In today’s episode, I sit down with Professor Richard Wolff for a raw, unscripted debate on capitalism, socialism, and the future of the American Dream. New York City’s election of a socialist mayor sets the stage, but the conversation quickly dives into the deeper forces splitting the country in two and the slow unraveling of a system that millions feel no longer works for them. We go back and forth on wealth, risk, entrepreneurship, worker power, and whether the U.S. is inching toward a historic transition far bigger than anyone realizes.
