From vouchers and book bans to Supreme Court appointments, author Katherine Stewart traces how a small group of the super-rich has funded a decades-long campaign against public education and democratic institutions. Bill Keep and Nancy Lasher ask the hard questions about money, religion, and power in America and the national and global implications for laws, women, minorities and public education.

If you got laid off tomorrow, which country would you want to be working in? This episode of Power, Profit and Policy compares worker protections in the U.S., China, South Korea, and Germany — and the answer isn't close. We break down Germany's codetermination system (where employees sit on corporate supervisory boards and get real veto power over restructuring), using Volkswagen's massive workforce reduction as a live case study. Then we contrast that with South Korea's two-tier "regular" vs. "non-regular" worker system, China's murky unemployment insurance rules covering under 15% of jobless workers, and the patchwork of at-will employment, union representation, and the toothless WARN Act in the United States.

Christian Nationalism is running our government. It isn’t a fringe movement. It runs our military, has overturned Roe v Wade, and is putting religion back into our public schools. Backed by business, the movement has overtaken our politics and culture.  Tim Whitaker discusses how to stop this avalanche.

Hosts Bill Keep and Nancy Lasher examine the growing influence of Christian Nationalism in American business and politics — from the Supreme Court's Hobby Lobby ruling and the secretive Ziklag network to the Seven Mountains Mandate and its blueprint for theocratic governance. Drawing on Colonial history, Constitutional law, and current events, they argue that implementing this agenda requires the authoritarianism its proponents claim to oppose.
