Wes Bishop joins Pete to discuss the second Gilded Age. The top 1% owns more wealth and has captured the majority of gains from economic growth than at any time since 1920s in the United States, even as worker productivity has increased across the board. In other words the 99% are producing more but receiving an increasingly smaller share.
