I'm a cleaner and I listen to stuff like this while up to my elbows in unpleasant things... You ever wonder if it's useful for working class plebs like me to know the approximate meaning of words like "communism" and "neo-conservatism". Given how all this stuff is so heavily propogandised and redefined, seemingly right under our noses, does it not simply play into the hands of the masters when I fill my head with these lofty ideas but find my feet rooted to the spot.

Socialization of costs and privatization of profits...another clear example of this was Amazon recently got a new headquarters in New York, which cost 6 billion dollars that the taxpayers of New York will pay for. Amazon doesn't pay for their own headquarters, they got tax subsidies and the working people of New York now essentially paid the 6 billion for the headquarters when their taxes could have gone to public goods and services that benefit themselves and everyone else, like the abhorrent subway system, roads, etc. But no. The (enormous) profits Amazon will make there will not be going into the hands of the people who ended up paying for their headquarters. Not a penny. If Jeff Bezos paid for the headquarters himself, he would still be the richest man in the world, but of course that cost went to the people of New York instead. Socialization of the costs, privatization of the profits, indeed.

So hard to gauge his political impact..so strange how such a large portion of America has purposefully ignored him when they knew he had the brains and insight to offer real dissent...maybe it's the nerdy soft voice and the incheck ego,maybe its the lazy antiintellecual attitude so prevalent in greater society or the way he stuck to colleges and academic world but this guy has covered alot of ground..He really took his criticism for a long tested ride and held his ground,stuck to his guns and never gave up or gave in....Big brain,casts a big shadow...

His talk included references to countless brutal genocides all around the globe purported by the elites. That's why he had not been pleased with the laughter heard. Jus a sign of their lack of information.

Haven't seen such a nervous MC before.

So amazing that he was warning about this 20 years ago, and it's really coming to a head now in 2018.

Let's keep in mind that a lot of people have been involved in creating this content, including several different videographers and people you got the tapes from, to say nothing of the speakers. While you have done all of the uploading, it's been a co-creative process that no one has claimed possession of or put any conditions on. I'm glad you decided to not go with a watermark. It would be best if people didn't have ads. Still, I see people at "theChomskyVideos" and other channels that pick these videos up as political allies (not assholes) who are making their own contributions to furthering this information.

Another great talk by Chomsky. However, while blaming governments and the elites, he fails to point out that democracy and the free market are also not compatible for the same reasons as for why the elites rig the game. Free Markets are fine if you are winning no matter who you are.

Edgar; I don't ever recall Chomsky saying. I suspect that all modern govs are far too corrupted by the intrigues and schemes of powerful interests, co-opted politics and subversive economic systems, brutal wars of conquest and territorial ambition, etc, to serve as a 'good' modern example. But perhaps something on a very local basis, small communal societies, or from historical anthropology re: pre-industrial eras, such as the equitable, popular-consensus mock-socialist gov of the Iroquois Confederation or the self-governing Cherokee Nation. Or early-phase isolated, 'simple' pioneer societies. The localized scale, intimate and pragmatic accountability of neo-primitive tribal and hunter-gatherer societies may be among the better models of 'good' government ~ which breaks down as the complexities of more sophistication, technology improvements, larger range of associations, availability of resources and 'outside' interests intrude on how people act, economies of trade/barter work, distribution of labor, resources are shared/distributed and managed affecting group dynamics.

I want to elaborate on why I watched this video so far. I have read basic economics, I have listened to many videos from Friedman, and I have read "The Road to Serfdom." I believe I have got the gist of neoliberalism. I am looking for someone with a system that is better than neoliberalism. I want a different point of view. In this video, I only got vague insinuations and snide remarks, not a system of thought. If this is the best of non-Chicago School economic thought, then pretty much Chicago/Austrian School wins by default.

His argument against minimizing the state is a contradiction. He says that minimizing the state gives power to corporations, and in the same time, he says, that big corporations need government protection in some cases. Which one can give more protection to a corporation, a big government with lots of $$$ or a minizied one? I think, the first! Anyway, the main issue is not with whether the government is small or not, but with government corruption, which is also a big argument beside minizing state!

@landonech

He isn’t arguing against minimization the state. He’s contrasting Neoliberalism in theory (minimization of the state, deregulation, privatization, liberalizing finance, etc.) with Neoliberalism in practice (dependency on state invention when markets fail, tariffs when free market functions lead to outcomes we don’t like, free markets so long as American private interests are met, etc.). While it’s true that Chomsky is a self-described Anarchist, here’s not really making any policy prescriptions here. Rather, he is highlighting the glaring contradictions built into Neoliberalism.

Aren't you annoyed by hypocrisy and duplicity ? Tax-payers subsidize R&D in electronics, aircraft and metallurgy(masked as military spending by the government, (SDI) for example), and at the same time are admonished not to rely on the nanny state. Are only the rich entitled to the privilege of taking over, once the R&D has been completed with public funds, and profits start coming in? Why should the big companies(Boeing, Cray, General Electric) be protected from market forces, when the average entrepreneur has no such privilege, and has to ruthlessly be exposed to them ? Shouldn't they fund their own research and not rely on public subsidy ?Then the tax-payers money could be spent on education, healthcare, housing for the homeless, parks etc. On this specific subject, the alternative that could be pursued by government, is dismantling what Chomsky calls 'the welfare state for the rich', and commit itself to social spending.

I strongly recommend his book World Orders: Old and New, where he substantiates all his claims and accusations, in a far more coherent manner. He has a long chapter, where he explains how the principles of free trade and classical economics, have been consistently violated in history by the developed countries(imperial preference, tariffs, state-intervention), while demanding that Third World countries conform to them, through the IMF and the World Bank. Unfortunately he is not a gifted lecturer though he compensates by being a moral titan
