The movie Inequality For All was recently added to Netflix. I had wanted to see it when it first came out in theaters, but it only played for a very limited time. So it was good to finally see it after hearing much about it.
The film is hosted by Robert Reich, former US Secretary of Labor. He explains his theories on why the wealth distribution has changed so substantially over the past fifty years in this country. It focuses on the 99% vs the 1%, and his theories on how our country got there. It is told from the perspective of him giving a lecture at UC Berkeley to a large group of students, while cutting away to live footage and graphics to illustrate his points.
I found it very enlightening, although I was left wondering what to do about the situation after I finished watching. It definitely is worth taking the time to view if you have access to the movie.
