Robert Reich From Robber Barons to Bezos: Is History Repeating Itself? | Robert Reich

We’re in the second Gilded Age just like the first — when America’s wealth was in the hands of a few, money corrupted politics, and working people were abused and exploited.

It can be easy to feel discouraged, but the first Gilded Age teaches us lessons on how we can fight back.

So I'm curious. This means if I buy a $100 medication, they're going to pay me $550. Do I have to take the medication, or can I just buy it? 🤔

Frustrating irony that the village church here in Guatemala is shooting fireworks to celebrate the feast day of St. Francis sending our dog cowering under my desk. 😢

YouTube video by Robert Reich How to Take the Fight to the Oligarchy

People ask me all the time: how do we actually fight the oligarchy?

Here's my answer.

Thousands of people gathered to protest in a city park

Protesters walking to the meeting place. American circus flag. Fist in air. Protest signs.

Panoramic shot of the protest. People everywhere.

Protest sign: “Warmest of Birthday Wishes” written above a drawing of Trump being burned at stake.

Protests are not just about pushing back. They’re also a reminder that none of us are alone. We’re one giant team, and we have each each other’s backs. #kansascity #kc #nokings #ICE #protest

Medicare for All isn't radical.

What's radical is that we are the only major country not to guarantee health care as a human right.

Don’t believe me?

Listen to what these nurses have say:

Six peacemakers were arrested for crossing the property line at KC's nuclear weapon factory May 19. https://peaceworkskc.org/kkfi-asks-why-are-you-protesting-nukes/

RFK Jr. criticized me during a press conference this morning for saying that Trump is on the side of the oligarchs.

Maybe he needs a refresher on what oligarchy actually means.

Pete Buttigieg breaks down DEI for everyday folks…

“The opposite of diversity is uniformity. The opposite of equity is inequity. The opposite of inclusion is exclusion.” @petebuttigieg.bsky.social

Our problem: too many value uniformity over inclusion and they’re the ones running the government.

I just came through customs in the Guatemala City Airport. Couldn't miss that the computer the customs agent was using had a sticker on it. I hope it doesn't have to be replaced anytime soon.
