"How Oligarchs Dominate Our Democracies": Northwestern Prof Jeffrey Winters on Book "The Blind Spot"

Thank you. To be informed is so very important to me.

All enabled by Congress! Anti-trust laws have not been enforced. They have allowed monopolies to form. Investment Firms own the majority of housing globally!!!!!! Break them up or shut them down! They are going after all the farms, water resources, and energy now. At what point will congress act? At what point will the people rise up? When they're already in the street hungry? That would be too late. Homelessness up 40% since 2023 among WORKING PEOPLE!

There is no democracy without economic/financial justice and equality. A nation where a tenth of its population has no healthcare cover isn't a democratic one. A nation where 50% of its people live paycheck to paycheck and would fall into genuine financial trouble if a single emergency arises isn't a democracy.

More billionaires will become targets of fed up Americans! It has already begun. They could come to the table and end wealth inequalities without missing a dime. The more money you have, the less your ability to have compassion. That has been proven.

Thank you!

Even people on the lowest rung of the middle class have no idea how bad it is for the poor. It's empathy that can't be taught.

Excellent interview. Very insightful by Jeff Winters.

I totally agree. We have to stop this now while we can

Our founding fathers said capitalism without regulation is theft. Multinational cooperations are and have been the greatest threat to democracy and our nation.

Brilliant TRUTH
