*PEOPLE GET READY! THE FIGHT AGAINST A JOBLESS ECONOMY AND A CITIZENLESS DEMOCRACY* (2016) By Robert McChesney and John Nichols.
Co-Authors Robert McChesney and John Nichols provide an excellent, in depth presentation talk on their significant new book, "PEOPLE GET READY: The Fight Against A Jobless Economy and A Citizenless Democracy" at the Town Hall Seattle, Washington on March 9, 2016. The video is 2-part with McChesney speaking first and then John Nichols.
(VIDEO, 1 hr. 25 mins.) *Make a NOTE to view this compelling discussion of the situation we now face based on the authors extensive two-year research into ongoing automation and technological advances in AI/Artificial Intelligence, robotics, 3-D Printing and driverless vehicles which will create 50 percent unemployment in the US in the next ten to thirty years, and serious political and social challenges.

(4,558 posts)Can point out their own post from the first half of this primary season when Clinton was way ahead in the GE polls calling for Sanders to drop out as a result of the polling..
We Sandernistas, even those of us able to hold our noses hard enough to vote for Mrs. Clinton, will not give up until neoliberalism is buried with a stake through its heart.
