The age of Americans is inversely correlated to how they feel about America. People under the age of 40 are 24% less wealthy than they were 40 years ago. But social media and TikTok that has a vested interest in disadvantaging America, wouldn't they be stupid not to slowly but surely raise a generation of civic nonprofit and military and government leaders that just feel a little bit shittier about America every day? We can't have this. There's no way we can have this.
Kara and Scott discuss another round of Amazon layoffs, former President Trump’s call for protests, and of course, raccoon dogs. Plus, the banking drama continues as banks in the U.S. and Switzerland come together to rescue the weakest among them. Also, TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew will testify before Congress this week. Friend of Pivot Dr. Gloria Mark explains how technology has impacted our attention spans.
