Description
On today's episode Walter Smolarek and Prof. Richard Wolff discuss the Biden administration's budget proposal for the coming year on Monday, proposing an enormous increase to the military budget as the new Cold War intensifies. Biden also included a proposal to tax the ultra-rich, but is this really enough to make a dent in the enormous level of inequality in this country?
