No, this is not a sarcastic Onion headline. Democracy Now! reported yesterday that the top 74 earners in America make more than the lowest-paid 19 million workers. These stark numbers are just a foreboding indication of what is to come– the income gap in this country continues to grow, and the numbers will only get worse as the economy’s troubles continue to take a heavy toll on the working class.
Love seeing important scholarship regarding progressive issues in peer @Harvard_Law journals’ blogs!
