US Economic Inequality
It is Frightening High and Continues to Rise”
A ROD (Restore Our Democracy) Presentation by ED SPIRE
Economic Inequality is Undermining our US Democracy
High levels of economic inequality can undermine democratic principles
Concentrating wealth and political influence in the hands of a few.
This concentration of power can skew policy decisions in favor of the wealthy
And erode the voice and representation of the broader population.
The Bottom line – high levels of economic inequality:
Damages our economy
Folks can’t afford to buy what we can produce
Cannot afford the education to make the productive
Cannot afford health care to keep the productive
Damages our society
People lose faith in their future
Drive people to seek change
Enabled populists to leverage that desire to gain power
Promising change they cannot deliver
We need to show our Senators that there is overwhelming grassroots support for voting rights, join us please as we
“RESTORE OUR DEMOCRACY”
