Apex Ascend Episode 11 - The Economy--It’s Not Complicated
They called it bold. They called it beautiful.
But history—and the numbers—tell a different story.
In this episode of Apex Ascend, I break down how decades of so-called “trickle-down” tax cuts have stacked the deck for the wealthy, gutted public investment, and left working families fighting over crumbs. From Reagan’s false promises to Bush’s ballooning deficit and Trump’s corporate payday, we trace how the richest Americans rigged the tax code—and how Trump’s new “Big Beautiful Bill” could become the biggest wealth grab in U.S. history.
You’ll learn:
- Why corporations are now the biggest owners of stock (yes, their own)
- How stock buybacks became legalized market manipulation
- And how we can flip the script from top-down giveaways to bottom-up investment
This isn’t just about policy—it’s about power.
And if you’re tired of being lied to while billionaires cash out, this one’s for you.
🎧 Listen now and learn how to roar louder, rise higher, and reclaim your future.
