A Timely Tale of Taxes and Toys ‘R’ Us

The orthodoxy that dominates today’s Republican Party — and the ranks of “business-friendly” Democrats — rests on a simple approach to economic policy.

Congressional Budget Office Report Reveals The Rich Are Once Again Outpacing Everyone Else

Back in the 1980s, the decade that saw researchers start detailing America’s increasing concentration of income and wealth, flacks for the emerging Reagan economic order disdainfully dismissed the significance of the alarming new data. The United States isn’t getting more unequal, the Reaganites pronounced, and the middle class

The Richest Americans Now Live 10-15 Years Longer Than The Poorest

Rich people live longer than poor people. No big news there — we’ve known that health tracks wealth for quite some time now.

Record Deaths Amid Duerte’s US-funded Crackdown on Philippines’ Poor

Deborah Goldring stands inside her Baltimore home. From growing up black in the segregated 1960s, Goldring pulled herself out of poverty and earned a middle-class life - until the Great Recession. First, her husband fell ill, and they drained savings to pay for nursing homes before he died. Then Goldring lost her executive assistant job of 17 years. Then came a letter from the bank, intending to foreclose on her home of almost three decades. For Goldring and many others in the black community, where unemployment is still rising, job loss has knocked them out of the middle class and back into poverty. Some even see a historic reversal of hard-won economic gains that took black people decades to achieve. (AP Photo/Steve Ruark)
