Capitalism is expanding like a tumor in the body of American society,
spreading further into vital areas of human need like health and
education.
Milton Friedman said in 1980: "The free market system distributes the
fruits of economic progress among all people." The father of the modern
neoliberal movement couldn't have been more wrong . Inequality has been growing for 35 years, worsening since the 2008 recession, as a few well-positioned Americans have made millions while
the rest of us have gained almost nothing. Now, our college students
and medicine-dependent seniors have become the source of new riches for
the profitseeking free-marketers.
