The problem is billionaires

Ad copy

Billionaires are a structural problem in a democracy in a way most millionaires simply are not. A millionaire can be a doctor, a small business owner, a lawyer, or someone who spent decades building something valuable in their community. In many parts of the country, especially in major cities, a million dollars in assets no longer represents unimaginable wealth. Billionaires exist in a different category entirely. At that scale, wealth becomes political power, media influence, lobbying power, and institutional leverage. When too much economic power concentrates into too few hands, democratic institutions start competing with private empires. That doesn’t mean success is bad. It means a healthy country needs strong public institutions capable of balancing concentrated private power. We should want people to succeed. We should also want a system where working families can still afford housing, healthcare, education, and a future. - Erik🇺🇸
