightful commentary on capitalism, socialism, public utilities, popular rebellion, plutocrats in general, the Waltons in particular, Occupy Wall Street, and the monetary system.
Plus a brief recorded essay by Parenti from 2005--"Welfare for the Wealthy"--and a relevant song by Monty Python's Flying Circus.
Recorded October 6, 2015 in Springfield, Illinois. This installment of NWN features selections from the Q&A following a talk by Parenti ("Capitalism vs. Reality"). The original recording--which I have edited--is courtesy of the Unifersity of Illinois at Springfield and Dale Lehman/WZRD (via radio4all.net). Many thanks.
