Fascinating interview with Jeff Clements, author of Corporations Are Not People and the co-founder of Free Speech for People. Looking back at the 1970’s, the conversation examines the history of the Corporatist movement by looking at the agenda of Lewis Powell before he was appointed to the Supreme Court by then President Richard Nixon.

Listen in and hear how the stage was set and what’s next.
