Show Credit: WERA-FM, 96.7|Show Title: C.R.E.A.M. If there is anything I have learned these past few years regarding economic policies that have shaped the American worker, inequality and the forces behind it are what make the U.S. economy function the way it does. A small percentage of the population gets rich, while the rest fight for crumbs at the bottom. An Atlantic piece highlighted MIT economist Peter Temin's new book, The Vanishing Middle Class: Prejudice and Power in a Dual Economy. I am please to have Peter on the show to outline the factors that shape American inequality.
