Ep. 5: Never Be Fooled by Misleading Headlines Again

In the penultimate episode of Informal Economics, Eric Mason is back to analyze some recent major Economics News to show how uniformed reporting can distort what the actual data is showing. Eric gives us three steps to help us see through the sensationalized headlines: line up incentives, focus on the real variables of the data and seek clarity. He then walks us through two real world examples, including the “crisis” in Argentina and the DOJ’s lawsuit against Apple to show us how to apply the concepts. Eric fields a listener question about a BTC strategic reserve before sharing some of his favorite sources for unbiased reporting

WINGS #20-24 Homecare in Kenya28_35_128mbps

Diana Wanyonyi interviews EDEL WAFULA (an independent home-based caregiver do young children) and LUCY MINAYO (a lawyer who served as the first Director of NurtureFirst). Wafula describes her work with the children and how she got into the field. NurtureFirst, formerly Home-Based Childcare, aspires to be a global resource and advocacy organization for childcare systems that help and support care of children in homes, whether the child’s own home or that of the caregiver. Wafula emphasizes the essential nature of home-based care—and its invisibility and minuscule remuneration as a form of work. She notes that Kenya’s government aims to replace charitable institutions with more home- and family-based childcare.

Veterans for Peace Convention 2024 - The Rising Multipolar World

A Zoom webinar from the Veterans for Peace 2024 convention (August 16 -18), presented here with their permission. From the organizers: After the Cold War, the US neocon elite planed to dominate the world. The US attacked and wrecked multiple nations in the Balkans, Central Asia, Africa, and elsewhere. But China continued its peaceful development and is now helping these nations develop and/or recover. The US considers this alter-development a threat, and now China, Russia, and its allies have been designated "revisionist powers"--official enemies– and our Washington elite are attacking, sanctioning, & threatening everyone who will not join us against China and the rising multi-polar global south. ​ US Secretary of Defense Mark Esper signed a secret order designating the US to be in "active combat with China." Kurt Campbell, Deputy Secretary of State, has threatened to unleash "A magnificent symphony of death." General Minihan and Admiral Davidson expect war in 2025 and 2027, respectively. Will the US trigger global war for hegemony, or go gently into that good night? The planet is at stake. ​ Michael Wong is the vice president of Veterans for Peace, San Francisco chapter 69, serves on the VFP National Board of Directors, is a past national vice president of VFP, and is one of two co-ordinators of the VFP China Working Group. He is published in the book, “Veterans of War, Veterans of Peace,” edited by Maxine Hong Kingston, and appears in the documentary, “Sir! No Sir!” about the GI resistance movement to the American war in Viet Nam. He is a retired social worker with a Master of Social Work degree. ​ Matt Hoh is the Associate Director of the Eisenhower Media Network, an organization of expert former military, intelligence and civilian national security officials who seek to reach broad, cross-partisan audiences in diverse media outlets and among the American people – who increasingly sense that U.S. foreign policy today is not making them, or the world, safer. Matt is a former Marine Corps captain, Afghanistan State Department officer, a disabled Iraq War veteran and is a Senior Fellow Emeritus with the Center for International Policy. Matt has been a prolific writer and speaker about issues of war and peace. Matt serves on the advisory boards of many peace organizations including Veterans for Peace and World Beyond War and is an associate member of Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity. Ken Hammond is a professor at New Mexico State University specializing in China and East Asia. He spent ten years living and studying in China, is fluent in Mandarin, holds a B.A. in History & Political Science from Kent State University, and a Ph.D. in History & East Asian Languages from Harvard University. He is the author of several books and courses, and his latest book is "China's Revolution and the Quest for a Socialist Future," published by 1804 Books. ​ K.J. Noh is a peace activist, journalist, and scholar specializing in the geopolitics of the Asian continent. He writes for Asia Times, Counterpunch, Dissident Voice, and other publications. He is special correspondent for KPFA Flashpoints on the Pivot to Asia, the Koreas, and the Pacific. KJ Noh is a South Korean Army veteran and a member of Veterans For Peace and Pivot To Peace.

We demonstrate how Nike is really rather edgeless, we feature Part 2 of the Thunderbolt Prison Project, (this week’s segment is called ‘Templates of Oppression’) and for the feature piece we dare to dream the impossible dream. Hope springs ever eternal — even if rarely here in the Thunderbolt. Listen with extreme caution.

How Does Voter Suppression Look? / The Police Killing of Victoria Lee

In the first half of today’s show, we discuss the many forms that voter suppression initiatives can take. We use one of our favorite lawyers and a former guest on our show, Qasim Rashid to help us make the point that voting is sacred, and there are lots of folks who would rather we didn’t exercise our right so they can more easily shape the country for their benefit. In the second part of the show, we discuss a violent police interaction where a woman—Victoria Lee—suffering from a mental health crisis lost her life at the hands of the police. We examine the broken system that claimed the life of another person who could have been saved. Our Way Black History Fact highlights some of the many claims of racism directed toward Donald Trump over the years.

Data Centers lack the Electric Power for Artificial Intelligence. A new Law, signed by Biden, promotes Nuclear Power

On June 18, 2024, the US Congress passed the misnamed “Advance Act” that will provide electric power to data-centers. The Advance Act aims to expedite the development of next generation nuclear reactors and pays to support aging ones. It directs the Department of Energy to reduce regulatory cost for advanced reactors and provides deployment incentives. Joe Biden signed the Advance Act into law on July 9, 2024. All this while so-called modern societies have not yet cleaned up the damaged nuclear reactors at Fukushima, Chernobyl and Three Mile Island. And the so-called “spent” highly radioactive nuclear fuel is still piling up at the power plants. With one exception, Onkalo in Finland, no permanent deposits for nuclear waste have been built anywhere - even though the waste needs to remain safe for 100,000 years. The reason so many of us have not even heard about the Advance Act is that only two Senators voted against it: Bernie Sanders and Ed Markey (88 to 2). And in the House the vote was 393 to 13. There was one principled voice - and it belongs to Rashida Tlaib from Michigan. She said: “I voted present in rejection of this ridiculous decision to tie the re-authorization of vital firefighting programs for our communities together with poison pills that undermine nuclear safety …” This program contains four clips: On August 18, 2024 the Financial Times published an article entitled: AI Power Demand Could Stifle Industry’s Growth - On July 28, 2024, CNBC published a film on YouTube under the title: How The Massive Power Draw Of Generative AI Is Overtaxing Our Grid. And even if we generate enough power, our ageing grid is increasingly unable to handle transmitting the power to where it’s needed. And a little stronger in the wording: the Synapse channel on YouTube ran a mini-documentary entitled: The Answer to AI’s Insane power needs and … published on May 8, 2024. And in closing: On June 21, 2024, The Washington Post published an article entitled: AI is exhausting the power grid. Tech firms are seeking a miracle solution. Come back for more programming on Artificial Intelligence and Nuclear Power when TUC Radio returns. DATE: June and July/2024
