Foreign Affairs Focus On: Economic Inequality & Its Roots with Jacob S. Hacker

Editor Gideon Rose and "Winner-Take-All Politics" author Jacob Hacker explore why income inequality in the United States has grown so signicantly.

Dr. Hacker is the director of the Institution for Social and Policy Studies and Stanley B. Resor Professor of Political Science at Yale University.

  • This guy is full of crap. He mentions that the Republicans moved Way to the right !! Let's ignore that the Dems FELL OFF OF the left side of their flat earth. Just more leftist whining while promoting socialist failure.

  • Hrmph. Libertarians might disagree with EVERYTHING your 'little group' stands for.
