PROFESSOR’S RANT TO STUDENTS: COPS ARE ‘PIGGISH,‘ CONSERVATIVES ARE ’SCHMUCKS,‘ AMERICA IS ’PERVERSE PLACE,‘ NEED TO REVISIT ’USEFUL’ MARXIST CONCEPTS

The talk was a panel discussion entitled ‘The Transformation of Poverty Governance’ and revolved around how America is handling it’s welfare state.

According to The University of Pennsylvania Professor Philippe Bourgois:

• Conservatives “brutalize the poor” and are “mean-spirited schmucks”
• Police are “rough, mean, vicious, nasty and piggish”
• Police will make up charges to incarcerate you
• Karl Marx is “useful” and we need to revisit his concepts
• The prison system in America is “an unjustifiable outrage”
• America is a “perverse place, not the Land of the Free”
• Doctors “make tons of money” off the poor
