The Power of Money in Politics

In the eyes of someone talking about this, I would say they see it as more villainizing the rich. We know that that has happened in the past during times of imperialism or colonialism. And also, if you look at the power of money in politics now, especially in the US, you need a certain amount of money to make any kind of waves in the political sphere here. That's true. And if you're increasing that wealth gap, then perhaps that's one of the goals. It might be a little bit before some of our listeners' time, but you remember growing up and hearing about the idea of trickle down economics. But I just want to present these counter arguments.
