Description

On  today's episode Walter Smolarek and Prof. Richard Wolff discuss the  state of the U.S. economy. With the Federal Reserve poised to slow down  its rate hikes at least temporarily, is it true that the economy is  headed for a so-called soft  landing? How healthy or sick is US capitalism? Are mainstream  economists missing the big picture?
Professor Richard Wolff is an author & co-founder of the organization Democracy at Work. You can find his work at rdwolff.com.
