EquiRate AI by Cannas CapitalNIL - A pathway to economic growth is under threatIn this episode, Eric Foster, Board Chairman of Cannas Capital Holdings and EquiRate AI, argues that NIL, collectives, and college revenue sharing should be understood as generational wealth pathways—not as threats to college sports.For decades, universities, coaches, conferences, networks, merchandise companies, and athletic departments generated enormous value from student-athletes while limiting the ability of those athletes to share fairly in the wealth they created. NIL and revenue sharing began to change that. Now, powerful voices are pushing restrictions that would reduce athlete compensation and restore more control to institutions and old-line power brokers.Er...

The New Way Forward by The Future - Today & TomorrowHow to Respond to the Supreme Court's Voting Rights Act Decision in Louisiana v. CallaisThe Supreme Court's decision in Louisiana v. Callais is a major setback for Voting Rights Act protections and minority representation. In this episode, Eric Foster argues that the response cannot stop at outrage. Pro-democracy organizations need a practical action plan: worst-case redistricting maps, turnout expansion, eligible voter analysis, strategic population planning, coalition coordination, candidate recruitment, and a long-term strategy through 2030 reapportionment.

The New Way Forward by The Future - Today & TomorrowTax Cuts Don’t Work: It’s Time to Stop Selling the FantasyIn this episode of The New Way Forward by The Future – Today & Tomorrow, Eric challenges one of the most durable myths in American politics: that tax cuts automatically help ordinary people.The conversation makes a straightforward case. Public services require money, and when government revenue is cut without a serious replacement strategy, the cost does not disappear. It shifts. Families pay more privately for education, infrastructure gaps, weaker systems, and other burdens that public investment once helped absorb. That means many tax cuts function less like relief and more like a political illusion.This episode is...
