Quote: " Who is this economy really working for? It's doing great for thinner and thinner slices at the top. It's doing great for giant drug companies. It's just not doing great for people trying to get a prescription filled. It's great for people who want to invest in private prisons, just not for the African-Americans whose families are torn apart and lives are destroyed and whose communities are ruined." - Elizabeth Warren. Quote: " We have a serious problem with corporate consolidation. You see the evidence in how dignity is stripped from labor and people who work full time jobs and still can't make a living wage. We see this because consumer prices are being raised by pharmaceutical companies that have holds on drugs" - Sen. Cory Booker. Quote: " Right now we have a system that favors those who can pay for access and outcomes. That's how you explain an economy that is rigged to corporations and the wealthiest." - Former Rep. Beto O'Rourke. Quote: " We are supposed to break up big corporations when they are not serving our democracy." - NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio.
