This week, Zephyr Teachout, Fordham law professor and author of Break 'Em Up, joins the show to discuss how weakened antitrust regulations have led to environmental and employee harm, how fossil fuel subsidies have prevented stronger competition from renewables, and why breaking up monopolies is good for the planet.
Co-hosts Ty Benefiel and Brock Benefiel also discuss the 60 Minutes segment on climate change and the differences between the Green New Deal and Joe Biden's Clean Energy Plan.
