Ralph Nader is one of America's most effective social critics. Named by The Atlantic as one of the 100 most influential figures in American history, and by Time and Life magazines as one of the hundred most influential Americans of the twentieth century, his documented criticism of government and industry has had widespread effect on public awareness and bureaucratic power. He is the "U.S.'s toughest customer" says Time magazine. His inspiration and example have galvanized a whole population of consumer advocates, citizen activists, and public interest lawyers who in turn have established their own organizations throughout the country.

Eight New Year's Resolutions for NPR to Consider Now Congress should hold long needed public hearings in both the Senate and the House of Representatives to ascertain whether the original missions accorded public radio and public broadcasting are being pursued both qualitatively and quantitatively, and whether these networks and their affiliates have steadily strayed from those missions, due in part to the absence of mechanisms for public evaluations and congressional oversight

If Biden is a "Union Guy" Go After the Taft-Hartley Monster! "I'm a union guy." Unfortunately as Vice President from 2009 to 2017, his boss Barack Obama wouldn't let him be a "union guy." Even with large Democratic majorities in Congress and control of the White House worker needs went unmet.

Why Didn't Speaker Pelosi Want Witnesses? Democrats, as they did with the first impeachment of Trump, were unwilling to use the full evidence subpoena powers they possess. The haunting question that history will raise will be this: Why didn't Speaker Pelosi call the witnesses?

Why Do Americans Give Away So Much Control to Corporations? The American people own most of the wealth - private and public - and most of the information in the country. The top one percent do not. The American people have most of the power in the country. The top one percent do not. These assertions may surprise you, because the top one percent and the giant corporations work overtime to control what you own.
