Acronym TV [56] – CEO Dan Price: Robin Hood or Robber Baron?
Fri, 2/12/2016 - by Dennis Trainor Jr.
This article originally appeared on Acronym TV

Dan Price became a media sensation when he announced that the minimum wage at his company, Gravity Payments, would be elevated to $70,000 per year. Price was branded a socialist by Fox News and a hero by just about everyone else. Journalist Doug Forbes and documentary filmmaker Michael Nigro proposed a documentary series to cover the transition of Gravity Payment employees to their $70,000 wage. During the on-again, off-again negotiation with Price and his handlers, Forbes and Nigro sensed something was not quite right with the Gravity Payment CEO's story.

Forbes conducted a four-month investigation that has unearthed fraud on a massive scale that puts thousands of businesses and tens of thousands of jobs at risk. This week on Acronym TV, Dennis Trainor, Jr. talks with Doug Forbes about the CEO Robber Baron masquerading as Robin Hood.

What remains unknown is whether post-truth Republicans will succeed in 2024 as the Nazis did in 1933.

Based on details that have emerged about Trump’s presidential agenda, the far-right Heritage Foundation plans for the next GOP president to have all the tools necessary to demolish multicultural democracy and establish a white, Christian ethnostate that imposes a gender apartheid not unlike the Taliban’s Afghanistan.

Donald Trump, Hitler

Like Hitler, Trump has a unique command of propaganda, a captivating public presence, and he knows how to drive home narratives beneficial to him and harmful to his enemies.

Trump’s brand of hyper-nationalism combined with the intense consolidation of executive power follows the same playbook as fascistic leaders in other countries like India,Russia, Hungary, Turkey, Egypt, Italy and Argentina, among others.
