Show Notes

So what exactly is "woke capitalism"? Have you noticed the fashionable trend of big corporations trying to prove how unbelievably politically correct they are? There was a bill to ban late term abortions in Georgia. That did not sit well with the leftist big corporations in Hollywood. They threatened to boycott the state of Georgia. Google has said that they want to sway the 2020 election away from Trump. Facebook, Apple, Twitter and YouTube ban voices that are to the right of Bernie Sanders. How "woke" are these big businesses? What's the best way to fight it? My guest today is Dr William Anderson, professor of economics at Frostburg State University. His article that we discuss is here: https://mises.org/wire/rise-woke-capitalism
