Robert Reich: Who Rigged The System-And How To Fix It | Town Hall Seattle

- Millions of Americans have lost confidence in our political and economic system. After years of stagnant wages, volatile job markets, and an unwillingness by those in power to deal with profound threats such as climate change, there is a mounting sense that our system is rigged to serve only those select few with enough money to secure a controlling stake. With characteristic clarity and passion, Robert Reich shows how wealth and power have interacted to install an elite oligarchy, eviscerate the middle class, and undermine democracy.
Drawing on the example of Jamie Dimon-the chairman and CEO of JPMorgan Chase-Reich exposes how those at the top propagate myths about meritocracy, national competitiveness, corporate social responsibility, and the "free market" to distract from their accumulation of extraordinary wealth and power. Reich outlines how, instead of answering the call to civic duty, this socioeconomic elite has chosen to uphold self-serving policies that line their own pockets and benefit their bottom line. Join Reich for an exposé that demystifies the system so that we might instill fundamental change and demand that democracy works for the majority once again.
Robert B. Reich is Chancellor’s Professor of Public Policy at the Goldman School of Public Policy at the University of California, Berkeley. He has served in three national administrations and has written fifteen books, including The Work of Nations, The Common Good, Saving Capitalism, Supercapitalism, and Locked in the Cabinet.

Unfortunately, some of us, (myself for instance) are not employed. We are struggling to survive - I am fortunate to be a Retiree (age 73) - living on Social Security (and nothing else) -- but I am fearful because I could be suddenly faced with no income at all -- and lose the retirement home that I am living in (in fear these days).
A brilliant mind and a flawless orator who has spent his life advocating for the chronically disadvantaged members of our society. Professor Reich is a critically needed counterweight to the heartlessness, ruthlessness, arrogance and ignorance of the current administration.
Not really ...
@@michaelweber5702 What do you mean by 'not really'?
Remember how he was a part of the Clinton Administration? It was then that he must have realized that the Democratic Party was the socially liberal wing of the Republican Party.
Just curious how do you feel now about America and this administration running it. You can keep pretending that Trump was so bad for America but this administration just keeps making the last administration look better and better.
Well yes, but Reich is much more than a "brilliant mind and a flawless orator". It is true that the "chronically disadvantaged members of our society" would benefit from radical changes in our society involving greater democracy, a fairer tax system. our educational systems, our concept of
what is good for the international community. We could start by using proportional representation in our voting system and making bribery illegal. I am talking about lobbying.
I have been late in hearing this man. He is a hero completely in touch with what’s going on.Amazing to hear him be inclusive of all groups suffering from “the harshest form of capitalism in the world” …”workers have not had a raise to reflect inflation for forty years” I will buy his book!
You're delusional, wages have risen faster than inflation under Donald Trump, never on the Democratic administrations, California is a flush toilet, 95% of all the businesses in San Francisco have closed, because Democrats have legalized shoplifting, then they accused the stores of being racist for closing unprofitable stores, He's the most disgusting lying scumbag I've ever seen in my entire life
you are right, as a Veitnam vet and necessary worker I can attest we are fed lip service in lieu of appreciation.
I am a boomer from KY, and never understood why people keep Mitch McConnell in office. I have never voted for him, and my hope is this November will be his last.
@Patty. A boomer from KY?
Is this prison slang or something?
@@Johnconno weirdo
Amen! My brother is a boomer in Lousville, and can't understand it either!
@@pattyl7244 Boomers are babies born after WWII
McConnell is Batman compared to Steve Cohen in Tennessee. Shame on Tennessee.
The key here is for people to wake up and vote for leaders that do not take money from business-interest lobbyists. This element of social change is going to take a looooong time. Dark days ahead...
I listened and cried for the American worker who really does nothing but work for no real reward. I was in that system too long as a sole business person and I worked SO HARD for virtually nothing, and I got about 1 or 2 thank you's. I just kept assuming my reward was coming... But, I was similarly used in my family of origin where nothing I did was seen to be of much value. It has been such a hard life to look back on it makes me cry for all the working people who wind up feeling pretty much like no one in spite of their efforts to give out their best quality. To die in the pandemic is a relief from the pain of carrying other people's burdens in loyal sacrifice of self... a victim of a world that is so very, very unfair especially to minority people and women.
The American worker has nothing to offer. He is unproductive, expensive and drug addicted. Stop taking drugs, folks.
I hear you.
All Americans need to go on strike at one time, and demand social services for all.

p.s. Until we can undo this horror wrought by the Citizens United decision, and reform campaign finance, then candidates running for office in this country will be beholden to those who financed those seats. So disheartening.
Andrew Yang has a policy idea for that called, democracy dollars. Each person gets 100 dollars to use to to give to their candidate of choice. So if a candidate gets 100,000 people to choose their candidate they will receive 10 millions of dollars with which to campaign with but no corporate money, etc., is allowed.
It isn't just campaign finance. All our congress is bought off by the biz lobby, Chamber of Commerce, and foreign lobbies such as NASSCOM, rhcusa.com, USIN-PAC. Once in office, they get barraged with millions in back door bribes. Nothing is ever done about it.
History shows the people have to mobilize and organize for anything to change. Pls. spread the word. Do something no matter how small. Bernie was on the right track. But he was a little too far left to get enough popular support. And, of course, the DNC and the system as a whole was rigged against him as well. I always thought how ironic (but predictable) that they called him 'Crazy Bernie', when, in reality he made perfect since and Trump is actually the certifiable nutcase_ and yet so many support him. Also, if any election was rigged, it was against Bernie in favor of Hillary. This, my friends, is what we're up against. I'm hoping some one w/ Bernie's views will step up and lead the revolution from the grass roots.
Citizens United is the Democrats excuse for losing. Undoing Citizens United doesn't mean a damn thing as long as Democrats keep trying to be Republicans.
Dear Mr Reich. I'm South African but have begun watching your videos - because you are decent and honest. How is it possible that these qualities have become so rare? Thank you for your wonderful example.
Its simple: most people are completely under the spell of money because they are afraid they will be nothing if they are not rich. And in America, its mostly
true that the non-rich count for nothing!
@@bryanmachin2152 , really ?
This country is almost fatally defective at this point. I'm sad I lived to see it, and my kids and grandkids are going to have the hardest time, they just don't seem to know it yet. I'd buy books if I could afford them, disability doesn't go far. The homeless population in Jax, FL exploded during the last couple years, and a lot of us are barely hanging on by our fingernails. This is unsustainable. My husband was an "essential" worker, at starvation wages.
I was maimed for life on the job and fired 4 weeks before retirement with no insurance and a newly acquired pre-existing condition at 55. Killing employees is common at US airlines incorporated in Chicago.
Passengers were almost killed on my flight that maimed me for life but my carrier denies the efficacy of MRIs so the passengers almost killed are the risk management's problem. CZcams showed my airline beating the hell out of a passenger and I thought that wrong. I was fired for trying to prevent TBIs. cervical sponsylosis trauma, pneumothoraxes, and death at 36,000ft. Killing passengers and crew is acceptable in Chicago.
Thank you, Mr. Reich, for all your hard work. I don't know how you keep from banging your head into a wall. I try to explain our "system" this way: In our system, business exists solely to make money; it's it's raison d'etre. It "behaves" like a shark, intent on only one thing, to satisfy it's appetite. If a business were a human, we'd liken it to a sociopath, as it measures it's success solely on its own gain. Regardless of what the business advertises about "caring" about us consumers, it doesn't. I wouldn't, nor don't, even expect it to. That's where well-crafted regulations enter in. "Regulations" are a way of imposing a "conscience," if you will, on business. They're the vital, protective buffer between the vast imbalance of power between workers/customers and business.
There is presently no conscience in the White House. Read on...

The only way to right this ship called America before it sinks is to lean Left.
Most of the regulations within the last 40 years revolve around making it harder for a small business to operate in favor of big business that can afford the regulations. Organic farming and cannabis are two examples.
@@susansauceda9879 True enough. Corruption of gov't by big money allows the big fish to get away with basically anything, while small business lack the lawyers and clout to get the same attention.
I am so glad that I came across the Seattle Town Hall site, I live in Vancouver Washington, where you live in Oregon as far as the majority of the media is concerned. We have had an ongoing problem of even some of our ZIP codes being classified as Oregon, which is a problem when you're dealing with businesses where the difference in state laws can be an issue. I was a medical billing specialist, and possibly public enemy number one as far as Blue Cross Blue shield Humana and quite a few others in Oregon were concerned ; so being retired is probably a good thing. Medical professionals are obligated to adhere to the laws of the state they are licensed to practice in. They cannot dictate Oregon laws to Washington State physicians or medical specialties or the clients they serve in Washington State. Auto insurers paying for medical and chiropractic treatments, had possibly classified me as an enemy of the state. While I did work to correct the ZIP code problem, I also audited their audits, aka EOMB's explaining why they rejected things that they didn't want to pay for., And professional justification. ... My audit of your audit says professional standards are different in Washington State you cannot impose Oregon professional standards that are entirely different upon Washington professionals, and,btw, if these Oregon physicians are licensed as chiropractors we will be happy to accept their opinions until then ...pay up! I just had to share this, probably because Robert Reich gets me all feisty! This is just a wonderful form, so yeah I'll get to your donation site.
Living Marginally From Paycheck to Paycheck almost forces that employee to stay at that job .
The employee doesn't have the luxury or time to seek employment elsewhere !
Thank you, Professor Reich, for your thoughtful and deeply considered social issues that affect all of us here in America today.
Those essential workers are not paid much better than Minimum Wage . Some are giving up and walking away from their jobs !
So would you say the US's system is now considered a technocratic oligarchy?
So who is the small group of people who have control in the US? The daily experience is that absolutely nobody in the US seems to be in control of anything, right now. :-)
@@lepidoptera9337 Well possibly follow the money, yes? Who are the richest, could be a good start, yes?
Im amazed at how few essential workers got sick or died. I ssw middle aged barman home carers local shop assistants carry on even disobeying mask guidance when they finally were made masks law.
Please CZcams stop repeatedly force feeding me things I've already watched!
Those who make enough don't care about any of this. And it's almost gotten worse than it was.They live in their bubbles. Unless/until it happens to them, and burst that bubble, they won't care. And I really don't believe most will ever see it. I worked my entire life until my spine broke. I never wanted to be rich. All I wanted was enough to not live on the ragged edge of homelessness (and I was at one point), and I don't believe that will ever change for me.
"The game is rigged. It's a big club...and you ain't in it" ~ George Carlin There CANNOT be a nation of CEOs. Even if everyone was qualified. Also, the 1% can't support the 1% indefinitely. Everyone deserves a living wage.
When I was young, a millionaire was considered filthy rich. Now they talk about being billionaires. Really? Why do people feel some people should be billionaires? Do they know that most of these billions they have are taken out of the economy and if spread around to the peasant workers (so they wouldn't need government assistance), would be circulating in the economy? When we talk about breaks for millionaires vs. billionaires (even with inflation), we should acknowledge that 1 million seconds is 11.6 days while a billion seconds is 31.7 years. But the facts are that minimum wage is plenty, if not too much, to get by on while billionaires are left with a mere 100s of millions to get by on (after taxes) and can barely make ends meet. Poor, poor billionaires, I feel so bad for them I'm about to cry...I need a tissue.
We're actually beginning to talk about trillionaires.
They never mention the Trillionaire Rothschilds.
I'd call him Bob and expect some humility. Apparently all his problems became known after his departure from DC but before his allowance into academia at Berkley. Thank God he found San Francisco to live!
Robert Reich mentioned the social conscience of Louis Brandeis, who expressed strong support for Henry George's approach to the elimination of poverty and inequality. In 1916 Brandeis wrote to Mary Fels, widow of the industrialist Joseph Fels regarding her support for "the establishment ... of a single tax colony in Palestine." Brandeis wrote that the "project will prove a most important contribution, not only to the single tax, but also the Zionist cause." As someone who first read Henry George's works in the early 1980s I have found it tragic that his remarkable analysis of how the world works was ignored or misrepresented by economists and others who are supposed to be governed by objective, scientific analysis.

Rent and mortgage be like:
"Gotta pay otherwise the house will vanish into thin air!"
Thanks The system is nasty. greed
Nothing can be free, because when anything is free nobody will work for it. When everyone quits working the system collapses. Without failure there can be no success. It is the threat of failure that ensures success. Life in a world where nobody can fail there will be little to gain by working.

Didn't take long for this to become a partisan diatribe
I am from Brazil and trying to implement the idea in my town the idea of a raise in minimum wage and I would love to have your feedback on the matter since you guys have done so. Thanks in advance.
A wage must support a person for a day. Otherwise it is theft. Maybe it does not make the person rich but it must pay for simple food, clothing, shelter. Any time the minimum wage is raised, it causes the prices of everything to rise so the person is not better off. Currency must be based on something; not printed out of thin air. Historically, basing the currency on gold at least in some part keeps the politicians from printing it out of thin air. They have to print it based on the amount of gold they have. It is the only think that will restrain them. Consider the power they will have if they are able to have digital money, criptos - that they can increase so easily. Also, if a citizen falls out of favor with the powers that be, their entire wealth can be wiped out with the touch of a button. Thus the person can be totally controlled. Every transaction he makes will be known and thus controlled. As if that were not enough, they want control over the health system. Then they will have control over life and death as well as wealth through digital currency.
@@danneblume308 That is a normal misconception, that raising minimum wage raise prices automatically. This millionaire explains it better in a few minutes. czcams.com/video/th3KE_H27bs/video.html

White Trump voters are just as marginalized. They are outside of the active economy of this country with no way back in. Why do you think they are lashing out? One can cut the desperation of the irrelevant with a knife. Their hate for minorities is simply misdirected. Taking some marginal level of revenge on people who are even worse off than they are is not going to help them.

Why can't the president make a speech like this that address the situation and conditions people are going through today in America? These are the real issues he should be more concerned about. Not the hate message he's sending that only serves to divide us as a people. I wish he would see this and take a page from your book of knowledge. His incompetence makes the office of the president looks bad. Even an uneducated person like me can see that. Shame on you mr, president!!

EXACTLY what Trump is doing! Dismantling the Federal Reserve Bank and rebuilding a system based on the sound money of 5,000 years - gold!
@@danneblume308 Sorry, but this can't be done. For America to back its entire currency in gold, we would have to conquer the entire world's gold supply, and even then it would come up short. Our money will not lose its value so long as the world needs us a the world's biggest market. And that won't change, because the standard of living of most Chinese people is simply to low for them to replace us. And also, the Fed is the reason we haven't had another great depression so far. It screwed up in the 1930s, but has been much better in the last two crises.....so far at least!
How do you get people back to work when they get more from unemployment then when they work.
Their is lot of work out their if they want to work.
The rich make the laws to promote financial gain by any and all means as long as they legal. The only line that matters is The Bottom Line, There is no Ethical line to cross. In principle Capitalism is a good thing, but as it stands now it's just profit from the exploitation of less fortunate , the disadvantaged, and of course the poorest. Nothing wrong with making money, accumulating wealth- but without concience, no regard for how it impacts real peoples lives is obscene. Inhuman. How much $ is enuff

You socialists always use Sweden as the example to follow. Well, you have a total population of 10 million people. It compares to LA or NYC. Also Sweden is not a socialist economic system. It's a CAPITALIST business model with a socialist type government system. It is a small country where poverty is very low and the cultural norms are practiced pretty much throughout the entire country. They have a small GDP where they all work together to produce and maintain their excellence in their specialties they export so they all agree to this system that benefits most of the populace. That is not the case for the US. However I do believe when we did have an actual capitalist system where the government used socialist laws to control the size and power of corporate monopolies, to enforce safety and labor laws to protect the people from oligarch tyrants like we had during the Robber Baron years, much like we have today. Today we have crony capitalism for the workers and socialism for the oligarchs running the show.
Yes, smaller population, but also a smaller work force. Bigger population=bigger work force, who logically should be able to produce more

"Imagination is more important than knowledge. Intuition is the most important... If you think you know well (about life, peace, happiness, health, relationship, love, investment & wealth), you are preparing to die... Peace (serene mentality among family, community & society members) can not be kept by laws or weapons. It can be kept by understanding... The clever don't understand the wise. The wise understand the clever because they used to be clever before " - Albert Einstein, "No change, unless (stem cells) reborn... God is for the alive, not the death" - Jesus Christ, "The best wealth is soul wealth... Work God's works 7 weeks is better than praying for 7 years." - Mohammad, "A dog is not considered good dog for it can bark. A man is not considered good man for he can speak (or write)... When the mind is pure [Universal mind (interfaced subconscious mind, conscious mind & superconscious mind)], bliss (perfect happiness in all the joints, tendons & muscles) follows like shadows that never leave." - Buddha, "Cleverness & wisdom are not the same things... Understanding yourself is enlightenment. Understanding others is wisdom" - Lao Tzu

Mr . Reich , have you ever read Noam Chomsky ? You would have gotten a clearer view of what you see in Washington DC !
Does He give any solution to any thing
well he doesn't know the truth about trump, so I guess he's clueless about most things? Sounds like we have a guy who's confused propaganda with truth. HIs critiques of the propaganda is not worth much in the real world.
So how is the calamari lawsuit going? Is Trump back in the White House, yet? :-)
I'm glad our country doesn't have the system America does. In my country, everyone has a right and *obligation* to vote, so the results are truly a reflection of the majority's will. Also, I can decide on issues alone. I don't have to label myself or register as belonging to any party, so I can't be targetted for or against anyone. No-one knows who I will vote for or voted for in the last election. I find it really horrible that people in America who are not actually politicians call themselves 'Republicans' or 'Demoncrats' and feel they have to vote for one party and hate everyone who wears the opposite label. Americans aren't Americans voting for what's best for America. They are 'red' or 'blue' people and at that level your civil war has never ended. Knowing that NO-ONE is obliged to pre-empt their right to decide, in private, at the ballot box is such a freedom that Americans never know. No-one has to lobby me to register to vote. Everyone in my country *must* vote. No-one can harrass me for an imagined political allegiance. No-one knows what my allegiance might be. No-one can rig electoral profiles either or stop me voting. I have to vote. I don't have to tell anyone how I'll vote. I pity Americans for all the limits on their freedoms.
Do you believe this man? I DON’T..
(Pancha Chandra): Truth & ethical conduct certainly matter. Joe Biden has shown throughout his political career how important that he would be an ethical candidate & show the contrast between himself & Trump! After serving under Barack Obama for two terms as Vice-President very capably, Biden is seeking the Presidency for himself in November 2020 to rescue America from calamity! As he leads in every opinion poll, Biden is busy in his search for a running mate. He has made a shrewd decision to choose a lady Vice President! This choice is bound to be a sound one!
😄😄😄😄
So Jeff Bezoz will eventually become the President (or maybe simply the Corporate Leader) of America? Wealth Makes Might... sigh....
You are part of the problem Robert
Robert, I'm sure you are a really nice guy and you really care about people and justice and the welfare of this nation. I agree with so much of what you have covered in your book and the problem with excessive wealth and its corrupting powerful forces. However when it comes to the covid and the WHO and other alphabet agencies in the system you so accurately point out, I think you might want to reassess your position in the matter. Closing everything down served the powerful. They forced small businesses out and their handling of the covid crisis, aside from blaming everything on Trump has done more harm than good. I can see this is an older post so maybe you have changed you position here. Im pretty sure the powerful people who now run this system brought us covid and the solution to it which is not a solution. The 2012 Olympics celebrations was a ritual for the plandemic and the raising of the witched. Are you a victim of compartmentalization? are you cleverly helping to set the stage for the global take over? Or are you staying in your lane and playing it safe while serving bread crumbs of truth . I wish you well and hope your hard work serves more than the Oligarch.
Its those high taxes the democrats levy.
Not true. While the taxes we pay would sustain most; it’s the corporation’s ability to grab the cash granted to them by the Republicans who refuse to make them pay their fair share of taxes and payments to social security , the outrageous subsidies they don’t need or deserve, and the lack of financial accountability when they poison our food, air & water. Many of our lawmakers take the money & grant the wishes of evil
I see that you need to read Macroeconomics chapter 5 by McGraw Hill to re-educate yourself. 🤦🏻♀️
Intelligently blurring the divide between Communism and Kapitalism or Capitalism and Kommunism if you prefer.
La, la, Land
Ir is sad that we were all brainwashed for decades by equating communism with socialism. It was so entrenched that the mere mention of socialism strikes horror in most Americans. Yes, it was a con job of the century. Now we see the end result of an imbalanced capitalistic
system, where all the gains and wealth go to a handful. All the rest are failures, not having the wherewithal to make it big times in a free for all economic system. Most Americans are reeling in despair, absolutely unable to comprehend how they were taken by
the rich and powerful. No matter the one-sidedness of capitalism, our system is great. China would look at America and be envious of how well the US has succeeded in the mass brainwashing of an entire nation. Just look at the pittance of a social security check for survival while the elites bathe in champagne and caviar--and blame oneself. We are indeed a nation of sheep.
