1. Rising Support for Socialism A Fox News survey shows 38% of voters believe moving toward socialism would be a good thing, the highest level recorded. Despite that, 61% still view socialism negatively. 2. Declining Confidence in Capitalism Voters are split on whether capitalism is working: 50% say capitalism works well 49% say it works poorly This divide is presented as a driver of interest in socialist ideas. 3. Narrative on Left-Leaning Politics Left‑leaning politicians (e.g., AOC) convince voters that: America is fundamentally flawed, Capitalism disadvantages them, And inequality is due to systemic injustice, not personal choices. 4. Personal Responsibility vs. System Blame A major theme is that individual work ethic determines success. The document argues that some people blame “the system” instead of acknowledging personal decisions like: poor work habits, substance abuse, lack of effort, or educational decisions. 5. Political Strategy and Voter Dependency The author claims the Democratic Party maintains power by: Encouraging reliance on government benefits, Using “free stuff” to secure votes, Keeping people in poverty cycles instead of enabling upward mobility. 6. Trump’s Threat to the Democratic Base The text argues Democrats targeted Trump politically because: He was reducing minority unemployment to record lows, Potentially shifting traditional Democratic voting blocs, COVID‑19 disrupted that progress and altered political dynamics. 7. Education as a Control Mechanism: Democratic-led cities have failing school systems, Poor education ensures future dependency on government, Empowered, well‑educated children are more likely to become politically independent. 8. Government Programs as Leverage Policies such as Obamacare are described as tools for political control by making voters fear losing essential services.

No other phenomenon has shaped human history as decisively as capitalism. It structures how we live and work, how we think about ourselves and others, how we organize our politics. But is capitalism what you think it is? It's rooted in the ideas of private property, self-interest and profit — but it is dependent on the rule of law and state support. We hear the story of capitalism.

It's Fun Day Monday on The Majority Report   On today's program:   The U.S. struck oil facilities around Tehran, Iran, an attack that has triggered an environmental disaster. With massive fuel depots burning, rain mixed with soot and petroleum residue is now falling over the city, leaving a toxic, oily film across streets, buildings, and vehicles. After Donald Trump called for Iran's "unconditional surrender," White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt clarified that the term simply means whatever Trump says it means. Trump takes to Truth Social to claim to essentially claim victory in Iran in a quintessential confused post from the president. Professor Clara Mattei joins the program to discuss her new book Escape from Capitalism: An Intervention. Clara is a professor of Economics at the University of Tulsa and the founder of Forum for Real Economic Emancipation (FREE). For more from Mattei, check the FREE YouTube channel.   In the Fun Half:   Senator Lindsey Graham is on a Fox News morning show still drunk from celebrating a new war as he shouts for Trump to invade Cuba next.   Christian fundamentalist, Senator Kevin Cramer (R-ND) says we have a 'biblical responsibility' to Israel.   Jake Tapper tells Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) that if he votes against $50 billion in funds for operations in Iran than it will be cast as a vote against the troops.   Ben Shapiro's eyebrows are exploding.   Olivia Reingold reports on tweets that Mayor Mamdani's wife liked.   all that and more   To connect and organize with your local ICE rapid response team visit ICERRT.com The Congress switchboard number is (202) 224-3121.

Nearly all of us on Earth live within a ‘nation-state'. Nation-states are an invisible and seemingly inevitable and eternal part of the infrastructure that forms our society: the water we swim in. Rarely do we pause to consider how this global system of nation-states came into being, and what might replace it after its gone. […]

The US military is changing shape: it's increasingly high-tech, intelligence led, and focused on assassinations. In short, the Israeli model. And the changing shape of war means changing flows of money and power. The primes, which have dominated the military industrial for decades, now face competition from Silicon Valley companies like Palantir and Anduril. But […]

** We'll discuss this episode on Tuesday, March 10th (8 pm ET/5 pm PT) in our online community gathering, Macro ‘n Chill. We've invited Erald Kolasi to join us. So bring your questions. Register here: https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/hvkv5uyKQkG8DvgUMCckcwErald Kolasi is back to attack the bourgeois narrative on immigration, which reduces it to a series of individual choices. He and Steve dig into the material roots of migration, showing how empire, land theft, war, labor exploitation, and capitalist crisis have shaped global migration flows for centuries.They ground the discussion in Wallerstein's world-systems theory, defining an empire not by its internal politics but by its extractive external relations, and trace the concrete historical processes of this extraction. The "migration boomerang" from US destabilization in Guatemala, Nicaragua, and El Salvador – driven by the needs of capital like the United Fruit Company – demonstrates the dialectic in action.The empire's domination creates the displaced peoples it then scapegoats to divide the working class. Erald connects this to the long arc of capitalist development, from the Atlantic slave system to the prison-industrial complex, showing how the ruling class has always used race and nationality to prevent united class consciousness.With the MMT lens, Steve explains that this is directly tied to how a Federal Job Guarantee would shatter this dynamic by eliminating the "reserve army of labor" and the power of capital to discipline workers.Erald Kolasi is a writer and researcher focusing on the nexus between energy, technology, economics, complex systems, and ecological dynamics. His book, The Physics of Capitalism, came out from Monthly Review Press in February 2025. He received his PhD in Physics from George Mason University in 2016.

Chris Markowski discusses the importance of financial truth and transparency in the face of market volatility and manipulation. He emphasizes the concept of anti-fragility in investments, advocating for a strong foundational approach to portfolio management. Markowski warns against the dangers of market manipulation and the need for investors to remain vigilant. He also addresses the realities of capitalism and the importance of managing debt effectively to achieve financial health.

Simon Sinek drops a truth early that most people are not prepared to hear: income inequality is a greater social threat than AI or another pandemic, and history shows exactly where that kind of imbalance leads. He connects that global tension directly to what is happening inside your own relationships, because the same failure to listen, the same refusal to co-create, shows up at the kitchen table and in the boardroom. Simon challenges the idea that vulnerability means broadcasting your emotions online, arguing that true safety comes only when you sit across from someone you trust and say the hard thing out loud. He lays out a simple reframe for capitalism itself, one built around purpose first, people second, and profit third, and shows how that same hierarchy applies to how you show up at work and at home. Walk away from this conversation with a clearer picture of who you actually work for and why getting that answer right changes everything. Simon's books: Leaders Eat Last: Why Some Teams Pull Together and Others Don't Together Is Better: A Little Book of Inspiration Find Your Why: A Practical Guide for Discovering Purpose for You and Your Team The Infinite Game Start with Why 15th Anniversary Edition: How Great Leaders Inspire Everyone to Take Action In this episode you will: Learn why broadcasting vulnerability online gives you likes but not the safety you are actually looking for, and what real vulnerability requires. Discover why the metrics you use to measure a good day, productivity, followers, titles, are actively working against your sense of worth and what to track instead. Understand how to co-create boundaries in relationships and at work so both sides feel heard rather than managed. Recognize the social ripples that fear creates around AI and economic inequality so you can respond thoughtfully rather than react from panic. Reframe what it means to live a life of service, whether you lead a company, a team, or just show up daily for the people around you.

Standardizing Empire: The US Military, Korea, and the Origins of Military-Industrial Capitalism (U Pennsylvania Press, 2026) by Dr. Patrick Chung traces the origins of today's United States-led capitalist world economy. The nation's foreign policy during the Cold War saw two unprecedented developments: the continuous global deployment of US soldiers and the creation of a permanent worldwide military base network. In the process, the US military came to control the flow of billions of dollars, large-scale construction projects at home and abroad, the purchase of countless goods and services, and the employment of millions of soldiers and workers. In other words, the Cold War US military became the world's leading economic actor.To illuminate the political and economic consequences of the US military's globalization, Dr. Chung focuses on its activities in South Korea between the Korean and Vietnam Wars. Chung shows how the Korean War and the subsequent militarization of South Korea became an important site for the spread of a new economic system, which he calls military-industrial capitalism. Sustained by providing the infrastructure and materials for the US military's globalization, military-industrial capitalism influenced the development of governments, corporations, and workers throughout the US-led “free world.” As military-industrial capitalism expanded, more of the world depended on the physical and administrative standards used by the US military. Ironically, the creation of a globalized economy facilitated both South Korea's “economic miracle” and the decline of US industrial might.To clarify how these broader developments transformed everyday life in South Korea and around the world, Standardizing Empire explores three of South Korea's leading multinational corporations today: shipping company Hanjin, steelmaker POSCO, and car manufacturer Hyundai. These case studies not only trace the companies' early ties to the US military but also explain how they came to produce, sell, and employ workers worldwide, including in the United States. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Jon Hartley and Jim Esposito discuss Jim's beginnings, his career in senior roles at Goldman Sachs in New York and London, and moving to Miami to run one of the world's largest broker-dealer and market makers, Citadel Securities. They also discuss the rising role Miami is playing in global capital markets (becoming “Wall Street South”) with Citadel's moving its headquarters there, ongoing trends in the economy, and the rising role of AI in finance and business. Recorded on February 27, 2026. ABOUT THE SERIES Each episode of Capitalism and Freedom in the 21st Century, a video podcast series and the official podcast of the Hoover Economic Policy Working Group, focuses on getting into the weeds of economics, finance, and public policy on important current topics through one-on-one interviews. Host Jon Hartley asks guests about their main ideas and contributions to academic research and policy. The podcast is titled after Milton Friedman‘s famous 1962 bestselling book Capitalism and Freedom, which after 60 years, remains prescient from its focus on various topics which are now at the forefront of economic debates, such as monetary policy and inflation, fiscal policy, occupational licensing, education vouchers, income share agreements, the distribution of income, and negative income taxes, among many other topics.

Standardizing Empire: The US Military, Korea, and the Origins of Military-Industrial Capitalism (U Pennsylvania Press, 2026) by Dr. Patrick Chung traces the origins of today's United States-led capitalist world economy. The nation's foreign policy during the Cold War saw two unprecedented developments: the continuous global deployment of US soldiers and the creation of a permanent worldwide military base network. In the process, the US military came to control the flow of billions of dollars, large-scale construction projects at home and abroad, the purchase of countless goods and services, and the employment of millions of soldiers and workers. In other words, the Cold War US military became the world's leading economic actor.To illuminate the political and economic consequences of the US military's globalization, Dr. Chung focuses on its activities in South Korea between the Korean and Vietnam Wars. Chung shows how the Korean War and the subsequent militarization of South Korea became an important site for the spread of a new economic system, which he calls military-industrial capitalism. Sustained by providing the infrastructure and materials for the US military's globalization, military-industrial capitalism influenced the development of governments, corporations, and workers throughout the US-led “free world.” As military-industrial capitalism expanded, more of the world depended on the physical and administrative standards used by the US military. Ironically, the creation of a globalized economy facilitated both South Korea's “economic miracle” and the decline of US industrial might.To clarify how these broader developments transformed everyday life in South Korea and around the world, Standardizing Empire explores three of South Korea's leading multinational corporations today: shipping company Hanjin, steelmaker POSCO, and car manufacturer Hyundai. These case studies not only trace the companies' early ties to the US military but also explain how they came to produce, sell, and employ workers worldwide, including in the United States.

Today we meet EWP adjunct faculty Suryamayi Aswini Clarence-Smith to explore her work in Utopian studies, shaped by her upbringing in Auroville and her roots in Integral Yoga. We discuss integral approaches to education and her CIIS course, Prefiguring Utopia, which asks what a utopian learning experience might look like. We discuss the limits of rational teleology in utopian praxis and the importance of integral frameworks, like the Integral Yoga of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother, that emphasize the complementarity of multiple ways of knowing, harmonizing the planes and parts of the self, necessary to support collective transformation. The conversation also explores the scholar-practitioner as a site of transformation, and she shares a little about her course at CIIS, Awareness Through the Body, which guides students in exploring embodiment and contemplation, experimenting with their physical and psychic constitution, and we discuss this as a practice of cultivating conditions for transformative experiences grounded in revolutionary, evolutionary, and utopian ideals. Book - Prefiguring Utopia: The Auroville Experiment Book Talk - here Dr. Suryamayi Clarence-Smith is an award-winning scholar, educator and facilitator based in Auroville, India, the largest intentional community in the world. Suryamayi holds a PhD in International Development from the University of Sussex, and a BA from the University of California, Berkeley; she is currently affiliated with the Sri Aurobindo International Institute for Educational Research (SAIIER) in Auroville. Her research on utopian and prefigurative practice has been published by leading editors and publishers in the field, notably in the Ralahine Utopian Studies series (Peter Lang), the Alternatives to Capitalism in the 21st century series (Bristol University Press), and the Antipode Book Series (Wiley). Dedicated to sharing the outcomes of her research to various audiences, she lectures internationally in both academic and activist settings.

As inequality gets worse and worse, hostility for elites is at all time highs, and huge majorities of voters want higher taxes on the ultra-wealthy to pay for social programs, all the conditions are perfect for the left to be... Continue Reading →

Capitalism is often defended on the basis of freedom — “free markets”, free choice, as well as being credited with producing the wealth and material abundance that has freed countless people from poverty.Marx, meanwhile, described workers under capitalism as “free in the double sense”: “free” to sell their labour power in the market, and “free” or divorced from the means of production: the land, machinery or materials to sustain themselves on their own. In other words: not particularly free, at all. We can add to this the countless things that are, within market systems, “free” insofar as they are assigned no value, from the free gifts of nature to uncompensated environmental destruction and the unpaid labour that creates and sustains life. What, then, does freedom really mean within a capitalist society? When wealth is so vastly unequal, can it really be argued that market exchange is “free” in any real sense? And when the harms of our economic actions are invisible in the prices we pay—from deforestation to child labour—can we really be said to be making “free choices”? These are the questions at the heart of Alyssa Battistoni's book Free Gifts. In this episode, she joins Adrienne to talk about value, the politics of nature, and how we might live freely in a finite world.

Why does every new technology seem to make work harder and not easier? In 1974, Harry Braverman published a seminal text Labor and Monopoly Capital to answer that question. Combining a careful study of scientific management and technological innovation with several of Marx's key concepts, Braverman explained why workers under capitalism are gradually transformed into mere cogs in the machine. On the latest episode of Confronting Capitalism, Vivek Chibber and Melissa Naschek discuss the process of managers breaking down workers' skills and why work under capitalism tends to degrade rather than fulfill us.

In this episode, we break down what's happening across the portfolio as of March 2026, including the wins, setbacks, and a possible exit. You'll hear the numbers behind Sheer Strength's brand pivot, what's driving a 40% jump in profits, and how Switch Supplements is becoming a multi-7-figure business. Not everything is working, though. A few projects are on the struggle bus and are dragging down the overall portfolio. However, there's also a $10M exit brewing inside the Capitalism Fund, a $1M raise coming for one of the portfolio's fastest-growing brands... and some changes coming to Capitalism.com. 

As younger generations encounter tough job and housing markets and many Americans feel left behind, it's become more popular to question the utility of the capitalistic system. Can this tide really lift all boats? In this talk from the 2025 Aspen Ideas Festival, three experts in business, economics and anthropology meet to dissect how we got to this point, and what can be done to forge a new path for capitalism. Gillian Tett of the Financial Times and Cambridge University joins Jim Sorenson, the founder of the Sorenson Impact Foundation and Joshua Bolten, the CEO of Business Roundtable for a boundary-pushing conversation. The co-executive director of the Aspen Financial Security Program, Ida Rademacher, moderates the discussion.

Should Christians support capitalism? How effective has capitalism been in elevating people out of poverty? In this episode, which is the second part of a two-part series, Sean and Scott lay out the positive case for capitalism (aka, market economics). In the first part of this series, they offer a critique of socialism. In this episode, they advance a moral and biblical case for free markets and they respond to the most common objections. Scott's 2010 book on this subject is called The Virtues of Capitalism: A Moral Case for Free Markets. ==========Think Biblically: Conversations on Faith and Culture is a podcast from Talbot School of Theology at Biola University, which offers degrees both online and on campus in Southern California.

Two hundred fifty years after The Wealth of Nations, capitalism looks nothing like Adam Smith imagined (and nothing like Karl Marx predicted, either). Smith envisioned small, decentralized producers, while Marx foresaw concentration dominated by the rich. In this lecture, Yueran Ma of Chicago Booth draws on centuries of global data to show how production concentrated while ownership diffused, and the giants at the top keep getting toppled.

Miguel is joined on the podcast by Priyansh, a University of Toronto PhD candidate and new co-host of The End of Sport Podcast. In this episode, Priyansh outlines cricket's spread through British colonialism, elite club patronage, and later mass popularity in India via television and commercialization, noting the earlier prominence of field hockey and persistent class and regional inequalities. Furthermore, Miguel and Priyansh discuss Modi-era Hindu nationalist institutional capture of Indian cricket (BCCI), symbolic nationalism around stadium naming, and cricket's geopolitical implications, including Bangladesh being removed from the T20 World Cup amid tensions and Pakistan's threatened boycott of the India match, later reversed after talks. Priyansh connects this to state-capital consolidation, Indian corporate power in global cricket leagues, India's Olympic ambitions, and revisits C.L.R.

For decades, investor and business leader Steve Howard watched companies pour money and effort into sustainability initiatives ... and still fall short. The problem isn't a lack of will, he says; it's that capitalism and climate have been wired to work against each other. He shares four realities that explain why even well-intentioned businesses fail at climate action — as well as a plan to flip the system, making green innovation so powerful the market can't resist it. After, Modupe talks about why ignoring climate change isn't an option.Learn more about our flagship conference happening this April at attend.ted.com/podcast Hosted on Acast.

Capitalism by its nature produces crises and, for the last century, states have responded by imposing austerity measures on the public. Economist Clara Mattei argues that austerity is actually a bludgeon to entrench elite power and repress workers' aspirations for a more egalitarian society. She discusses its origins—and that of modern economics—during the greatest existential threat to the Western capitalist order. Please donate in support of KPFA and Against the Grain.

The notion that the Global South is affected ‘first and worst' by global shocks they didn't cause, namely climate change, is one of the cornerstones of leftist thought. But what if it's not entirely true? What if, contrary to this tenet, it's wealthy Western nations who have over-developed and lost their resilience in the process? […]

As media empires, from The Washington Post to CBS News, continue to be dealt significant blows, uncertainties abound about the remaining strength of a once robust American press landscape—but media scholars have long questioned how strong our system was to begin with. For this week's podcast extra, Micah sits down with Victor Pickard, professor of media policy and political economy at the University of Pennsylvania, to discuss why what we're seeing now is simply the latest stage of a phenomena called, "media capture," and what we can do to free ourselves from the downward slide.  On the Media is supported by listeners like you.
