Video: 'Capitalism will always create bullshit jobs' | Owen Jones meets Rutger Bregman
"Rutger Bregman is the author of Utopia for Realists and he advocates for
more radical solutions to address inequality in society. His ideas
include the introduction of a universal basic income, a 15 hour working
week and...open borders.
When
I went to meet him, he told me politicians have failed to come up with
new, radical ideas, instead sticking to an outdated, technocratic form
of politics. He argues this has allowed politicians like Geert Wilders
and Donald Trump to slowly shift extreme ideas into the mainstream."
