The Leonard Lopate Show | May 4, 2012

Robert Reich explains why an increasing share of income and wealth is going to the top and argues that income inequality has hobbled jobs and growth and undermines our democracy. Reich is Chancellor's Professor of Public Policy at the Goldman School of Public Policy at the University of California, Berkeley, and former Secretary of Labor under President Bill Clinton, and in Beyond Outrage: What Has Gone Wrong with our Economy and our Democracy, and How to Fix It, he provides ideas for solving the problems income inequality is creating.
