Posted on Apr 22, 2015

Noam Chomsky discusses how so-called free trade agreements, such as the proposed Trans-Pacific Partnership, enrich corporations while creating migration crises. Other topics include the Islamic State group and the media. The video conversation occurred at an event hosted by acTVism Munich in Munich.

9. Looks like Chomsky is a "Warrenista" as well.

It's interesting that there are some on DU who call folks who oppose the TPP "Warrenistas". I think Chomsky does a great job of de-constructing the language of the TPP and it's actual intent.

10. As Noam says

we're hurtling towards what he's predicting. And we're doing so with seemingly unstoppable momentum. It's EASY to understand how Obama can refute Senator Warren's contentions - he obviously being just one more paid for cog in the burgeoning corpratocracy that's sucking in EVERYTHING as it rolls towards a mega-doom of unimaginable breadth and scope. The grooving stock market and the steady uptick of rather uninspiring jobs is out there like a sedative on a stick. What's gonna happen is that we're going to follow that dangling inspiration right over a cliff eventually. Just what that cliff will look like has yet to show itself thru the mists of our future - but it's there. And I suspect how soon we topple over it will depend on how powers winnow out with the 2016 elections.
