8/12 - 8/13

Hey everyone, sorry about not posting yesterday, it was a little busy at work. Since I was on vacation last week and didn't listen to the program at all, I am going to continue identifying the questions in the order I hear them. So, if there were any new questions last week, I will have them out of order.

Yesterday, John was on line 2 and was playing for $340. The first question was new and he did not answer it correctly:

Question O: (Something like) What is merely the organized one class for oppressing the other?

Answer: Political Power



Today, Zach was the contestant on line 3, playing for $350. Again, Zach had some correct answers, but the third question was asked and he did not have the answer.

Question M: What epidemic of earlier epochs seemed an absurdity?

Answer: Over-production

Question E: What has the bourgeoisie torn away from the family?

Answer: The sentimental veil, and has reduced the family relationship into a mere money relation.

Question P: What is the passively eroding mass thrown off by the lowest layers of the old society?

Answer: The Proletariate

$360 tomorrow

Good luck everyone

-Until next time...

7/31 - Question J

Greetings, Greg was the contestant on line 2 today with $260 in the jackpot. He received a repeat question; J.

Good luck everyone.

-Until next time...

7/30 - Question F, Question N

Greetings everyone. First of all, thanks to Jeff for providing the question and answer from yesterday's game. I am glad Jeff gave us the info, because I had the answer written incorrectly (much like I had the answer to Question F incorrect).

Question F: What is veiled by religious and political illusions and a substitute for naked, shameless, direct, and brutal exploitation?

Answer: Free Trade (confirmed as correct)

Question N: What happens to the laborer right after he is set upon by the manufacturer?
