4. thanks, I just watched his latest
On a side note, I notice you sport the English D as your icon so I assume you might have some connection or even residency? I wonder if you cringe like I do when Rick describes The D as a 'bombed-out, empty city'? I totally get the point he's making and I don't disagree with that point, but shit man this city ain't empty, there's a ton of great stuff going on and lots of great people and great places...oh well, it's a bit of a thing with me. I've been all over the world, visited many cities in the USA, and the only one that I genuinely liked better than The D was NYC. But I'm off topic here, don't want to distract from Dr. Wolff's message.
Anyway, thanks. And hey right back atcha. |

5. yup, I love Wolff's analysis but.......
..... his Detroit descriptions are clearly those of someone who doesn't live here and watches too much TV.

6. kool.
Gonna have to do a check-in thread for Detroit DUers sometime. I think we're well-represented here. Keep on keepin' on, cousin. How much fun would it be to have a get together for everybody sometime? What a gas. Somewhere in Midtown perhaps. I can dream.

8. didn't you get the memo? We have to accept capitalism and its side effects. It's INCLUSIVE!
http://rdwolff.com/content/economic-update-economic-side-effects
He talks about the "Conference on Inclusive Capitalism: Building Value, Renewing Trust" http://www.inclusivecapitalism.org/ The four keynote speakers: The Prince of Wales Mark Carney Bill Clinton Christine Lagarde They have to convince us that capitalism is still the best system -- we just have to live with it and its side effects. |
