Strikes sweep France, UK: Lessons for the fight against Wall Street

<p>On today's episode Walter Smolarek and Prof. Richard &nbsp;Wolff discuss how millions of workers across France and the UK have &nbsp;gone on strike in recent days and weeks to protest a raft of anti-worker &nbsp;measures, including efforts to roll back the &nbsp;right to strike and the right to retire with dignity. What can we learn &nbsp;from these episodes in the class struggle as Wall Street prepares &nbsp;similar attacks here in the United States?</p> <p>Professor Richard Wolff is an author &amp; co-founder of the organization Democracy at Work.
