This week's episode of Economic Update we discuss the underemployment of US college graduates, failed anti-Russian sanctions, the collapsed UK birth rate, and expanding wars in the Middle East. In addition, we will dive into the costs and risks in absence of a ceasefire in Gaza. Finally we Interview Dr. Harriet Fraad, host of Capitalism Hits Home and a clinical therapist. Professor Wolff and Dr. Fraad explore the post 1970's deindustrialization in the US, its impact on white males versus other social groups, and resulting US social splits.
