Description

Today, we’re taking a closer look at how people are feeling in this economy. Salaries for Americans are still increasing, but many think their pay isn’t keeping up with inflation. The data doesn’t bear this out. So what’s behind the disconnect? We’re also joined Alissa Quart, executive director of the Economic Hardship Reporting Project, who discusses Americans’ perceptions of the economy, the politics of resentment and the importance of building a working-class media.
