#411 -- Capitalism vs. Reality, Part 2
Jan. 16, 2016, 10:29 a.m.
Political scientist Michael Parenti refutes the claim that the "free enterprise system" (capitalism) promotes democracy and prosperity.
Part 2 focuses on prosperity. Drawing on the past 150 years of US history, Parenti shows that capitalism does not increase general prosperity. In fact it has brought regular recessions and depressions to ordinary citizens. Not "free enterprise" but massive government spending finally lifted America out of the depression of the 1920s and 1930s.
#728 - Globalizing The Occupation
Jan. 16, 2016, 6 a.m.
"You have to treat the public as potential terrorists - not as citizens", says Jeff Halper, describing the logic of the endgame of global capitalism, which he describes in his book as a "Global War Against The People". Pointing to its huge security-industrial-intelligence complex, he looks at Israel as a leader in this new economy. By exploiting the Palestinians as a resource, its research into methods of controlling a subject population has assisted in the development of weapons technologies such as drones and nanobots. In our second hour, we read a paper which looks at social structures and linguistic frames which are being rolled out to support hegemony worldwide by deliberately blurring the distinctions between violent terrorism and non-violent dissent.

This week's Global Research News Hour takes a close look at the volatility that has gripped the Chinese Stock Markets in the first two weeks of 2016 and attempts to place them in a broader global economic and geopolitical context.
In the first half hour, we hear from Radhika Desai, Professor at the Department of Political Studies at the University of Manitoba and Director of the Geopolitical Economy Research Group at that institution. Professor Desai dismisses the Western Press's descriptions of the stock turmoil as a calamity and points to the fundamental strengths of the Chinese economy, as well as the roles of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank and the One Belt One Road strategies in posing a challenge to the dominance of the Neo-Liberal model.
In the second half hour we hear from Jack Rasmus. He is a professor of economics and politics at St. Mary's College in California. He has a new book out - âSystemic Fragility in the Global Economy.â Rasmus explains the roots of the turmoil in Chinese Markets, factoring in the liquidity generated by central banks, massive debts, currency devaluations and financial asset versus real asset investments in recent years. Professor Rasmus views the current crises facing emerging markets is merely a new form of the crisis that struck the US and North Atlantic countries in the wake of the Sub-Prime Mortgage meltdown in 2008-2009.
Supreme Court on Challenge to Survival of Public Sector Unions
Jan. 15, 2016, 4:25 p.m.
U.S. Supreme Court Heard Challenge to Bread and Butter Survival of Public Sector Unions
with
Caroline Fredrickson, President American Constitution Society for Law and Policy
and
Joe Burns, Labor Lawyer and Author, Strike Back: Using the Militant Tactics of Labor's Past to Reignite Public Sector Unionism Today
On Jan.11th, the U.S. Supreme Court considered a conservative legal challenge targeting public sector unions when the justices take up a case brought by non-union teachers who object to having to pay for collective bargaining rights. The dispute pits 10 public school teachers and the Christian Educators Assn International against the California Teachers Assn., a union with 325,000 members and a history of backing liberal political causes. Unions that are certified to represent a group of employees are legally compelled to represent all employees in that unit, which means bargaining on behalf of all the workers for health care and other benefits, higher wages and representing them in grievances to adjudicate their rights against their employers. The dues pay for unions to be able to advocate for services to its members and to administratively function as an organization. This court challenge seeks a decision that would economically starve the public workers organizations affecting their ability to advocate for their members individual economic benefits and their political rights as workers.
