IF YOU DON'T STAND FOR SOMETHING, YOU'LL FALL FOR ANYTHING
IF YOU DON'T STAND FOR SOMETHING, YOU'LL FALL FOR ANYTHING / Jim Hightower. - Jim Hightower suggests how to build a multicultural society by traceing the roots of radical political thought in United States history in the works of Thomas Jefferson, Thomas Paine, and James Madison. In contemporary United States society, however, 80% of the people are losing ground while the minority are taking over the economic and political systems. He uses Rogers Robert and Henry Krabbits as examples of the wealthy classes, and the need for a new democratic party to battle these trends. He calls for economic values instead of economic wealth, and a populist movement much like efforts of the late 19th century. - BROADCAST: KPFT, 1994.
