Hey Rick - What's a Neoliberal?
12/8/2023
December 7, 2023
We start the show talking about Senator Chris Murphy’s statement that the Democratic Party needs a “firm break” from neoliberalism, and then Scott Paul (@ScottPaulAAM) of the Alliance for American Manufacturing tells us how those neoliberal policies hurt our economy and our national defense, making us all less safe.

Using the Market to Steal from Workers
12/5/2023
December 4, 2023
In this episode we discuss yet another way that corporate America is robbing us blind. It’s called a “stock buyback” and the CEO class loves them. Stock buybacks give the wealthy a way to steal from working people in order to further enrich themselves – denying us the fair wages and benefits we deserve in the process.
It’s theft, plain and simple. Download the episode for more.
