Should government be run like a business? No, says Donald Cohen, the founder and executive director of In The Public Interest and author of the book “The Privatization of Everything: How the Plunder of Public Goods Transformed America and How We Can Fight Back"   In this episode, Marianne & Donald go deep into the insidious ways that private industry exerts undue influence on our government.

The idea of collective action for the common good has slowly given way in this country to private and for-profit … by design. If we're going to improve health and health equity for everyone, we have to understand the shift away from the things once considered sacred public goods (i.e., public schools, transportation, infrastructure, and investment in all communities). In this episode, we talk with author Donald Cohen, who recently published The Privatization of Everything: How the Plunder of Public Goods Transformed America and How We Can Fight Back, to find out how we got here and how we can return to a mindset of social solidarity.

Even in the middle of a pandemic, trickle-down politicians still love to claim that the free market is the best way to resolve human problems and that the government can't be trusted to serve the public good. But when we privatize public health, utilities, and other shared necessities, we hand over control of those public goods—the things that we all need and that we need everyone to have— to for-profit entities that don't answer to the public. Donald Cohen, an expert on privatization, shares examples and talks about the consequences of privatization in America. Donald Cohen is the founder and executive director of In The Public Interest, a national resource and policy center on privatization and responsible contracting.

I finally had the chance to listen to Joe Biden's speech from yesterday in Atlanta on voting rights. I may have been too harsh yesterday, basing my critical comments on the last two to three minutes of the speech. So I'll give him an A on substance, a C- on delivery, but a failing grade on timing. I'll explain at the top of the show. Our guest today is Donald Cohen, executive director of In The Public Interest, and author of the book, "The Privatization of Everything: How the Plunder of Public Goods Transformed America and How We Can Fight Back." ** A note from Nicole. That's what was planned for today. But as I was telling you about today's guest and the subject, I started a rant on the slow moving complete privatization of Medicare, and never did get to voting rights. So we'll do that tomorrow....

Sam hosts Donald Cohen, founder and executive director of In the Public Interest, to discuss his recent book The Privatization of Everything: How the Plunder of Public Goods Transformed America and How We Can Fight Back that he co-wrote with Allen Mikaelian, on how neoliberal policies have cut up the public sphere, dividing its profits between a narrow subset of people, while turning the rest of us into competing consumers rather than communal citizens. Cohen and Sam begin by walking through how private companies take over public goods, first looking at the cautionary tale of Chicago Parking Meters LLC, originally a public good before being frantically sold for just over a billion dollars to offset the red in the city's budget, only to see the cost of parking in Chicago skyrocket as the city realized it had undersold for fractions of the potential profits. However, solely focusing on parking drastically undersells the issue, as they explore how, beyond distributing wealth to further stratification, the privatization of public goods often ends up putting necessities in the hands of corporations, including access to clean water, education (both schools and libraries), and, of course, healthcare, resulting in the most central elements of our society turning towards the market over the community. Donald Cohen dives into this privatization of community, working through the disastrous effects of charter schools and private schools on our education system, before taking a step back in scale to discuss how socialized medicine gave us all of the benefits of the vaccines, while the privatized profits have contributed to all of the horrors of the variants, and what the privatization of the judicial system has looked like. They wrap up the interview by touching on how we can push back against rampant privatization, focusing on pressuring our local and federal governments on legislative and policy issues, and reminding the public of the surface of the state that protects us in everyday life. And in the Fun Half: Eric Adams moves his claim over the NYPD to be one over every worker in New York City, Coby from Utah calls in to discuss the healthcare provider shortage, and Robert from Tampa follows that up with a discussion on municipal ownership of utilities. El Camino Chavez finally gets his chance to debate Sam, only to blow it out his mask, Dana Perino reminds us that if we want to conquer the elements, we need tanks, or, ya know, farming equipment. Manchin is done with shutting things down, the MR Crew admires Ted Cruz's and Senator Hawley's foresight on last January 5th, and Tyler from Indianapolis explores white supremacy and the military, plus, your calls and IMs!

Donald Cohen, author of "The Privatization of Everything: How the Plunder of Public Goods Transformed America and How We Can Fight Back."

The Privatization of Everything How the Plunder of Public Goods Transformed America and How We Can Fight Back The post Donald Cohen, founder of In the Public Interest, discusses “The Privatization of Everything” appeared first on NC Policy Watch.

(12/15/21) Ever since President Ronald Reagan successfully branded government as a dangerous threat, privatization has touched every aspect of our lives, from water and trash collection to the justice system and the military. However, citizens can, and are, wresting back what is ours. The Privatization of Everything: How the Plunder of Public Goods Transformed America and How We Can Fight Back, the new book from Donald Cohen, founder and executive director of In the Public Interest, and journalist Allen Mikaelian exposes the hidden crisis of privatization that has been slowly unfolding over the past 50 years and offers a road map for taking the country back. Join us for a look at the dangers of privatization in this installment of Leonard Lopate at Large on WBAI.

As people reach for social justice and better lives, they create public goods--free education, public health, open parks, clean water, and many others--that must be kept out of the market. When private interests take over, they strip public goods of their power to lift people up, creating instead a tool to diminish democracy, further inequality, and separate us from each other.  The Privatization of Everything: How the Plunder of Public Goods Transformed America and How We Can Fight Back (New Press, 2021), by the founder of In the Public Interest, an organization dedicated to shared prosperity and the common good, chronicles the efforts to turn our public goods into private profit centers. The Privatization of Everything connects the dots across a broad spectrum of issues and raises larger questions about who controls the public things we all rely on, exposing the hidden crisis of privatization that has been slowly unfolding over the last fifty years and giving us a road map for taking our country back.

Con men (or women) and their schemes have drawn interest from the public since their inception, but the victims behind their actions almost always wish they had never gotten involved.  Today's show subject, Anna Delvey, pulled the wool over the eyes of many and lived a life most folks could only dream of – all on other people's dime.  But does this flimflam women stack up to the greats or was she just a low-level liar that got the right people's attention?  We'll dive into this and much more on this episode of AHC Podcast.         Intro Music Credit: Dar Golan - Royalty free russian music (no copyrights) Royalty free Russian music - free instrumental music for personal or commercial use - Copyright free.

The push for digital banking amid the growing emphasis on social distancing has put a spotlight on those organizations that have lagged behind the marketplace with digital delivery and digital transformation. But, can laggard organizations pick up the pace when the rest of the world grinds to a halt?   We are faced with a unique time in banking where organizations that have invested in advanced analytics, innovation and digital transformation have the opportunity to leverage their customer experience and digital product advantages more than ever.   Today’s guest on the podcast is Jeremy Balkin, the head of innovation at HSBC. Jeremy is also the author of two books, ‘Investing with Impact: Why Finance is a Force for Good’, and ‘Millennialization of Everything: How to Win When Millennials Rule the World’.

I decided to leave it in because it's just life! We are not here for "perfection" we are here to help educate and introduce you to new concepts! Get over it... ;-) our esteemed guest today was one of my favorites by far and a snapshot into the mind of a genius, but a genius that's like you and I but with "empowerment". To use his mind to come up with a very, very intriguing TOE. He has an incredible Youtube video collection that you should all go and watch immediately after listening to this podcast, subscribing please, and giving us a 5 star for the Apple algorithms! We could have easily gone on and did an 8-hour podcast, but I only wanted to whet your appetite and go and learn more on your own. Also, the plea for a theoretical physicist is real that we need to prove Neil's theories or disprove them. I'm hoping that by the distribution and passing on of this episode we can find Neil this mathematician he needs so we can find what's right or what's wrong and allow him to keep working on this very plausible theory. His childhood experiences are very unique but may resonate with a lot of people out there! It's a reminder to believe in your selves and to give your self a chance to understand these things and maybe even contribute to them. Below is the link to his Youtube channel. Tons to digest here and be open to. Neil is very humble and realizes he doesn't have every answer, but he also knows as I've been telling people that if you don't try and don't trust your instincts like he did (well, he also had a mind-blowing experience when young, but that should not stop you from always thinking and trying to add to the knowledge base.) That we will stop learning as a species. So, take a lesson from Neil and get out there and think.

Navigating #MeToo. With Food Women. Welcome to a very special episode, the premiere of a new segment on the podcast I like to call the Edacious Round Table. Instead of learning one person's journey, area Food Folks discuss a topic. First up? Harassment and discrimination in Food Work with co-hosts Arley Arrington and Clare Terni. How has it affected Charlottesville? What can we do to change things? We dive in. Arley Arrington works at Whisk in Richmond. Previously, she lived and worked in Charlottesville as a server in various restaurants and as a baker at Brookville. She's also done catering for The Space and owns her baking business, Arley Cakes. She is a past podcast guest and her lemon raspberry birthday cake won a 2017 Edacious Golden Fork Award. Clare Terni has lived in Charlottesville for 20 years and has worked on and off in food since she was sixteen, mostly catering and working in restaurants. She currently teaches Anthropology at JMU and works as both a server and manager for The Whiskey Jar, as well as creating social media for Ten Course Hospitality. As Clare states so well during our conversation, gender roles are changing slowly. They are broader than they once were, but limitations still exist. Many back-of-house employees are men while front-of-house are mostly women. If women are in the back, they're often relegated to salads or pastries. How do we change that? Certainly not with one conversation. But maybe by talking about it, we get other people talking, writing, discussing, disagreeing, and finally, making necessary changes. Maybe we do that. There's a lot to discuss. The way women accept the self-destructive behavior, yelling, and machismo in the food industry because it's what we've always expected. The way smiling or not is seen by turns as a sexual invitation or a BITCH label. The way Mansplaining, inappropriate comments, inappropriate touching, subtle and not so subtle digs at our gender are disguised as jokes. We cover it all. Are women more motivated to start their own businesses because they want to create a better environment? What about the roadblocks they face when they do? What about race? When you're a woman of color in the South who owns a business, how does that affect EVERYTHING? How did Donald Glover's Atlanta fit into our conversation? How does Charlottesville and its current dynamic fit into this discussion? We spend a great deal of time and get very vulnerable and real on this topic. Which was scary as heck for this Southern white woman. And awesome and wonderful and it makes me proud to know these amazing women. Is building a loyal staff who stay for years the answer? Building trust among your employees? A dedicated human resource department? What about small operations who can't afford that? What about a server who might smile a bit more because it means the difference between $200 in tips and $500? Is crying on the job okay? What about women chefs who insist gender makes no difference? When you're the boss it's important to model the behavior you want your employees to exhibit. In my opinion, it can affect the ambiance, even the food. Not only the culture of your kitchen but the culture of your restaurant. We are not health professionals. Just three women who do the Work of  Food and have stories and opinions. If you feel you've experienced harassment on the job or in any aspect of your life, please reach out to someone. Tell them about it. Heck, reach out to me and tell me about it. I'm not sure who or where to direct you, but I promise if you reach out? I'll find out. You are not alone in this. Relistening to this episode helped me understand how very much I don't know. How blessed I am because of my privilege. There's still so much to learn. I'm not woke but I am aware and I look forward to any education I experience every day of my life. I didn't edit this down. It's very long. It's very important. So I hope you'll give it a listen. There is so much here. Thank you to these ladies who had the courage to get vulnerable and tell their stories. I hope by doing so we can shed some light on the very real issue that is occurring daily here and all over the world. Maybe by talking about it awareness will rise and eventually we'll have other issues to tackle around a table because this one will be nonexistent. In the meantime, tell me what you think. Cheers.

Interview with Holistic Health Coach and Author, Katherine Egan Katherine is on a mission to spread hope in her new book, Genetics Isn’t Everything - How to makes your G-E-N-E-S fit you.

Today's Topic – The Originality Trap And How To Avoid It! I have spent countless hours working on being original.  It was truly a concern.  I worried about my clothes, my music, my art, and my fantasy world.  I wanted everything to be original.    However, I like most people failed at the task. I read books people did not read. I played games that others made fun of.  I wore all black, just like most of my friends. I listened to metal, unlike all of the other people. I wish I could have learned the truth earlier. I was not original; I was just not mainstream.  However, I could not have been original.  At least not by my definition, I was merely an arrogant jerk who like to think less of people who I thought brought into the system. The End of originality And was I not only not original. I was an idiot. It took me well over twenty years to figure it out. I started to figure it out in 1999 when Stardust came out from Neal Gaiman.  Many of my players teased me when Neal had a city called Highwall.  How dare he! I had been using that name for a decade.  So, to proof my originally, I wrapped up that game and started a new game that took place in space.  I could force the players to fly away from my embarrassment of the City of Highwall.   In my fantasy world, Gardul. There were a few being called gods.  They gain power through belief.  So, I wanted to have them use the players to battle each other to gain power.  The older gods would try and seize the power away from the newer gods.  I was so proud of my story. During the early stages of the story, one of my friends commented how he loved this game. It was just like a book called, “American Gods.” I was insulted, I denied it and to prove my point I had them shoot and kill and themselves at a previous point in time. This created a paradox that destroyed the universe. A storyteller scorned Honestly, I was so agitated that I have never spoken to Neal again.  Of course, again might be a bit of a stretch since I had never had the fortune of meeting Mr. Gaiman.  However, the incident did teach me a lesson. No one can be completely original. Let’s Face it, even if a person could survive doing nothing that has never been done before, which is impossible. The had an origin from two other people.  What is originality? The truth is if I had thought about what it means to be original instead of worrying about what people perceived me to be. I could have saved a lot of time. Because the reality is as similar as all human beings are there are no two exact copies. The environment effects all of us differently. My exact taste in music, art, and entertainment is closely matched by my friends.  However, they are never exactly the same. And at a more fundamental way, we vary at a genetic level.  And thanks to a study about identical twins, by Geneticist Carl Bruder, he found even that there were subtle differences in them. http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/identical-twins-genes-are-not-identical/ However, the fact we are all individuals does not meet my need for being creative when I write. So, I decided to look up in the dictionary what it means to be originality and according to oxford I have two choices: “The ability to think independently and creatively” or “The quality of being novel or unusual.” First choice for the win! Now, I have, to be honest. The second choice stood out to me.  However, I had to dismiss because “novel or unusual” are too subjective. What is novel to me a white male who was born in Indiana and now lives in Connecticut might not be all that novel to an Assamese female from India.  And even if we do agree something is novel, there will be a troll on the internet that calls us both idiots.  So, that really leaves me with the ability to think independently and creatively. Now, I know what you are thinking. The troll will still call me an idiot because they are still objective terms.  And, you are right.  However, I think they can be used in non-subjective ways. So we will just pretend that I am correct. Now, I will wait for a few moments if you want to troll me in the comments. http://www.oxforddictionaries.com/us/definition/american_english/originality What is originality not? Now, Since I have spent years as an information technology analyst. I have to say what is out of scope.  What I do not mean by being original in my mind. First, writing about underrepresented peoples, cultures, or genders will not make a work original.  Even, if you think there should be more books written from different perspectives that will not in and of itself make it original. Even, if you hate political correctness and want to belittle the underrepresented characters, you are not original. Also, rewriting the nouns to other nouns.  If you call your rabbit a smeerp. Does not make it original. In fact, besides not be original as an author you will only create more work for yourself having to convey the sense that a smeerp is a rabbit. Frack, If you are going to go to all the effort to create a noun go all the way and create a new creature. Gorram, this one makes me mad. Do not be a tvtrope trope and do not waste your time. http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/CallARabbitASmeerp Now, you can be original even if you have a story about a smeerp hero that is underrepresented in western society.  However, It will be because of the smeerp or underrepresented character. It will be original because of the novel thought and creative style you add to the story. Being original will not turn your work into an instant classic So, we have figured out that it is possible to create something that is original.  However, it could be forgotten or even hated by people. Let’s be honest. There is a reason that TV, Movies, Video Games, and all creative content has formulas.  They sell, and the thing that makes a classic a classic is the fact that it keeps selling long after it is released.  Still don’t believe me.  How many comic book movies have you watched since the creation of the Extended Marvel Universe was created? If you are like me, you have no idea because you ran out of fingers and toes.  They are all a formula, and here it is. (Superhero * (2*Log(fun)) – (1 * the number of sequels) + plus a studio fee = Money from my wallet to be given to Disney. Now, only time will tell if any of those movies will end up being classic.  However, most of my friends would agree that the Matrix was a classic.  I agree, and I even like it the first time when I learned about Jesus in the bible.  Yes, the Matrix is a hack and slash job of the gospels of Jesus, and I argued with countless people that it was not original.  Now, I do believe original stories can become classics.  However, if you steal a story that is already a classic, you have a head start. Original is not always desired People love to identify with heroes and maidens. They judge fiction on what they believe or not.  It is a curse that if we share our works with people.  We usually want positive feedback.  I remember a friend telling me that he was playing in a sci-fi game that was based on silicon lifeforms.  He was attracted to it because it was not just another sci-fi game. The game master sold him on the original concept.  And my friend even agreed that after playing it that the game master succeeded at making the game original.  The only problem, he hated the game because he couldn’t connect with the characters or their struggles. I know this is an anecdote; I am not saying you cannot make it work. I am saying be careful what you ask for.  What are we trying to make original? Instead of trying to make everything in our world or story original.  We could focus on a comprise. We will add a laser gun to our super sword and sorcery adventure, and it might be enough to start a new property that Disney can by and make more movies over.  The Story attached to it?  Okay, I had to bring Star Wars in somehow.  Forget the snarkiness; we know we are trying to think independently and creatively. We can comprise to attract an audience. We can give them something to connect with while focusing our creative on our strengths. For me, I am creative with evolving cultures, countries, and characters.  However, I am not creative at new types of plants or farm creatures.  Heck, I cannot imagine a modern society without farms.  If you can create a modern society without farms, send me the link. I want to read it. But, really play to your strengths in world building, writing, and storytelling.  The combination of all your imagination should make you game or book feel original.  And isn’t that our ultimate goal. How to we make something original? Focus on working independently and creatively. There is no magic formula needed. If you feel that you do not have enough skill, then practice by doing the activity. Write stories and share them with people.  There are other writers or possible future fans that will want to help you. Take the constructive feedback and work to improve your skills. Working independently will come first.  Most people are already able to do that.  Creativity is more complicated than working independently.  However, people who read have an imagination.  Imagination is the pictures in your head that you see when you read a book.  Practice, play, and push your creativity, and it will grow. Why Do we want to make something original? Maybe you want to prove something.  Maybe to others or maybe to yourself. Maybe you think that being original will make you famous or better than other storytellers. Whatever you think, make sure that is your real goal. And do it for yourself.  Have fun doing it.  And do not waste your time obsession on the originality of every piece of content you create. You will end up wasting time. Time is the one resource you cannot make up. Podcast Show Flow What is originality?
