2. Thank you!
Thank you - I am a documentary filmmaker, and I like Juhasz's work so I made it into more of a narration rather than a talking head.

However, I don't think breaking up the trusts is really the answer. If we did organize for "revolution", workers would own the capital and the production, and these profits could be used for democratic purposes. I don't think we should settle for regulation.
