Episode: On wealth and the paradox of debt
Description: Roxanne Patel Shepelavy sits down with Richard Vague, a modern Benjamin Franklin (though more gentlemanly) to discuss the connections between the accumulation of wealth in America and the issue of debt. In the 1970s, the cost of a home was 3x a worker's annual income. Today, it is more than 7x. Why the growing disparity? Richard Vague explains.
