How to Make a Democratic Economy

(Recorded before Covid-19). The strength of the U.S. economy is often at the center of debate during an election season. But whether the economy is good or bad, there is no denying that America’s economy is neither democratic nor good for the planet. Is this inevitable, or is it possible to build a greener and more just economy? In this week’s episode of The Laura Flanders Show, Marjorie Kelly and Ted Howard of the Democracy Collaborative talk about their new book The Making of a Democratic Economy and explain what steps we need to take in order to create an economy that works for everyone.
Guests:
Marjorie Kelly, Executive Vice President and Senior Fellow, The Democracy Collaborative
Ted Howard, Co-Founder and Executive Director, The Democracy Collaborative

Thanks for this videos, it really helps ??????? Well i will also say this here, for me i still find cryptocurrency very important mostly when it comes to bitcoin trading due to the fact that bitcoin is still very bullish. I so much advise everyone to get involved in day trading so as to grow the little we can afford with a working strategy/daily signals, However its been of massive success for me because i have been trading with Mr Nicholas strategy/daily signals with a proper guides in day trading for over 6 months now. During my first 5 weeks of trading with Mr Nicholas daily signals i was able to accumulate and grow my portfolio from 1.1btc to 6.8btc which you would agree is a very good profits. I will kindly advise we should grow the little we hold ahead of the major bull run, Myron can be reach via instagram @nicholas__fxtrade for inquiries into profitable trading systems.....

I like to call it Commoning. Universally funded collectives for essential services, cooperatives for the non-essential goods and services. I think it's also essential to end the concept of land ownership, [which leads to a disconnect with nature, and the consequences we see happening now]. But how we acheive that is beyond me. We also need to structure it at the municipal and international levels, not the national.
