Week 8 — Midterm Review & The Three-Legged Milking Stool

This week is our midterm checkpoint. We review Chapters 11, 12, and 13—covering the ‘Slow Bleed’ of the American worker, how corporate capture broke the American family, and the ‘Three-Legged People Milking Stool’ that keeps the majority subservient.

Discussion prompts:

• We’re at the midpoint of the course—what has changed in your understanding so far?
• How has corporate capture affected your own family or community?
• Which of the ‘three legs’ of the milking stool affects you most directly?

Take a moment to reflect on the first half of the course and share your thoughts.
