Liberal economist Robert Reich examines a disturbing trend in an op-ed published by "The Guardian" on May 23: millionaires and billionaires funding Republican candidates who are overtly anti-democracy.
"Decades ago," Reich writes, "America's monied interests bankrolled a Republican establishment that believed in fiscal conservatism, anti-communism and constitutional democracy. Today's billionaire class is pushing a radically anti-democratic agenda for America — backing Trump's lie that the 2020 election was stolen, calling for restrictions on voting and even questioning the value of democracy."
