How politics is ruined by money - explained by a Finance PhD
Episode description
In this episode of The Dr Boyce Breakdown, I explain how the American political system is horribly corrupted by money. Billionaires give money to candidates, who then give that money to corporate media to help them persuade voters to put them into office.
This creates a horrible set of incentives for both the politician and corporate media. The media will serve the politicians who give them money, and the politicians then serve the billionaires. The American people are only served to the extent that they must be managed and manipulated to keep the politicians in power who serve their corporate interests.
This also explains why there is no serious pursuit of the black agenda. #AfricanAmericans are important as a voting base, but not as a funding base. Therefore, they are typically managed by media, who exposes them only to specific information designed to support the politicians who are paying their bills.
This podcast shows the downside of Financial Addiction and how it ruins our political system.
Sincerely,
Dr Boyce Watkins
