	Description:		This week on Economic Update, Professor Wolff discusses the declines of Europe: French municipal elections show Macron weakness, Germany rejects war on Iran, UK waffles on Iran and helping US, tribute to Trump deepens Europe’s subordination to US and China as economic giants in today’s world economy, especially in advanced technical areas. In the second half, Professor Wolff interviews Professor Teresa Ghiarducci on the crisis of pensions in the US, the “reforms” being proposed, and the grim future if pensions continue to decline. Economics Professor Richard D. Wolff and guests discuss the current state of the economy, locally and globally. The program explores alternative ways to organize, markets, and government policies.
