Income Inequality, the National Debt and our Economic Crisis.
What is the cause of our economic crisis with its high unemployment rate and stagnant wages while at the same time corporations are earning record profits and the stock market soars?
Politicians have shaped the national discourse to blame moochers, government spending, government regulations, and "entitlements" for our economic crisis. Join a discussion led by noted lecturer, Ed Cole, as we explore the root cause of the economic issues of our time, income/wealth inequality and the national debt furor. The discussion will draw from the Joseph Stiglitz book, “The Price of Inequality." Learn how Stiglitz, a Noble Prize winning economist, views the issues. Join us even if you have not read the book as key points will be explained and discussed.
The South Suburban MoveOn Council will host this teach-in concerning income inequality and the national debt on Tuesday, March 12, 7-8:30 pm at the Frankfort Public Library, 21119 S Pfeiffer Rd., Frankfort, IL 60423
