The media says the economy is booming, but for most workers, it is a dismal and dangerous place. In this episode, Kevin Rosenquist and John Banks sit down with economist Daniel Altman, international best-selling author of Outrageous Fortunes and the voice behind the High Yield Economics newsletter.

We pull back the curtain on the K-shaped economy to see why corporate profits are hitting record highs while the poorest 20% of Americans have lost 9.3% of their purchasing power in just three years. We also dive into the truth behind the skills gap myth, the use of AI as a wage-suppression tool, and how recent legislation in Washington acted as a Trojan Horse for the ultra-wealthy.
