[...] (short term): The reduction of the rates of profit and growth in the United States was a consequence, on one side, of the strong pressure of workers for higher wages, and, on the other, of the radical increase in the price of oil and other commodities after the first oil shock in 1973. [...] It was also a long-term consequence of the transition from capital to knowledge as the strategic factor of production as the supply of capital had become abundant, or, in other words, as the supply of credit from inactive capitalists to active capitalists had exceeded the usual demand for it. These short-term and long-term factors meant that either the profit rate (the interest rate which, in principle, is part of the profit rate) should be smaller or that the wage rate should increase more slowly than the productivity rate, or a combination of the two so as to create space for the remuneration of knowledge. We have already observed that the new role assigned to monetary policy in the 1960s was instrumental in increasing the interest rate, but nevertheless, given the low profit rates prevailing from the 1970s up to the mid-1980s, discontent was mounting, principally among capitalist rentiers. [...] In the rich countries, despite their modest growth rates, the inordinate remuneration obtained by the participants in the rentiers’ and financists’ political coalition had as a trade-off the quasi-stagnation of the wages of workers and of the salaries of the rest of the professional middle class. It should, however, be emphasized that this outcome also reflected competition from immigration and exports originating in low-wage countries, which pushed down wages and middle-class salaries.

Zitat Bresser-Pereira

We must consider the two major changes that took place in the 1970s: the reduction in the profit rate of business corporations (short term) and a more long-term change, namely, the transition that capitalism was undergoing from "bourgeois capitalism" or classical capitalism to professional or regulated capitalism, from a system where capital was the strategic factor of production to another system where technical, administrative and communicative knowledge performed this role.

[...]

(short term): The reduction of the rates of profit and growth in the United States was a consequence, on one side, of the strong pressure of workers for higher wages, and, on the other, of the radical increase in the price of oil and other commodities after the first oil shock in 1973.

[...]

It was also a long-term consequence of the transition from capital to knowledge as the strategic factor of production as the supply of capital had become abundant, or, in other words, as the supply of credit from inactive capitalists to active capitalists had exceeded the usual demand for it.

These short-term and long-term factors meant that either the profit rate (the interest rate which, in principle, is part of the profit rate) should be smaller or that the wage rate should increase more slowly than the productivity rate, or a combination of the two so as to create space for the remuneration of knowledge.

Zitat Bresser-Pereira

In speculation, financial agents are permanently subject to self-fulfilling prophecies or to the phenomenon that representatives of the Regulation School (Aglietta 1995; Orléan 1999) call self-referential rationality and George Soros (1998) reflexivity: they buy assets predicting that their price will rise, and prices really increase because their purchases push prices up.

Sweet Home Alabama

"Big wheels keep on turnin'
Carry me home to see my kin
Singin' songs about the Southland
I miss Alabamy once again
And I think it's a sin, yes
Well I heard Mr. Young sing about her
Well, I heard ol' Neil put her down
Well, I hope Neil Young will remember
A Southern man don't need him around, anyhow

Sweet home Alabama
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Sweet home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you

In Birmingham they love the governor,
(Boo! Boo! Boo!)
Now we all did what we could do
Now Watergate does not bother me
Does your conscience bother you?
Tell the truth

[Chorus]
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you

Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers
And they've been known to pick a song or two
(Yes they do)
Lord they get me off so much
They pick me up when I'm feeling blue
Now how 'bout you?

[Chorus]
Sweet home Alabama
(Oh, sweet home, baby)
Where the skies are so blue
(And the governor's true)
Sweet home Alabama (Lordy)
Lord, I'm coming home to you
(Yeah, yeah)

[Outro]
My, Montgomery's got to stop there
Montgomery's coming up short"

Und darum ging's:

On his 1970 album After the Gold Rush, Neil Young wrote a song called Southern Man, which described the racism in the South as he saw it after visiting there:

I saw cotton
And I saw black
Tall white mansions
And little shacks
Southern man
When will you
Pay them back?

Village People

In the Navy

Where can you find pleasure
Search the world for treasure
Learn science technology
Where can you begin to make your dreams all come true
On the land or on the sea
Where can you learn to fly
Play in sports and skin dive
Study oceanography
Sign up for the big band
Or sit in the grandstand
When your team and others meet

[Chorus]
In the navy
Yes, you can sail the seven seas
In the navy Yes, you can put your mind at ease
In the navy
Come on now, people, make a stand
In the navy, in the navy
Can't you see we need a hand
In the navy
Come on, protect the mother land In the navy
Come on and join your fellow man
In the navy
Come on people, and make a stand
In the navy, in the navy, in the navy

[Bridge]
They want you, they want you
They want you as a new recruit
They want you, they want you
They want you as a new recruit

If you like adventure
Don't you wait to enter
The recruiting office fast
Don't you hesitate
There is no need to wait
They're signing up new seamen fast
Maybe you are too young
To join up today
But don't you worry 'bout a thing
For I'm sure there will be
Always a good navy
Protecting the land and sea

[Chorus] [Call & Response]
They want you, they want you
They want you as a new recruit
Who, me?

They want you, they want you
They want you as a new recruit

But, but, but, I'm afraid of water
Hey, hey look
Man, I get seasick even watchin' it on the TV!

They want you, they want you in the navy
Oh my goodness
What am I gonna do in a submarine?
They want you, they want you in the navy

[Chorus]
