In this episode, we examine the idea that Donald Trump acted like the first CEO of “Corporate America,” running the country as a business and viewing citizens as shareholders. We discuss the privatization of prisons, the commodification of war, and how tech entrepreneurs are building new governance systems beyond traditional government control. Is this kind of corporate-driven model more efficient, or does it risk sidelining those who don’t turn a profit? Join us for a look at how shifting economic and technological realities are shaking up our notions of the nation-state, and what it means for our collective future.
