A Conversation with Nancy MacLean About How the Republican Party's New "Tax Reform" Bill is Really a Plan to Destroy American Society as We Know It

Saturday, December 9, 2017 19:01

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

There are two guests on this week’s episode of The Chauncey DeVega Show.

Nancy MacLean returns to explain the real impact and long-term devastation to the American people that will be caused by the Republican so-called “tax reform” bill. She is the William H. Chafe Professor of History and Public Policy at Duke University and author of the new book Democracy in Chains: The Deep History of the Radical Right’s Stealth Plan for America.

Democracy in Chains was also one of the five finalists in the 2017 National Book Awards for non-fiction.

During this episode of The Chauncey DeVega Show, Nancy and Chauncey discuss how the Republican Party’s “tax bill” is part of a bigger plot by the most extreme elements of the right-wing–including libertarians allied with the Koch brothers–to return Americato a time before the 20th century. With last week’s passage of their “tax plan” the Republican Party and the plutocrats (as well as Christian fascists) to which they are beholden to have taken one more stop closer to eliminating programs such as Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid with the ultimate goal of eliminating the “useless eaters”. Professor MacLean predicted this would happen in her new book Democracy In Chains.

John Feffer is the second guest on this week’s installment of The Chauncey DeVega Show. He is a foreign policy expert, philosopher, and author of the much-discussed new book Splinterlands which is a brilliant exploration of a future ruined Earth, an America in the midst of a de facto civil war, and how it call came to pass. This conversation with John is just a preview of a much longer full length episode that will air in the very near future.

On this week’s show Chauncey mocks the Democrats and other liberals who actually believe that forcing Senator Al Franken and others who have been accused of sexual harassment to resign will somehow shame the Republicans into moving against Donald Trump and Roy Moore. Chauncey also shares some wisdom from Hannah Arendt about Trump’s fascism and the threat posed by his human deplorable trash mob. And at the end of this week’s podcast Chauncey shares a story about meeting an angel in human form at the local library.

This episode with Nancy MacLean and John Feffer can be downloaded from Libysn and also listened to here.
