Rogue economist explains why capitalism is collapsin

In the first part of this latest Redacted Tonight VIP, Lee Camp talks with Professor Richard Wolff. A noted economist and author, Wolff is the founder of Democracy at Work, a nonprofit that advocates for workers having more of a say in the businesses they work for. He discusses the impact of having Goldman Sachs CEOs occupying positions of power in the White House, the likelihood of another financial collapse akin to the one in 2008, and the importance of promoting democracy in the workplace. In the second half of VIP, Lee shows an example of the lack of subtlety behind ExxonMobil CEO Rex Tillerson’s appointment as Secretary of State, and how an insurance CEO admits on Bloomberg News that he profits off of Americans who are a stone’s throw from financial ruin.
