1/200 Episode 131 - Red, Hot Chile Politicians

Chile went from a free market laboratory under a murderous anticommunist dictator, to a neoliberal democracy with a conservative constitution. Now, it's just elected a socialist as president and is rewriting that constitution to protect its environment and make water a public good. Longtime DSA activist David Duhalde stops by the 1 of 200 studio to tell us how it happened.

1/200 Episode 127 - A Matter of Life and Debt

We're told that debt forgiveness is impossible, because all debts must be paid, and to do the opposite is to invite anarchy and chaos. But what if none of it was true? Renowned economist Michael Hudson tells Branko about the debt jubilees of the ancient world, how Jesus preached debt forgiveness, and how the finance sector has become a parasite feeding off the productive parts of the economy. 1/200 has just released a weekly newsletter!

Aotearoa has had an excellent response to Covid compared to most countries, but it's not beyond scrutiny. In fact there continue to be serious problems with Government action and strategy on the response. Last year politicians formed an Epidemic Response Committee to question Government decisions.

In 2018, nurses, midwives and healthcare assistants went on strike for the first time in 29 years.
