Nick Hanauer: Beware, fellow plutocrats, the pitchforks are coming
TED * Published on Aug 12, 2014

Hear his argument about why a dramatic increase in minimum wage could grow the middle class, deliver economic prosperity ... and prevent a revolution.
- Go long on pitchforks and guillotines because I don't see them taking his advice.....
