PRESENTED BY: Meaningful Movies of IssaquahRobert Reich is an economist, author, and educator who was U.S. Secretary of Labor under Bill Clinton and who teaches a course on wealth and poverty at the University of California Berkeley. Since the mid-1980s, Reich has been outspoken on the issue of the growing divide between America’s rich and poor; and how this widening gulfthat this gulf is slowly but surely wiping out the middle class, leading to an economic catastrophe if left unchecked. Inequality For All provides disturbing evidence of the roles stagnating wages, growing personal debt, an economy based on consumer spending, and the decline of manufacturing are playing in the weakening of the American economy.
