With as many bubbles as we've got brewing right now, it feels more like foam. But what causes a bubble, and in particular, what's behind the bubbles that we're seeing right now in things like stocks and housing? Watch The Last Half Acre on New Ellijay TV to find out!

What happens when a system based on infinite growth starts running into real limits on nearly every front that make continued growth difficult or impossible? Well... gestures broadly at the world you're looking at it. The Last Half Acre is an attempt to explain five key aspects of this flat-lining growth (planned obsolescence, walls, trenches, bubbles, and scams) to show how connected these problems are to the problem of continued growth. Its not a coincidence that the largest bubble of all time and the Golden Age of Scams came along at once. So buckle your seatbelts and join us on a trip way beneath the surface to find out what's causing all of this and what we can do to course correct before it's too late.

Don't get me wrong, I would have said 90% of the same stuff about why DPA's are bad. But I wanted to look at the bigger picture of what we need to do to deal with corporations when they commit really extreme, deadly crimes like this. Are they gonna like being handed down life sentences for getting people killed? No. Do I care? Not even remotely. Maybe if they start getting held accountable for their crimes in court, we'll stop laughing when they get Luigi'd in the street.
Speaking of which, check out our video on Luigi Mangione and the US "health insurance" scam, which is called State of Denial.
And don't forget to add the New Ellijay TV app on all your Roku devices so you can watch this show and all our other programs directly on your TV. I installed it on my grandma's TV and you should too, she'll love it!
Turning an idea into reality takes action. Creativity isn't easy, and it takes guts to put yourself out there.
Nelson and filmmaker William X Lee talk creativity and art in this new show from Ellijay Television that asks "What's Stopping you?"
In our final installment of our Special Report about the death of UnitedHealth Insurance CEO Brian Thompson, we explore why insurance doesn't just fail to contain costs, they actually have every incentive to let healthcare costs rise out of control. And then we pivot back to the more political questions at the heart of all this. Why don't politicians or any of the other big corporations do something about the most rogue and abrasive industry on the block? The short answer is, they have class solidarity with each other, and if we want to reach a point where we can do something about these parasites, we're gonna have to show some class solidarity of our own.
Did you know we have a Roku app too??? Be sure to install the New Ellijay TV app on your own Roku device, your parents Roku, your Grandma's Roku, the Roku at the next hotel you stay at... really just any Roku that's not password protected. Who's gonna stop you, Brian Thompson?
Welcome back to Coconut Trees! On episode one, we covered Liberalism, the Great Depression, and the New Deal. Then in episode two, we tracked backwards a bit to get some more context about "populism", and talked about how the abolition movement was one of the first political movements in the US based on real mass appeal and not just the interests of the rich. So on episode three, we pick things up in the Gilded Age and look at how the parties had leveled out before FDR's populist New Deal took off during the Great Depression, and how the shifts and schisms within the parties in the mid-20th century led directly to the neo-liberal era we're in now.
