Beskrivelse

Episode 4 takes a deep dive into who is really behind the wheel of our day to day lives and *spoiler* it's neither the left nor right. Your favorite politician (yes even the president) has strings attached and they're consistently being pulled from various directions at all times. Dan breaks down the dangers of big money, lobbying, and special interest groups but more specifically the illusion that we as a society live in a democracy. Sure, this statement may carry some weight but be rest assured that our republic is currently operating within the confines of the parameters they have already laid out for us. At the level they are playing at - don't be fooled for a second that anything in this country matters except for the almighty dollar. Stream episode 4 now so that you can begin to come to terms with the most powerful truth of all time - money talks, bullshit walks. Read less
