Have Democrats Benefited Wall Street More than the Middle Class?

The Leonard Lopate Show | Apr 29, 2016

This is a rebroadcast from an interview that originally aired on March 15, 2016. 

Despite the fact that Democrats have served in the White House for 16 of the last 24 years, economic inequality is at an all-time high, and the middle class continues to decline. Former Wall Street Journal columnist and author Thomas Frank discusses his latest book Listen, Liberal: Or, Whatever Happened to the Party of the People? which takes a critical look at why the Democratic Party hasn’t done more to advance the values and causes they purportedly stand for, including expanding economic opportunity and fighting for social justice.
