Citizens United Changed Everything | BlackRock, War, and Money | Cabin Fever 6
Published 4 weeks, 1 day ago
Description
If you want to understand why everything feels like chaos, start with the incentives. We talk about war goals that keep shifting, why nobody defines what “winning” even means, and how panic and turmoil can be used to push massive changes.
Then we get into the money side: Citizens United, why money got treated like speech, and how that opened the floodgates for influence. We also break down the BlackRock timeline from 2008, the bailouts, and how power grows when the system gets “saved.”
