Reality Doesn't Bite; The New Wealth Gap

from The 7th Avenue Project · host Robert Pollie

Political scientist Brendan Nyhan studies the impact of facts on political views, and finds that often, reality doesn't matter.

He says that despite fears that they'd lose their fortunes during the financial crisis, many of the highly affluent are doing better than ever, and the gap between rich and poor has only grown.
