Truthout is an indispensable resource for activists, movement leaders and workers everywhere. Please make this work possible with a quick donation.
This episode provides updates on economics vs. the “free press,” Nevada vs. public education and bikes displacing cars in Europe. We also respond to listeners’ questions on the economics of closed ACA health co-ops and on inflation’s dangers and impacts. Finally, we have major discussions on the Massachusetts Senate bill to tax rich universities and answering the question: “What is Capitalism?”
