Cheat, Lie Steal: Michael Hudson on the Capitalist Way

Were living in a time of economic babble, where politicians and economists throw out words like reform, privatize, and austerity to prop up corrupt capitalist opportunists. So says our guest this week, economist Michael Hudson, author of J is for Junk Economics. Plus, a report from Diverse Filmmakers Alliance on the Yemeni bodega workers who went on strike in New York to protest the Muslim Ban. And Lauras FWord on why Donald Trumps new budget isnt about cuts its about conversions. The budget wants to convert public dollars into private funding for military research and spending, for the only government apparatus that never gets audited.
