Robert Reich’s UC Berkeley Course on Wealth & Poverty

Open Culture has Robert Reich’s UC Berkeley Course on Wealth & Poverty Is Free Online.

Once the Secretary of Labor under the Clinton Administration, Robert Reich spent 17 years teaching at UC Berkeley. This past spring, he taught his final course there, and it’s now available online. Above, you can stream 14 lectures from “Wealth and Poverty,” a course “designed to provide students with a deeper understanding of both the organization of the political economy in the United States and of other advanced economies, and why the distribution of earnings, wealth, and opportunity have been diverging in the United States and in other nations.” Usually attended by 750 Berkeley undergraduates, the course is also “intended to provide insights into the political and public-policy debates that have arisen in light of this divergence, as well as possible means of reversing it.”

Here is the first class with links to the other 13 classes.



How Google Shifted 6 MILLION Votes To Joe Biden! 1

YouTube has the video How Google Shifted 6 MILLION Votes To Joe Biden! w/ Dr. Robert Epstein.

Former Harvard psychology professor and current director of the American Institute for Behavioral Research and Technology (AIBRT) Dr. Robert Epstein joined The Jimmy Dore Show to discuss his investigations into electoral manipulation by Google and other tech giants. He claims that Google’s underhanded machinations directed 6 million extra votes to Joe Biden in 2000

Jimmy, along with guests Craig “Pasta” Jardula and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger, talk to Dr. Epstein about his remarkable research and just how much duplicity is coming out of the company that long ago abandoned the “Don’t be evil” motto.


Do you believe this? I am going to look at some of the websites mentioned in this interview. Of course they are going to support Dr. Epstein, so I have to guard my skepticism.


The Lehman Disaster and Why It Matters Today

The institute for New Economic Thinking has a very important video The Lehman Disaster and Why It Matters Today

On September 15, 2008, Lehman Brothers, a giant investment bank with a storied history, filed for bankruptcy. The shock was profound; world markets melted down.


Most people have no idea of the seriousness of the situation unless they listen to this podcast. My problem is that I lived through these events and I cannot forget them.

The west is dead set against letting the BRICS (and China and Russia) from fixing this disease in the west. (More pointedly the west does not want an alternative system that could exist and prosper as the west collapses.)
