About this Event

Join The Extreme Wealth Center, Tax the Greedy Billionaires, and The American Prospect for a timely conversation about the unprecedented concentration of wealth in America and the dangerous ideologies driving ultra-wealthy elites to override democratic institutions. 


This author panel brings together leading voices examining how billionaires are not just accumulating wealth, but wielding it to reshape society according to their own vision—from Silicon Valley's techno-utopian crusades to private equity's systematic extraction of value from American communities. As extreme wealth continues to distort housing markets, healthcare systems, and democratic processes, understanding the ideological frameworks that justify this concentration of power has never been more urgent.
