Episode 56 - The Elite Cycle and Limited Upward Mobility
Ep. 56
•
A recent model predicts civil conflict and even civil war in the United states. A prerequisite for this to happen is that there has to be restrictions on upward socioeconomic mobility. In this episode we explore how that has taken place, and what the final result will be for the ruling elite if the working class is pushed too far.
