Alternative Visions- Prighozin’s Rebellion, Student Loans&Biden’s Neoliberal Policy Regime - a podcast by Progressive Radio Network

 Dr. Rasmus examines some facts about Russia’s mercenary Wagner group and its leader, Prighozin, recent mutiny. What are some interesting facts behind the origin of the rebellion not reported by the US mainstream media? The show next addresses in depth the US Supreme Court’s decision to scuttle Biden’s proposed $10-$20K student debt forgiveness proposal. Why 43.5m student debtors can’t get any relief, while 25m small businesses had their $900B in loans under the Covid PPP program expunged by the government and SCOTUS said nothing? The scam called the Student Loan program is discussed in detail and what the SCOTUS decision may mean for all businesses. The show concludes with an examination of whether Biden’s economic policies (aka Bidenomics) represent a crisis for US neoliberal policy in general. Why Biden’s policies are classic neoliberal but also reveal a growing crisis in US neoliberal policy in its monetary, fiscal and trade/dollar variants.
