Global Capitalism: September 2014 Monthly Update
Published on Sep 11, 2014
We are proud to announce that Democracy at Work is partnering with the Left Forum and Judson Memorial Church to continue the Monthly Economic Update lecture series.
These evening lectures begin with brief updates and analyses of major economic events over the last month.
Published on Nov 12, 2013
In addition to our usual shorter updates on major economic events in the news over the last month, major attention will be devoted to the following:
The federal government’s austerity policy, compromises with the Republicans over social security, medicare, Obamacare, etc.
The state and local governments’ austerity policies (summary of a major new report on state and local cutbacks)
How and why changes in federal, state and local taxes could remove the need for austerity and achieve tax justice.
