Watching Harold Meyerson (editor in chief of The American Prospect) and Andy Stern (head of SIEU) chat about … stuff.
Stern says of the 100 largest financial institutions in the world, 50 are countries and 50 are companies. He says all progressives are fighting against the same foes, these multinational corporations, and it’s high time that they unite rather than confining themselves to silos (environmentalist, human rights advocate, union dude, etc.). That gets a big cheer.
Also notes — as I suspect many speakers will — that we do not yet appreciate the speed and scale of changes taking place in China.
