Leslie is joined by Morris Pearl, Chairman of the Board of The Patriotic Millionaires, a group of more than 200 Americans with annual incomes over $1 million and/or assets of more than $5 million who believe that the country’s current level of economic inequality is both dangerous and immoral. They recognize that while there are many causes of inequality, the current level of economic disparity is largely the result of a multi-decade effort by wealthy elites to enact legislation designed to enhance their personal wealth and their political power.

Pearl discusses his protest speech outside the RNC against rich political donors. He and Leslie also discuss potential solutions to America's heavily unbalanced campaign finance system, including the idea of a small-donor matching system.

The website for the Patriotic Millionaires is www.PatrioticMillionaires.org and their Twitter handle is @PatrioticMills.
