The Gospel Of Wealth - A Story Of Capitalism : Unfettered Wealth (1981-Today)

Description

In 1982, Reagan pursued an ultra-capitalist conservative policy, lowering taxes, particularly for the rich, while poverty increased and money was everywhere. New York was in the hands of property developers such as Fred Trump and his son Donald. Property prices soared and Manhattan was transformed into a haven for millionaires. There was a concentration of capital in every field, including healthcare (Pfizer), which led to a drastic increase in the cost of drugs and a fourfold increase in the cost of healthcare in the United States. In 1995, a tech boss became the richest American : Bill Gates was now worth 9.35 billion dollars. Silicon Valley became the new cradle of tech with the creation of Amazon in 1995, Google in 1998 and Facebook in 2004. The 2000s saw a new battle described as dangerous for these economic and political superpowers: the race for data, a new goldmine for the tech giants.
