The Broken American Dream: The Truth About Inequality No One Wants to Say Out Loud | Tom Bilyeu Deep Dive
Tom Bilyeu takes us on a no-holds-barred deep dive into the economic systems shaping our world—and the brutal realities behind rising inequality and declining prosperity. Why do some countries thrive while others spiral into poverty? Is our current system rigged beyond repair, or do we still have the power to course-correct?
Drawing on hard-hitting statistics, historical case studies, and insights from thinkers like Thomas Sowell and Milton Friedman, Tom unpacks the myths surrounding meritocracy, the dangers of well-intentioned welfare policies, and the crucial roles that culture, education, and family structure play in the fate of nations. He doesn’t shy away from uncomfortable truths about government policies, societal values, and the perils of forced equality.
Most importantly, Tom lays out a clear-eyed, six-part blueprint for rekindling prosperity—from reforming welfare and championing education reform to rebuilding the middle class and dismantling regulatory barriers for entrepreneurs.
