Description
There’s another billionaire who is getting active in American politics. But this is different. Daniel Lubetzky, the son of a holocaust survivor and founder of the company behind KIND Bars, started the Builders Movement with a goal to help voters learn how to think in politics, not what to think. And the key to it all is technology that counteracts algorithms and extremism in American politics. They’ve already found success in other states and it’s coming to Texas next. In this episode of Y’all-itics, Lubetzky shares a deeply personal story to explain why he's trying to get voters to adopt a “builder’s mindset.”
