Last year, Nike made $23 billion. Its founder is worth $35 billion. But Nike pays just dollars a day to the workers who make its products.
Today I met Dinar, who sews 222 labels an hour onto Nike products. She is paid $202 a month.
This is corporate greed at its worst.

That any of us have to care about the messy breakup of these two massive narcissists — and that they both individually wield such massive power — is an indictment of our political system and further proves the poisonous influence of Big Money on our democracy.

How can we host the Olympics and World Cup when Trump is now banning so many fans from other countries from attending? And would others even feel safe coming?
