Manage episode 293851204 series 2906446
Economist Bruce Meyer of the University of Chicago talks about poverty with EconTalk host Russ Roberts. In recent years, a number of scholars have claimed that millions of Americans live in extreme poverty, akin to the standard of living in the poorest countries around the world.

The conversation also addresses broader challenges around measuring mobility and the American Dream.
