Summary
<p>Richard Wolff kicks off a fascinating discussion- do recessions result when we drop the taxes on the very rich? Why haven't incomes for the bottom half of our population kept up with the cost of things even while the riches at the top have skyrocketed? Why did our government give a thousand billion dollars to the rich to bail them out- and far less to ordinary people- and now Republicans won't even spend a pittance to support those who are hungry and out of work due to this crisis?</p><p>See Privacy Policy at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy</a> and California Privacy Notice at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info</a>.</p>
