Longtime educator and activist Bill Ayers discusses a settlement reached in a class-action lawsuit with elite American universities over tuition price-fixing, how having market-driven higher education creates these issues, and how a truly public university system would save US higher education.
Writer and journalist Daniel Lazare discusses why New York businesses are afraid the Trump Organization could be dissolved over asset-inflation fraud, the political consequences of this and other court cases against former President Donald Trump, whether a court ruling Elon Musk’s Tesla pay package is excessive could have positive reverberations, how SpaceX and Trader Joes are attempting to destroy the National Labor Relations Board, whether we need to worry about regional bank collapses again, and what to make of the lack of charges against Russell Brand.
