A Patron of Democracy at Work asks: "With so many types of insurances provided in the capitalist system, such as house, car, business, content insurances, and so on, would a democratic-socialist society need to provide such services through institutions or would the government take care of the unexpected incidents' cost?"
This is Professor Richard Wolff's video response.
Ask Prof Wolff is a Democracy At Work production.
