And why not be angry? Consider the following:

• While inflation spirals, “major U.S. corporations are reporting record profits, as companies pass rising supply-chain costs onto consumers.”—PBS NewsHour
• U.S. corporations dodge $90 billion a year in income taxes by shifting profits to subsidiaries in tax havens—$2.1 trillion in profits offshore, untaxed in the U.S.—Americans for Tax Fairness
• While households worldwide faced rising energy and goods prices, “Exxon Mobil saw record annual profits in 2022, bringing in $55.7 billion—more than doubling the energy giant’s $23 billion in profits in 2021.”—USA Today
• About one in three Americans are very or extremely concerned about their current financial situation. One in four said they’ve reduced savings or 401(k) contributions; 18% have delayed medical care; 22% have sold off their possessions to bring in more cash.—savings.com

Senator Sanders wants you to feel the anger—then do something about it. Should we just accept that three billionaires control more wealth than the bottom half of our society? How can we stop the super-rich from buying elections and politicians? How do we create a fair and just society?

Masks are required for everyone over the age of 2 years old and must be worn at all times in the venue, and throughout the duration of the event.
