July 2, 2020. Economist Richard D. Wolff, Democracy at Work.
*** Richard Wolff with Thom Hartmann. We are at the apocalyptic stage in the economy and a huge dive could be on the way. Commercial rents have not been paid by shops or offices and now the commercial landlords are taking them to court or going bust themselves. Unless something radical happens, the US is heading towards being like a third world country. More jobs were announced today, but the unemployment rate is still three times the number it was in February. You dont see Trump mentioning that figure, just how wonderful he has been with the new jobs. July 3, 2020. *More RD Wolff, https://www.rdwolff.com/
- If Biden Wins The Election He Should Look More To FDR As A Role Model, AlterNet, July 7, 2020.

remedied long ago. We could be headed to pay a huge price for the decades of delay and dysfunction- democratic collapse and decline into a Third World nation as noted. Unless big changes are begun, immediately.
