Today, Doug Henwood, acclaimed editor of Left Business observer, and the host of Behind the News joins us to discuss the inception of Neoliberalism and how it was a reaction against Social Democracy.

We start off discussing the difference between American Neoliberalism vs European Neoliberalism, followed by the notorious Montpelerin Conference. We finally look at how Neoliberalism infiltrated our institutions and eroded our Democracy.

We close off with sharing stories about how both of us are Russian Bots and discuss his latest book is My Turn.
