Economic Inequality: Beware Plutocrats, the Pitchforks are Coming! TED Talk by a fellow Plutocrat


"Beware, fellow plutocrats, the pitchforks are coming"

TED Talk by Nick Hanauer 

Nick Hanauer is a rich guy, an unrepentant capitalist — and he has something to say to his fellow plutocrats: Wake up! Growing inequality is about to push our societies into conditions resembling pre-revolutionary France. 

 

 Hear his argument about why a dramatic increase in minimum wage could grow the middle class, deliver economic prosperity ... and prevent a revolution.
