According to Professor Scott Galloway of NYU's Stern School of Business, the growing disparity between the haves and the have-nots is leading to a "series of small revolutions" where billionaires and CEO's may have pushed the envelope too far and put their own lives at risk.
After lashing out at Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg earlier for dismantling Facebook's fact-checking and moderation safety division to make Donald Trump happy –– and put more money in his own pocket at the same time –– Galloway had a warning.
"These individuals have weaponized the government and we risk revolution, whether it’s CEOs being murdered in the street, whether it’s a MeToo movement that had righteous components of it, or Black Lives Matter," he told the hosts of MSNBC's "Morning Joe."

"Income inequality is out of control. Our tax policy has gone full oligarch," he accused.
