How do the struggles facing the American middle class affect our society and how will they affect our future? Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Paul Krugman, two of the leading thinkers on inequality, engage in a discussion of public policy, economics, and the middle class.
Warren and Krugman address a range of topics, such as consumer safeguards, student loan refinancing, bankruptcy protection, banking controls, minimum wage reform and women’s health care.
The conversation was moderated by Janet Gornick, professor of political science and sociology, and director of the Luxembourg Income Study Center, the Graduate Center, City University of New York.
