As government weighs taxation and the cost of social programs, it is helpful to understand our history. Our struggle sharing the wealth has roots in the period of reconstruction, Jim Crow laws, and government-imposed discrimination in housing and employment. Money Grab describes U.S. income and wealth disparity and research on the persistence of poverty and generational wealth.
