How did the United States — the richest country in the world — become the worldwide epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak, with one person dying of COVID-19 every 47 seconds? We spend the hour with Noam Chomsky, the world-renowned political dissident, linguist and author, discussing this unprecedented moment in history, and its political implications, as Senator Bernie Sanders announces he is suspending his campaign for the presidency. Chomsky also describes how frontline medical workers and progressive organizing are giving him hope.

We don't have a "Healthcare" system, we have a "Healthprofit" system.

If I could give Noam Chomsky 10 years of my life I would gladly do it. There's not many people I could say that about.

Honest, revealing, shocking.  But also basically hopeful.  Thank you Mr. Chomsky.  I salute you as a member of planet Earth.

"This is much deeper than Trump." Absolutely. Americans need a deep look at themselves.

Were the Al Capone type gangsters really defeated in the 1930s or have they morphed into the ruler class of the modern era

So thankful for this voice of reason. Who will be the voice when Noam Chomsky stops speaking?

Professor Chomsky makes me proud to be a linguistics grad.  Hell, he makes me proud to be a human.  I wish we could get our act together and make him proud of us before we lose his light.

To the people commenting on how Chomsky is such a great mind, if you live in the United States, get up and do something. Heed his words and TAKE ACTION.
