In this episode, Trevor, Scott, and Joe discuss Donald Trump's close brush with death after an assassination attempt, the conspiracy theories that followed, and the political ramifications. They also dive deep into the economic concepts of surplus value in capitalism, the need for foreign markets, and the role of imperialism, referencing classic theories and contemporary critiques. The trio also touches on China's approach to capitalism through intense competition and limiting monopoly power. Moreover, the episode covers a recent controversial decision by the US Supreme Court affecting administrative authority and the potential dystopian shifts in American democracy.00:00 Introduction and Catching Up01:11 Trump's Near Miss: A Detailed Discussion04:03 Conspiracy Theories and Political Ramifications13:51 Hypocrisy in Political Violence24:30 The Iron Heel and Capitalism's Flaws29:31 Understanding Wage and Capital Distribution30:23 The Need for Foreign Markets32:35 Capitalism and Surplus Value33:25 Service Industry and Capitalism35:09 Radhika Desai's Insights on Capitalism39:42 China's Economic Model46:57 Technological Dependence in Modern Vehicles51:26 US Supreme Court and Political Implications53:35 Future of US Democracy01:00:01 Concluding ThoughtsTo financially support the Podcast you can make:a per-episode donation via Patreon or one-off donation via credit card; orone-off or regular donations via Paypal orif you are into Cryptocurrency you can send Satoshis.

Order our book, The Score That Matters https://amzn.to/3xbhAdD Full show notes at www.LearningLeader.com The Learning Leader Show With Ryan Hawk Create surplus value - What can we do to give more than we take? "The key is to figure out what you can do that others can't or are unwilling to do. Hard work is a talent. Curiosity is a talent. Patience and empathy are talents." "Helping others makes me feel strong." Scott's recent experience with Ketamine Therapy - "It clarified my thinking. It's helped me stop keeping score. It also made me grateful for my wife. Did you ever get a gift when you were a kid that you weren't expecting and you couldn't afford it? Something you never imagined having.” I got a $45 Banh skateboard from my mom's boyfriend Terry. It was a moment of sheer surprise and joy. My wife kept popping in my head and I kept thinking, god I get to hang out with this person, get to have kids with them, get to build a life with her. It was this overwhelming feeling of wonderful joy and surprise. It was very clarifying and rewarding for me.” "You Gotta Ask" - Scott met his wife at the Raleigh Hotel pool in Miami. He saw her from a distance and promised himself that he wouldn't leave the pool without introducing himself to her first. In order to do anything of significance in your life, you must take an uncomfortable risk." Scott is married to Beata Galloway, a real estate developer born in Germany. Together, they have two sons. One of them has the middle name, Raleigh. Why Crying is Important - "It informs what's important to you." Why Scott uses crude humor - It's used to connect with people. And people are either afraid or not able to do it. When Scott was 13… One of his mom's boyfriends handed him two crisp 100-dollar bills after he asked him about stocks. Terry (his mom's boyfriend) told him “Go buy some stock at one of those fancy brokers in the village." Once there, Scott met a mentor named Cy Gordner who helped him learn about the markets. Show up when it matters — Michael Bloomberg's policy. "If a friend gets a promotion, there is no need to call. You'll get dinner with them at some point. But if a friend gets fired, I have dinner with them that night in a public place where everybody can see me. Because I remember when I got fired from Solomon Brothers — I can tell you every person that called me. That meant something. When I was made partner? I have no recollection of that whatsoever." Last year Scott had 340 inbound speaking requests. He accepted 30 of them. His average rate is $112,000 per speech. “The stimulus that attracted my attention with the most urgency was money, not as a means of establishing economic security, but to feed my addiction: affirmation from others.” The role of Luck - Being born in America in the 1960s and two (most importantly) Scott's mom. Though she was raised in a household with little affection, she couldn't control herself with her son. “For me, affection was the difference between hoping someone thought I was wonderful or worthy and knowing it.” (Emotional) Scott is a dynamic communicator: A turn of phrase is a way of expressing something, in writing or speech, that stands out in some particular way. One of the key indicators of long-term success is the “willingness to endure rejection.” Whether this is walking up to a stranger at the Raleigh hotel, a cold-calling sales job, or asking people to be on your podcast. How to build wealth? Focus (mastery, find your talent), Stoicism (this is about saving more than you spend), Time ( 21 years with your money in low-cost index funds, you will earn 8 times your money), Diversification (Your kevlar). Once you earn some money, assume you are not Steve Ballmer or Mark Zuckerberg. Use a variety of investment vehicles. Going all on one company or asset class is not the optimal choice for most of us.

Dive into the depths of the murky waters of Marxist value theory with Colin Drumm, the founder of Mimbres School, for an enlightening exploration. We examine the labyrinth of different interpretations, their birth in a politically charged context, and the reflections of Marx's idealistic concept of a liberal economy, sans state, in his work. We unwrap Petty's theories of surplus value, shedding light on the enigma that Marx's understanding of value theory often is, and challenging your preconceived notions.Our journey extends through economic theory development and the repercussions of capitalized value and taxation. William Petty's contribution to the transformation of surveying and his impact on the valuation of seized land is a highlight we delve into with gusto. We further explore the debates on tax proportioning post the civil war and its influence on our current comprehension of value. The discussion on Smith's theories - their influence on our perception of economic security and military strength, the Ricardo-Malthus debate on managing large permanent debt, and the birth of Keynesian theory, promises to be a riveting exploration.Lastly, we dissect and critique Marxist and MMT Economic Theories. Colin's analysis of Marx's labor theory of value, the intricacies, and its implications on government authority and money, presents a compelling narrative. We debate the problems with our intellectual history beyond Marxism and its influence on our present understanding of economics. We conclude our conversation by questioning economic growth, its implications, power dynamics, and distribution, urging you to reassess traditional economic theories and explore alternate perspectives. Join this intellectual voyage for a fresh perspective on economics and its theories.The Wake Up America Show with Austin PetersenLiberty news talk! Killer guests! No sacred cows! Win prizes!

This week Eliana and Patrick delve into Lizzie Borden's 1986 dramedy Working Girls about a day in the life of a group of young sex workers in a middle-class brothel in 1980s Manhattan.A milieu rarely ever depicted on the big screen in American cinema (in their Criterion essay So Meyer stresses that it was not until Sean Baker's Tangerine in 2015—three decades later—that the lived reality of sex workers would take center stage of a major US feature film again), Borden, with her observational eye and collaborative filmmaking process, circumvents the common dichotomous portrayal of prostitutes as either glamorized or pitiable, shedding light on the profession that proves both sympathetic to its characters and discerning of the mundanity of their profession—ultimately highlighting the autonomy women can exercise while embracing that the world's oldest profession is just that—a profession.Resources:Borden, Lizzie, and Gordon, Betty. “Lizzie Borden and Bette Gordon on Working Girls.” Criterion, 2021,Da Costa, Cassie.

We continue our series looking at economists who influenced Steve Keens thinking. This week it's American economists Richard Goodwin, who Steve says is the chief proponent of non-linear thinking in economics. He wrote Theories of Surplus Value, which was about business cycles happening without any exogenous shocks, from overaccumulation and overproduction His biggest weakness was that he didn't accept the role of banks in money creation, as he highlighted in a letter to Steve in the 1990s.

Using Karl Marx's notion of surplus value, I ask: what is the felt surplus in Golden-Age Gospel music (Thomas Dorsey, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, and Mahalia Jackson)? I suggest various ways in which it may emerge.

Toward the end of our earlier introduction to surplus value, the heart and motor of the class struggle, we wrote that: “The rate of surplus value for the capitalist is the rate of exploitation for the worker. By merely prolonging the working day, the capitalist accrues more (absolute) surplus value. Increasing the working day from eight to 10 hours results in two more hours of surplus value for the capitalist and of exploitation for the worker”. For any working period—whether it be a day, an hour, or five minutes—part of the period is “necessary labor” and another part is “surplus labor.” The former is when the worker produces the value of their own wage, and the latter is when the worker produces surplus value for the capitalist. The ratio between the two is the rate of surplus value for the capitalist and the rate of exploitation for the worker. Absolute surplus value, Marx says, is “produced by prolongation of the working-day” [2]. In other words, if the ratio between necessary and surplus labor is fixed, then prolonging the working day will result in more surplus value for the capitalist and a greater degree of exploitation for the worker. Capital's entire reason for being is to produce surplus value, to increase the exploitation of the working class. As a result, there's a logical impulse for each capitalist to extend the working day as much as possible. Yet not only might this produce problems for capitalism as a whole (in that it could exhaust the supply of labor-power available), but the working class fights back against exploitation, and at times is able to force limits to the length of the working day. What happens, then, when political legislation limits the working day to, say, eight hours? This is obviously a limit to capitalist accumulation. For capital, however, “every limit appears as a barrier to be overcome”. Relative surplus value is capital's strategy for overcoming this limit.

In this episode, I have on my homie Ramiro, aka Ramiro Sebastián Fúnez on Youtube, and also the host of Unmasking Imperialism a show that is dedicated to unmasking the propaganda of US Imperialism. We discuss the economic theories of Marx such as Alienation: the separation of one laborer from the products of their own labor, its value, and its use. We also discuss Surplus Value, Class Struggle, and things such as the wealth gap and how it became so massive. I hope you'll enjoy the show!

Chinese pop star Kris Wu is facing a #MeToo storm, after 18-year-old Du Meizhu accused him of pressuring young women into having sex. Wu has denied the accusations but he the accusations have triggered widespread public outcry. In light of this news, we want to re-share our earlier episode about the 2019 movie “Bombshell” and two books that started the “MeToo movement” around the world.The week we recorded this episode, the verdict of the Weinstein trial had just come out and some say it is ushering in a new legal era in how we treat sexual harassment cases. We want to use “Bombshell” as a way into talking about what has changed, what hasn't and what we can do to empower each other and push back against the logic (and normalization) of sexual harassment in career settings.

The notion that the rich are rich because they're frugal, smart, entrepreneurial, and hardworking, and that the poor are poor because they're wasteful, lazy, stupid, and irresponsible is widespread. This is the ideology of meritocracy: that success or failure in life is up to the individual's choices. The ideology takes on different forms, such as the idea that Black liberation is achieved through “Black buying power,” as Jared Ball's recent book puts it. Whatever form it takes, this ideology serves the purpose of blaming the poor for their poverty and the oppressed for their oppression. The capitalist system that produces both is totally absolved. What's interesting is that although this notion is widely accepted, it is easily disproved. Who, after all, thinks Donald Trump gained his wealth by employing his intelligence? It's obvious that his wealth has nothing to do with his own individual personality, characteristics or merits. On the other end, who doesn't know smart and creative people—maybe even with advanced degrees—who are either working low-waged jobs or are unemployed? Marx was the first to discover and articulate the specific source of inequality under capitalism: surplus value. In a letter he wrote to Engels the year he published the first volume of Capital, Marx said that “the treatment of surplus-value regardless of its particular forms as profit, interest, ground rent, etc.” was one of the “best points” made in the book. But there are a few necessary steps to take before we can really grasp surplus value, which is the real motor of class struggle.

To help us make sense of Marx’s Capital, and therefore capitalism, Hadas Thier has just published the book ‘A people’s guide to capitalism: An introduction to Marxist economics.’ Its fresh, contemporary prose makes Marx’s concepts more accessible without sacrificing their depth. In this episode we discuss the continued relevance of the concept of ‘surplus value,’ which occupies much of the first volume of Capital. Hadas Thier is a member of the New York City branch of DSA. She writes for Jacobin, In these Times and other publications. Like many New Yorkers, she is also a mother struggling with issues of child care and schooling during the pandemic.

In this episode, we talk about the 2019 movie “Bombshell” and two books that started the global “MeToo” movement—Ronan Farrow’s “Catch and Kill” and “She Said” by Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey. It’s been almost 4 years since Trump’s “Pussygate” and his election, three years since the bombshell news story of Weinstein broke, two years since the Kavanaugh hearing. Is “MeToo” going too far? (Spoiler alert: nooooo.)The week we recorded this episode, the verdict of the Weinstein trial had just come out and some say it is ushering in a new legal era in how we treat sexual harassment cases. We want to use “Bombshell” as a way into talking about what has changed, what hasn’t and what we can do to empower each other and push back against the logic (and normalization) of sexual harassment in career settings.

Section 7. Chapter 25 and 26.
Karl Marx is known for his political philosophy and critique of Capitalism but not for imaginative prose or parenting skills. He was, by all accounts, a loving and doting father and it wouldn't be a surprise if, at some point, he had tried to write a children's story. But could he steer clear of political analysis and stick to imaginative prose? New evidence shows that, yes, he did attempt to write a children's story, and, no, he could resist the temptation to use the story to explain his Theory of Surplus Value.
How do the rich become rich? In another wide-ranging episode we cover topics including how being rich leads to being richer, the tendency of large businesses to devour smaller ones, the brutal living conditions of English workers in Marx's time, which persist until today in the Global South, the colonisation of Ireland and more. The end is almost in sight as we sit down for the penultimate episode in our series on Karl Marx's 'Capital - Volume I' covering all of 'Section 7 - The Process of Accumulation of Capital', which includes; 'Chapter 23 - Simple Reproduction', 'Chapter 24 - The Transformation of Surplus-Value into Capital' and 'Chapter 25 - The General Law of Capitalist Accumulation'.

In this episode we're covering the two types of surplus-value and how they are produced; as well as wages, what they are and why we are paid in the ways that we are. As we go through chapters 16-22 covering all of 'Part 6 - Absolute and Relative Surplus-Value' and 'Part 7 -Wages' from 'Capital - Volume I' by Karl Marx, you can expect more of Marx's usual, spicy takes and profound insights, and we accidentally go off on a conspiracy theory tangent.

Prof. Harvey talks about the rate and mass of surplus-value and explores why capital is more interested in the mass of surplus-value.that. It is in fact, the mass that gives capitalists wealth and power.

The Relativity of Surplus Value by Anti-Capital
This talk considers the ways in which Marx’s notion of “surplus-value” bears on Jacques Lacan’s idea of a “surplus-enjoyment” which, rather than a simple stepping up of pleasure, designates an additional pleasure obtained by its very deferral. These insights, it … Continue reading →

Part 2 of the Masterclass: Surplus-Value, Surplus-Enjoyment, Surplus-Knowledge Jacques Lacan located the origin of his key notion of plus-de-jouir (surplus-enjoyment) in Marx’s notion of surplus-value, and it is worth exploring in detail the homology of the two notions, adding a third … Continue reading →
