Requiem for the American Dream

Through this documentary i learned so much about a lot from economy to politics , and the way the professor Noam Chomsky explains it ,it just great!

The definitive discourse with Noam Chomsky, widely regarded as the most important intellectual alive, on the defining characteristic of our time - the deliberate concentration of wealth and power in the hands of a select few.

This film is being touted as the "final" film of Noam Chomsky. I don't buy that. He's not dead, for one thing. But also, the amount of footage out there is pretty daunting... people could be making films of Chomsky's speeches for years to come.

There isn't all that much here that you won't hear elsewhere if you're familiar with Chomsky's work. It's a standard denouncement of various systems and how Americans interact with their government. For those who aren't fans, it may also be really, really dry. Chomsky packs a lot of information into his words and is not the most exciting speaker. It is more accessible, though, than some of his broader work... unlike his views on foreign policy, he does not dig into decades of obscure history to support his theories.

Forget the bad review found here from the person from London. This is the real reason for the downfall of America and it has everything to do with the moneyed class wresting control of our government from the hands of the average citizen. Noam Chomsky is a world renowned American linguist, philosopher, cognitive scientist, historian, logician, social critic, and political activist who details the collapse of a once great country step by step. He makes it easy to understand and provides very specific examples of his elucidation of the hijacking of our economy and country. I find the perspective of a professor emeritus at MIT much more edifying than the simple minded who dismiss him as an extreme leftist.

He is a genius and explains our situation with big business, banks and the wealthy that control the politics. His explanation shows how Trump is fooling the ones who voted for him. By reducing taxes for the corporations the Wealthy will get bigger, There will be another stock market crash and the taxpayers will bail them out. Getting rid of the EPA powers, and school funding he will keep the poor in their place. (slaves for the Corporations. The corporation will still be in control with the lobby and no cap on what corporations can give to each party. He goes into detail and backs up his views with video history. It is a must see video.

This remarkable documentary is taken and ispired from the last long interview to the activist, thinker, historian, linguist Noam Chomsky in which he describes the socioeconomic landscape of the USA.

The ideas that Chomsky systematically addressed in the documentary were compiled in the book "Requiem for the American Dream: The 10 Principles of Concentration of Wealth & Power".

This text, examinates the 10 principles of wealth and power concentration and reveals the elite and powerful minority, who thinks of their own interests.

An unprecedented inequality in history.

Tracing half a century of policies aimed at favoring the richest at the expense of the majority, the elimination of the American worker, the disappearance of the living wage, the collapse of the dream of owning a home, the skyrocketing costs of higher education that they make possible advancement unattainable or cause students to be chained to suffocating debts, and the loss of solidarity.
