The converse is also true.

You can substitute empathy or humanity for love or justice and still be true in either arrangement.

Goldy: Well, love and affection. It's still costing me money. But I want to say... there is a huge divide in the economy: There are the people who inherit money from their parents, and there are the people who spend money on their parents.

I don't think those of us on the "inherit" side understand what it's like to live on the other side... caught in the "sandwich generation," spending money on children and parents at the same time. When you're on our side, Nick, you can take risks that the other side can't.

Nick Hanauer: It's true. Natalie, why do you do this work?

Natalie Foster: I grew up the daughter of an Evangelical minister in Kansas and spent a lot of time thinking about love. In college, it was actually Cornel West who said something that really stuck with me: "Justice is what love looks like in public." That has been a guiding principle for me.
