Governments aren’t failing the working class because they can’t, they’re failing because they’ve handed power to oligarchs and vultures in the financial markets. They haven’t lost their monetary power. They’ve surrendered it. And the working class is being told to accept austerity while the financial elite feast on a system designed to serve them.

I love this clip where Michael Parenti points out capitalism requires poverty to function as the wealth of the elite is produced by the deprivation of the many. It uses poverty as punishment to maintain low wages and keep people afraid of losing their jobs.

Mainstream macroeconomics is essentially the weaponisation of fiscal deficit, trade deficit, and national debt. These three are the key macro variables that have been used by the mainstream economics gang to keep the real economy permanently in real deficit.

1. Austerity makes things worse Austerity destroys productive capacity and doesn’t even meet the goal of its advocates, which is to reduce deficits. Less economic activity means less tax income - meaning that the deficit is as likely to increase as to go down.

"It is natural for a liberal to speak of “democracy" in general; but a Marxist will never forget to ask: "for what class?"'" -Vladimir Lenin, The Proletarian Revolution and the Renegade Kautsky, 1918

Socialists don't transform government - they get transformed into ministers of capitalism as Rosa Luxemburg observed. AOC and the Squad are proof. Steve Grumbine discusses solutions outside of elections. Link to full ep in comment below 👇 #capitalism #AOC #elections
