Watch Inequality for All For Free

You won't be disappointed!

Simply A Masterpiece

Pretty Good

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

Do you think it would catch their attention if we were to organize a national strike in which every individual making only minimum wage were to walk off their jobs on the same day across the nation? The fast food industries capture some headlines when they walked out and asked for $15.00 an hour. We need to hit them where it hurts if we are to get their attention, and since places like the Walmart's McDonals, and such can not function if there was a walk out since that is just about all they employ they would have to shut their door, and that would cost them.I watched your movie and found it to be very interesting. Unions need to be organized in these places, possibly of have representatives come to the places where these walk outs would take place. They have used the threat of firing people seeking to start or join a union, but if you make it into a massive event, they can't fire everyone. That would mean closing their doors indefinitely. There's power in numbers. I forgot to mention the the person they hired to replace me was half my age.We also need to also revisit the At Will employment act the allows employers to circumvent the anti discrimination laws by giving them the power to fire someone for any or no reason at all. A lot of companies are using a severance pay in which they require the employee to sign off any rights to come back at them for any reason, less they relinquish the right or pay back any severance pay paid them. Most decriminalization cases are all but impossible to prove when the reason for letting them go is listed as at will. And the individual is told this up front and that the employer will be notified of your claim, even before they determine if you have a claim.I'm over 40, and worked for the same company for more than 12 years. I had noticed that several people that like me were over 40 and had been with the company for some time being laid off periodically. And then they came to me and told me that I was being let go because they didn't have enough work for me. I was the oldest and most senior person in my department. My papers listed me as being released at will. They hired someone to replace me less than a month after letting me go claiming that they did not have enough work to accommodate that position. When I wrote them as my right, to ask for the reason for my termination, their reply was simply, I was at will and they were not saying anything beyond that. I've been out of work now for almost 2 years.

Great documentaries should show us a truth about our lives. Inequality does that. It basically says a fact: 400 individuals own half of all the available income in America, that America has never in its history, according to all available data, has never, been wealthier, and yet, taken as a whole Americans have never been poorer. So if all you want is a decent job, a house, a car, and a holiday, a chance to save for your children. Forget it. Inequality simply says that what was a given until the end of the 1970s is gone. You cannot win, you cannot get that simple life - full stop. One of its better facts: in 1979 a meat packer was $45K, now nearly 40 years later, that job, despite house prices going up 10 times, is now $24K a year (and no benefits). The removal of the unions is the single biggest factor - at one time 33% of all Americans were in unions, now almost no-one has that protection and clout to negotiate left. Instead wages are squeezed to the pit where two jobs are worth less than one was. Anyway you watch it and you decide.

watched INEQUALITY FOR ALL ...last year I saw an interview on RT featuring Robert Reich..& honestly I had no idea who he is/was..BUT what made me hooked to this guy was his revolutionary views about the economy & the people who controls it...THIS documentary is about the same thing It tells us about the economy..n how filthy rich "capitalists" controls it by sucking the money out of the common worker/people & how the government helps em to rob the very people who elected it....BUT don't think of it as a communist propaganda..the makers only worry about the America & the American people..they say it again n again(Its the only lag that stops people around the world to relate from the situation..cause methods can be diff but this is what is happening to all of em) AND it tells us all this stuff in the simplest form possible..you never get bored for a second..it portrays every aspect of the situation..so you can't call it biased at all..except that he went a little generous on the Bill Clinton & his own office years(what I think)..even than the film reveals a lot of things..things you must know As an outsider I enjoyed this knowledge/stuff & think its a _MUST WATCH_ for locals(US citizens)& _WORTH A WATCH_ for everyone else

I sat down and watched this doc hoping to hear something more than typical liberal talking points. However that hope was soon dashed. If you want a feel good liberal spin of the poor and inequality than this movie is for you. If you want an honest look about the truth of inequality in this country you will leave this doc empty handed. Robert Reich tries to tie in a slew of liberal talking points together all to blame inequality on republicans with an attempted smokescreen of blaming both parties. Toward the end he stems into the occupy and tea party stances of taking the money out of politics but fails to really point blame at the democrats themselves for being there to actually accept it instead of turning it down. Instead he just blames the rich. This is a straight forward bias approach to economics as one can see. The claim that the bill clinton era economy was a strong US economy is laughable as clinton's policies (the community reinvestment act expansion) were the very roots of the cause of the economic collapse. In general the movie is a classic piece of capitalism. Don't worry about solving problems and looking at the truth, just produce what sells. The truth is there is enough blame to go around. There are some ominous points made in the doc. One involving globalism. It is not hard to understand why globalism has brought down wages. More people willing to do a job, means you can find someone to do it for less. Yet he fails to see how women entering the work force had the same effect of keeping wages down by producing more human labor. Instead linking it to a need for women to go to work to increase income. One thing is certain, wages are stagnant and ceo and the rich are getting richer. But his solution is geared more toward a political class maintaining power than it is about actually solving these issues. Left off this video is important conversations about the FED, effects of taxation on the middle and how it prevents the middle class form raising up and growing. Also left off is any real conversation about why college tuition has skyrocketed inline with the amount of money the government is willing to loan students. Also left out is how corruption in higher education and government policies for things like licenses and certification are closing out large parts of the population to employment in every protectionism schemes. There is room for a real conversation on this subject, however this doc isn't it.
