The Jimmy Dore Show
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has earned a reputation as a heroic defender of the Ukrainian people, but his commitment to Ukrainian workers is not nearly so heroic. Zelensky has signed into law a bill eviscerating workers’ collective bargaining rights. The bill is part of a larger neoliberal plan to privatize public utilities and property while creating a more “inviting” post-conflict environment for investment in the embattled country. And if workers have to pay the price, so be it.
Jimmy and America’s comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Zelensky’s heel turn against Ukrainian workers in favor of potential future capitalist investors.

Privatization has saved more lives than socialism has killed and that is saying something
Wow. Zelensky really learns fast from the American establishment!
Same thing happen in Yugoslavia during the 90's when NATO so called "defensive organization" bombed "military" targets like factories, schools, hospitals and infrastructure that had no military value at all, then the democrats came into power and privatized over 8000-9000 businesses and factories. Pretty much weeks after that western tycoons moved in and bought out their main competition for scraps, Tobacco company from Nis Serbia is a perfect example of that which was the main competitor of Philip Morris in Europe…
Without democracy in the work place your total fascist
This is government aided oligarchy monopolization, not capitalism.
Nah! It's "so hard to believe!" His army is literal na zi s…
Jajajajajaja god I love you Jimmy
First they came for the Communists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Communist
Then they came for the Socialists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Socialist
Then they came for the trade unionists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a trade unionist
Then they came for the Jews
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Jew
Then they came for me
And there was no one left
To speak out for me
In the end, it’s all about capital and its ruthless pursuit of profit.
Some former Soviet countries gave all their citizens vouchers to purchase the state owned companies. They could sell the vouchers or exchange them for stock in the companies.
Ukraine is a model WEF country. The path is being paved to implement every WEF plan for the future of all member countries. WEF is the epitome of modern day Fascism.
True , except most dictators have been left wing!
putin is a literal nazi. People get arrested for holding up a blank piece of paper. But Jimmy is a Kremlin shill so he keeps quiet about that.
8:49 This can be extrapolated all the way to consistently winning elections. The Republican and Democratic establishment don't care if they win or lose, as long as the graft economy continues.
Liberalism births capitalism and through the growth of capitalism, you get fascism. And the American conservative is the praetorian of capitalism. Conservatives conserve the liberal ideology of free market capitalism and when the capitalist takes over the government and the military using their wealth then you get fascism.
Class war… The rich Vs the poor.
This will open the way for Amazon,Walmart and McDonald’s 🦅
Thanks that will be the freedom and democracy they are fighting for.
Ukraine news oh boy👎
Capitalism turned Cannibalism.
If I read right…. This guy is buying up villas in Switzerland…an on his way to becoming a billionaire.
Ukrainian government extremely corrupted, criminals and idiots
Let’s not blame Short ass coke head,he’s not calling the shots in Ukrain😂😂
Just making Laws up on the spot umm Notice how all dictatorships just pass a law for justification of the dictator
Zelensky is just doing the Jewish 2 step shuffle. Who could be surprised?
Right wing dictator? Jimmy, show me and example of even 1 right wing dictator that exists right now?
Private Land umm
caring about workers is anti-semtiic
There has to be a separation of corporations and state .
I guess who is going to receive a juicy comision for each mandatory privatization ?¿?¿ yes ¡!¡ the clown ¡! the corrupt puppet working 24×7 not for ukrainians, but for the west also corrupt companys waiting for these to happen.
Corporations don't run a country unless they are public private partnerships with the govt or FASCISM, which is now what we are. Thanks to the politicians who work fir donors only not then people…unions have always been in a partnership with big govt. This is why calif is broke. Money doesn't grow on trees
Jimmy's downfall is his rigid attachment to socialism, end the "evil capitalists" troupe. I would love to educate Jimmy on socialism, he seems willing to admit when he doesn't know.
Ukraine is a lefty's wet dream
They already have znd had oligarchs that ran zukraine. Our state dept. Soros and many politicizns family mem ers from both sides ha d been getting their piece of the pie
These are typical IMF moves. Is how they screwed Greece not many years ago. Sad
It's Jewish imperialism, Jimmy.
It was about the nszis killing Russians in Eastern ukrsine. Not oil, gas etc..just like we didn't go into Iran for oil…stop the ideology propogands from Bernie…and other socialists. Class wsrfsre
Well I never, sounds like what's happened to UKs nationalised industries that became privatised by Margaret Thatcher's government These industries were asset stripped and mostly disappeared, new type of worker has emerged, called zero hour employees.
