Robert Reich: “We've got to keep business and government separate. There's too much big money in politics as it is.”

We have the power. We don't have to accept corporate monopolies. We don't have to live with corporate money corrupting our politics.

We don't have to accept more tax cuts for billionaires. We don't have to pay more of our hard-earned cash to Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos or Mark Zuckerberg or the other billionaire oligarchs.
