Episode 218, “Statism: Education, Capitalism, and Systems of Control (Part 1)”
-Andrew For America talks about how education and economics can be (and often are) corrupted by the system of control or the type of "state" or “government” that a large group of people live under. A small group of people are always in control of everyone else, be it capitalism, democracy, socialism, whatever…and that small group of people end up dictating how everyone else in the society is “supposed to” live. Andrew plays clips from and reads pieces by Milton Friedman, Dr. Ha-Joon Chang, Matt Kibbe, Dr. Richard Wolff, Jordan Maxwell, Alec Zeck, and George Carlin to help illustrate his points.
-The song selections are the songs, "Firecracker," "I'll Be Fine, It's The World That's Not Right," and "Push the Button, Start The End" by the band Noise Republic (aka RPBLiK)
