Bob welcomes Jeff Madrick, economist, journalist, and author of the new book Invisible Americans: The Tragic Cost of Child Poverty, to discuss why among large wealthy nations, the United States has the highest child poverty rate in the world. This issue is made even more consequential currently, with the high unemployment rate due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
