PBS’ Making Sen$e: ‘Land of the Free, Home of the Poor’
Watch the full episode . See more PBS NewsHour. Making Sen$e correspondent Paul Solman reports on the extreme inequality in the U.S. It’s now on par with African dictatorships. In a telling moment after interviewing a recent immigrant from Haiti, where she says the American Dream isn’t something she feels she’ll ever have, Solman says, “The U.S. looks unequal to a Haitian?” He then looks into a recent study about wealth in the U.S. “The first constant finding,” Solman says. “Most Americans don’t realize how unequal our country really is.” Yay for non-profit media.
