  1. The founding fathers were righteous people who laid down their lives to give us everything we have today. Don't need to hear someone dishonoring them. Watching Americans completely fold to gov't. restrictions during (the you know what), tells you why we are under elitist controllers now.

  2. Here in San Diego there are no longer any starter homes like there was in 1995 when we bought a home. New cars are unaffordable. Unless you’re making well over $100,000 I’m not sure how people get by and actually have a place to live. Two of my 3 kids, that are in their 20’s still live at home. Rent is unaffordable.

  3. Anyone seeing this for the first time or wanting to expand on after several viewings should read the book requiem for an American dream. ✌🏼🌻💫

  4. Looks like the democrats didn't help much did they? Trump did. Soon as the gold standard dissapeared they no longer needed the peoples approval. Not with their printer in the basement. They simply can print power. Make no mistake money IS power

  5. It will get worse. It will get much worse. Machine learning will wipe out humanity within the next 200 years. The amazing feeling of power is what drives greed, but also the innate will for survival. We extract natural resources and exploit humans to achieve greatness. Sigmund Freud said in Civilization and its Discontents, “We destroy everything in front of us to prevent ourselves from being destroyed.” I wish everyone the best of luck, as you will surely need it.

  6. Chomsky Was brilliant at linguistics. So he naturally assumed he was brilliant at everything.. Questionably clueless on the rest.. What creates inequality is when the government is working in unison with big business to make the playing field unfair for the little guy. Combin that with the well-intentioned liberal socialist ideas and And you get what we're seeing now . We need a government that is focused on the common man. Not big businesses Special interest groups rich people or other countries. Keep the playing field level for the common man. Small and medium businesses and the free market will take care of the rest.. Capitalism isn't the best answer, it is the only answer. But when it is distorted by government collusion with big businesses. Then it becomes a horrible situation for the common man. If the left is able to push us into socialism, communism, then all will share in the misery just like Venezuela or the countless examples of its attempts in the past.
    Wealthy people should not be demonized but they should not be given unfair advantage, either. When a business becomes too large, that is no longer of the best interest of a common man than the government should step in and break it into smaller pieces. The government should not confiscate the wealthy people's money, but only not allow them to have to big of a share of the business or to large of a percentage of the public forum. Sell the pieces off and allow them to invest their money into smaller enterprises. At the rate things are currently going the 10 largest corporations will be running the world In society will be pushed into the misery of communism. The government elite and the rich will live like kings and the rest will live in festering poverty

  7. Nationalize the military industrial complex, banks, insurance industry, oil companies, healthcare. TERM LIMITS FOR ALL JUDGES AND POLITICIANS!!!!

  8. I am convinced all these efforts to social engineer income equality has done the EXACT opposite, making those even more poor, creating even more poor. Thereby making the rich yet even richer.

  9. The US is feeling the same inflation squeeze that was seen in the Uk in the late 1990s. Everything doubled in price.

  10. Noam recorded this several years ago.
    What he says is true.
    Now you know why working class wages are not growing with the rising cost of living.
    Oligarchs want cast society and feudal state.

  11. The middle class is disappearing because of their consumer mindset. They spend money on junk junk and more junk. The people that luck up and strike it rich are far and between if that doesn’t happen you have to save what you can instead of pretending to have more than you really do

  12. Exelente job professor Chomsky, we have in the world 🌎..and not only in USA.. big problem for millions of people, sacry..,.😱🤯😬… are generation is in big problem,…most of us is just survive… thanks you professor Chomsky…. take care you self. …🦁🇲🇽😄👍

  13. Sadly, tragically, the inescapable truths spoken here are beyond the intellectual capacity of millions of Americans. Those that are most severely affected by our national trends and policies are unable to recognize these truths. Those others who CAN, are economically complacent enough to ignore them. We the People have been captured by our own ignorance and passivity.

  14. Im tryin to raise my children in a country where i dont have to have a degree or license to make money. Im not paying taxes so negros and minorities can sit and collect a check anymore.

  16. Ya almost have to have BeenThere & LivedThru this, or at least to have been a student of SocioEconomics to see how all this Real Crisis has come together, and hopefully find ways to Regain Control, so that All Generations are Boomers! Born in 1953 & a tax payer/Voter by 1970, I’ve seen Assassination/Segregation/Civil Rights/Flower Power/Women’sLib/Autonomous Choice (Dobbs)/Reaganomics (Still waiting on tht TrickleDownness that was supposed to happen), Man on the Moon/Computers/Internet/Cellphones/Satellite TVRadio/Cable…and I’m here to tell ya…Nixon might’ve gotten caught, but it was Ronald Reagan and the FarRight Minority that’s been the Instigators of subverting the Democracy this Country was becoming Post WWI & II…and Turning it to a Plutocracy with the global controls of Trade/Commerce of Food, Water, Fuels.
    Norm wasn’t wrong back in the day…and he Ain’t Wrong Today!
    Society best wake up! I already pity my grandchildren’ and great grandchildren’s future! My kids are in their 50’s so they’ll see as much transition in Society and our Economy as I have since the 1950’s.
    This ain’t Beaver Cleaver’s or Andy & Opie’s Mayberry RFD America !

    Wake up! And Vote Out these Subversive Republican TaxDodgingStockMarketManipulating Elites and Get this Country Back on Track!

  17. I'm a Gen-xr, I've never experienced the prosperity of the boomer generation. Nothing's changed for me. what i have learned over the years is to work and save as much money as possible and to be as sufficient as I can.
    America has been on a downhill slide since Nixion took us of the gold standard and America started printing fiat currency and now It's finally caught up with us.

  18. it's nice to be able to find who's responsible for this, (the Boomers 😂 😁) but at the end of the day, I just need to know how to survive and thrive in the coming dystopian future.

  19. I grew up in the inner city, very poor, today in my mid 50s, I am a part of the working, working class, life was tougher when Obama was president, life is really tough with Biden president, today’s pour is not the same poor of the 1970s, everyone has a cell phone a large flat screen TV, cigarettes, drugs and alcohol, in the 70s we didn’t have squat, the war on poverty has disassembled this country

  20. Is there a book about all of this? Even the ones on the video what are they called exactly? This video got me interested in the subject. Thanks

  21. If really like to ask Mr Chomsky who else we can listen to like him. Who we can trust. Who knows the world. I don't know what I'll do without him. He put me on to Michael Klarman.. i was a huge follower of Howard Zinn, but I don't know a single historian activist, intellect like Mr. Chomsky. Anyone?

  22. The cancer that keeps destroying US Democracy and stealing power, is the Republican Party. I'm hoping as the baby boomer generation dies off, the Republican Party will become so weak its destructive power will diminish to the point of being negligible.

  23. @18:53 "There had been no financial crashes during the period of regulation. By the 1970's that changed".

    What else changed in the 1970s? We went off the gold standard. Left-leaning intellectuals need to harp on this fact more than they currently do. I know Noam knows about this.
