Robert B. Reich: The rise of AI populism. It’s the future of America at stake (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The unlikely duo of Bernie Sanders and Steve Bannon keynoted a Washington conference to demand a stop to AI, its data centers, and the risks AI poses to jobs and even to the human species. Notably, both lambasted the corporate oligarchs behind AI. The most potent force in American politics is anti-establishment fury at a system seen as rigged against average working people. AI has become Exhibit A. Until recently both parties largely avoided criticizing the wealthy corporate elites that funded t
Robert B. Reich: Trump declares war on Canada (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Not exactly a war, but a trade war — which will impose huge costs on both American consumers and on Canada. As I said, Trump is now completely and utterly out of his mind. The very idea of a trade war with Canada — our neighbor, our ally, our closest friend, a nation that’s peaceful and whose people have a reputation for kindness — is absurd. But Trump is doing it anyway. He’s imposing a 50% tariff on goods coming from Canada — which, remember, is an import tax paid by you and me. The tariffs ac

Robert B. Reich: Criminals in control and what we must do (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Republican-led Senate recently confirmed acting Attorney General Todd Blanche to be the next U.S. attorney general. Like Richard Nixon’s attorney general, John Mitchell, Blanche has carried out the orders of a president of the United States. As was Mitchell’s fate, Blanche should be behind bars. Mitchell served 19 months of a two-and-a-half-year sentence for conspiracy and obstruction of justice in the Watergate scandal. Instead, Senate Republicans have given Blanche a promotion. On Thursday
Robert B. Reich: ‘Charitable giving’ isn’t what you think (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I want to start today with a warning about “charitable giving” and end with a primer on wealth inequality. The two are closely related, as I’ll explain. We’re on the cusp of the biggest gusher of “charitable giving” in history. Beware. We tend to think of “charitable giving” as unambiguously good because we equate “charities” with organizations that help the poor and equate “giving” with generosity. But both assumptions are wrong. In fact, the “giving” is actually a giant tax loophole that provi
