The first talk of 2012 by the social critic and noted author Michael Parenti fit perfectly into the debates of the time, that of the One versus the 99% and the finally no longer taboo question: What exactly is CAPITALISM?
Parenti is debunking some of the myths of capitalism: That it creates jobs, peace, democracy and wealth.
