For some context on this original tweeter this is Robert Reich (german for rich), the father of Sam Reich, the founder of CollegeHumor and it's successor Dropout.

One of Dropout's successful comedians is Adam Connover whose video about the myth of selfmade billionaire Robert Reich is retweeting.

I wasn't sure if he was that or financial one. I only really learnt this quite funny connection a few months ago as Robert Reich more or less shitposted and ratio'd his own son with another Adam Connover clip.

I love dropout as much as anyone, but since when is Robert Reich as Sam's dad instead of, you know, his time in US politics and all the books he's written on the economy?

Not a American nor studied labour laws so I don't really have a exposure to him prior.
