Robert Reich
Corporations are not people, despite what the Supreme Court says, and they don't need or deserve handouts.
Robert Reich
The key to understanding the rise in inequality isn't technology or globalization. It's the power of the moneyed interests to shape the underlying rules of the market.
Robert Reich
America's real business leaders understand unless or until the middle class regains its footing and its faith, capitalism remains vulnerable.

Robert Reich

Robert Reich
Yale Law School was the kind of place you went if you felt you needed to go to law school, maybe, for your resume, but you really didn't want to practice law. You wanted to do public policy, or maybe go into politics.
Robert Reich
Bill Clinton was a very, very good speaker. But like many people who are great speakers and great thinkers and have a lot of energy and ambition, he talked too much.
Robert Reich
On the Republican playing field, Republicans always win.
Robert Reich
You can't inspire people if you are going to be uninspiring.
Robert Reich
In journalism, there are only two stories - Oh, the wonder of it, and Oh, the shame of it.
Robert Reich
We can't know in advance what history is going to say, but I would be utterly amazed and surprised if this entire adventure, this entire Iraqi invasion from the beginning of its inception, were not judged to be an utter failure and a terrible, terrible thing for the world.
Robert Reich
Social change occurs when the gap between the ideals that people hold and the reality that they see every day gets too large.
Robert Reich
Cynicism is the largest obstacle to social change. Cynicism is dangerous because people throw up their hands and say, Well it's not possible. Why should I even try?
Robert Reich
We already have an annual wealth tax on homes, the major asset of the middle class. It's called the property tax. Why not a small annual tax on the value of stocks and bonds, the major assets of the wealthy?
Robert Reich
There will always be a business cycle, and white-collar workers will get hit in the next recession like they always do in recessions.
