The Stock Market - Siphoning To The Rich - Peter Joseph & Abby Martin


In this video clip, Peter Joseph is interviewed by Abby Martin on 'The Empire Files'. Their discussion focuses on the parasitic nature of the Stock Market.

Joseph began his professional career working in advertising and as a private equity trader on Wall Street. In 2007, he produced a live performance art piece in New York City that he entitled "Zeitgeist." A film version was created and released by Joseph online and went viral with millions of views.

Peter Joseph is the founder of the Zeitgeist Movement, a grassroots, worldwide organization that advocates an alternative economic system based on sustainability, cooperation and human need. His most recent book, ‘The New Human Rights Movement,’ delivers a startling exposé about the violent oppression that defines our economic order, while issuing an urgent call for global activism to unite to replace it.
