This week, guest Richard D. Wolff returns for a third interview on HFTF. A professor of economics emeritus at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst, and most recently the author of Capitalism Hits the Fan: The Global Economic Meltdown and What To Do About It (2009), Rick has been on the show before talking about the origins of neoliberalism, and the current housing market crisis in the United States. In this new episode Rick discusses the economic crisis, unemployment, and debt. Towards the end of our conversation, Rick explores the role that media events like the Royal Wedding last month play in our culture. Take a listen to this new episode and also be sure to visit www.rdwolff.com to read Wolff’s recent writings and to listen to his new radio show, “Economic Update,” on WBAI-New York.
