Robert Reich How Wall Street Priced You Out of a Home | Robert Reich

Over a quarter of all homes sold in the first three months of 2025 were bought by real estate investors.

If we want to make housing affordable again, we must get Wall Street out of our homes. https://youtu.be/q9TOGxDJ0TE?feature=shared

The Wage Gap Between CEOs And Workers Is Wideningβ€”And This Popular Company Is The Biggest Offender The CEOs of the country's lowest-paying large companies made $17.2 million on average last year. Their workers made $35,570.

The clearest picture of corporate greed in this country is CEO-to-worker pay ratios.

At the 100 lowest-paying major US companies, CEO pay averaged $17.2M in 2024.

Median worker pay at these companies was just $35,570.

That’s a ratio of 632 to 1.

How can anyone defend this?

Senate votes to confirm Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as health secretary Kennedy managed to allay the concerns of several key GOP senators over his anti-vaccine activism. Mitch McConnell was the lone Republican to vote against him.

52 - 48. All democrats and McConnell voting no. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

PSA: If the guy you want to be our next SECRETARY OF DEFENSE needs his mommy to go on tv to say he’s a good boy, he sure as shit shouldn’t be anywhere the fuck near the job of overseeing our armed forces.

Pete Hegseth is pledging to Senators that he WON’T drink while serving as Defense Secretary?!!!?
