Democracy and its Prospect’s” he spoke why you can not have a capitalist
democracy. During the 18 minutes he speaks about one of the architects
of modern Capitalism, Adam Smith, Laissez-faire Economics, people’s
misinterpretations of Adam Smith specifically when it comes to what
personal freedom actually is. He tears into what Modern Libertarianism
has become in the US. He talks about the transitioning economy from
being technology based to biology based. He finally discussed how people
income impact political decisions and referred to the Orwellian term
“Unpeople “to describe the largest percentage of people who are
disenfranchised from political decisions and power and believes as
compared to the occupy movement that the country is being rules in a
Plutocracy ruled by the top 0.1% of wealth..
