Where in the hell has this guy been? In his farewell address, President Biden finally articulated the struggles of working-class Americans, highlighting how we’ve been pushed aside while a handful of ultra-wealthy elites consolidate power. Why wait until the end of his presidency to raise the alarm about the dangerous concentration of wealth and influence threatening our democracy?

He warned of an emerging oligarchy where extreme power stomps on our rights and freedoms. For many of us, the sentiment has been crystal clear for some time: We're screwed. Our chances of getting ahead seem to vanish as corporate greed prevails. This isn’t just a theoretical warning; it’s the harsh reality we face daily.
