Wolff Responds: "Iran!: Underappreciated Aspects" Dated March 11, 2026

#WolffBites: Trump wants $200 billion more for Iran war. That exceeds a full year of Trump's tariff receipts. Will mean big gov't budget deficit this year plus higher gov't debt to be repaid with our future taxes. nytimes.com/2026/03/19/wor…

#WolffBites: US has worst maternal death record in the industrial world. Situation worsened in recent decades. Yet another cost of having a failed profit-profit-driven healthcare system.

#WolffBites: Fed + Trump cut bank regulations to up bank profits by $ billions. Despite war and declining jobs, rising inflation risks, US gov't never stops serving big capitalists. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Wolff Responds: "US & Europe: A Messy Divorce" Dated March 18, 2026

#WolffBites: A changed world economy frustrated (1) collective West-Ukraine war against Russia and (2) US-Israel war on Iran. Will that lesson be learned?

#WolffBites: Yet another drug company (this time GSK) puts its profits ahead of healthcare (this time for asthmatic children). Healthcare is a social good: should not be left hostage to private profiteering. cnn.com/2026/03/16/hea…

#WolffBites: Now that U.S. capitalists can no longer afford to buy their employees’ loyalties, off comes the system’s democratic masks—its “traditional” major-party politics. Trumpist authoritarianism results from that affordability crisis.

#WolffBites: Italy's Meloni like Spain will NOT join US/Israel war on Iran. That makes US side a "Coalition of the Unraveling." France's Macron supports the US while the UK waffles. facebook.com/techtimespage/…

#WolffBites: World Wars 1 and 2 destroyed many millions of people. The warring nations' employers led armed employees to war. The same employer-employee system keeps bringing "forever wars." Until people everywhere realize its the system that is the problem wars will never end...

#WolffBites: Putin offered Trump several ways to end the Iran war. Trump rejected them. Evidence that war's distraction for the public (away from poor US economy and the Epstein horrors) is what keep's war going? #story3" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">axios.com/newsletters/ax…

#WolffBites: Trump removes sanctions on Russia. Trump's Iran war ups global oil prices so Russia  gains as world's largest oil exporter. One common feature of empire decline: how you solve one problem worsens another. How decline happens. nytimes.com/2026/03/12/us/…?

#WolffBites: Mega CEO Zuckerberg just bought a $170 million home: 9 bedrooms, 11.5 baths, "secret" library, wellness gym, salon and massage room, jazz lounge, and 60-foot pool. We pay, they play. foxbusiness.com/real-estate/ma…

#WolffBites: Global economic shifts: US tries tariffs to slow its decline, China outcompetes the west. Caught in middle VW profits collapse, plans to lay off 50,000, and cancels planned US plant. The facts accumulate what the west's leaders deny. reuters.com/world/china/vo…
