Had a great time listening, thanks!

On the “Marxism” – I am fairly convinced this is the right’s frustration with getting called “fascist” forever, however tendentiously. “If you’re still calling us fascists, we’re going to keep calling you Marxists.”

Good article! The 2008 financial crisis overdetermines so much especially with academia in a way comparable maybe only to the First World War. Perhaps the best way to incorporate both liberal and Marxist economics into a literature class (and one that might be useful to your students' futures while alas also turning you into a Nightmare Fuel Station Attendant) is discuss the business models of the Big 5.
