On the evening following Election Day, join K. Sabeel Rahman for a nonpartisan discussion how to transform the "New Gilded Age" into a more inclusive economy. Between 2008 and 2009, the U.S. labor market lost 8.4 million jobs – 6.1% of all payroll employment – and the average household brought in roughly $5,000 less in 2009 than it did in the year 2000.
