Solving Poverty In America

In this June 13, 2012, photo, a job seeker talks to a recruiter at a job fair expo in Anaheim, Calif.

Peter Cove is the founder of America Works, which is the first for-profit, welfare-to-work company. He joins us to discuss his new book, Poor No More: Rethinking Dependency and the War on Poverty. Cove proposes revamping poverty programs to emphasize jobs. The book was inspired by Cove's experiences with America Works.
