Dear Professor,
I am interested in your thesis that productivity is the answer to the problem of inflation. If I understand correctly, it is somewhat similar to the theories of the Modern Money school and those of Ellen Hodgson Brown (Web of Debt) who would have the government inject money directly into the economy for work done. I like these theories—though I know they are not necessarily Marxian—but what concerns me is that they seem to lack a solution to the problem of the over-consumption of resources in the western world as well that of the inevitable decline in the need for human employment that comes with the advance of technology.
Thanks for your program. I would love to hear you address these problems, if you believe that they are such.

Who was great guest "Chris" on show just concluded?
What was the name of the blues song played between segments. It referenced being treated like a terrorist, in the lyrics.
Dr. Wolff, I would recommend taking out the copyrighted music (or not using it at all for the breaks) and have the archive be available for much longer. KPFA policy dictates that all programs with more than 30 seconds of copyrighted music will only be archived for 14 days on kpfa.org.
