Why do so many Americans feel financially squeezed despite a "strong" economy? In this episode of Labor Force Podcast, we examine rising inflation, falling real wages, the shrinking American Dream, growing wealth inequality, AI and the future of work, labor organizing, and the economic pressures facing working-class families.
We also discuss the surge in utility costs, teen unemployment, the rise of "BrokeTok," labor activism in Minnesota, lessons from the Labor Notes Conference, and new research showing why midlife Americans are experiencing higher levels of stress, loneliness, and financial insecurity.
