Why Democracy Needs the Rich

John McGinnis
Ardith Spence
John McGinnis

Professor John McGinnis discusses his new book, "Why Democracy Needs the Rich." He argues that the popular vilification of the rich is misplaced, as the rich in fact enhance American society and democracy in many ways. He believes that the rich offer an important counterpoint to elements in American society that routinely skew left such as the media, academia and the entertainment industry.
