Please read them carefully to understand the data and assumptions on which their conclusions are based.

A YouTube video of Professor Slavoj Žižek on capitalism and fighting against it, worth your time. The message is clearly important: do you think before getting caught into acting without thinking? Sent by our graduate student Theodore Daskalopoulos with thanks.
