12:53Now PlayingIn this clip from Friday's "NIGHT SCHOOL," host Marc Lamont Hill and guest Professor Jared Ball critically examine the concept of buying power and its implications for political organizations and movements. They discuss the flawed idea that encouraging frugality and responsible spending within the community can ultimately harm working people who depend on consumer spending. Professor Ball highlights how the economy's reliance on consumer spending, which constitutes 70% of economic activity, primarily benefits the wealthy, leading to significant wealth accumulation at the top.
