    Money talk continues with an introduction to the economics of parity.

    In this webinar, Randy Cook will present some hidden history, regarding US national wealth distribution in the 20th Century. He will highlight some implications for untangling present problems with our money system, a requirement for restoring prosperity and forwarding our struggle for social justice.

He wrote articles for AcresUSA for several years, exploring the dimensions of parity economics. In his spare time, Randy runs a pesticide-free pick-your-own blueberry farm in Michigan, and enjoys playing his hand-made guitars.
