Today’s Economic Democracy Weekly looks directly at economic inequality, from multiple angles. Our Economy Remix article analyzes the findings of French economist Thomas Piketty’s book Capital and Ideology. We follow with a short look at how the wealthy evade taxation today. In our community development leaders of color series, Calvin Gladney of Smart Growth America deconstructs land use as a tool that can entrench inequality—and, if people organize, reverse it. Lasty, Marian Conway looks at student debt, economic inequality, and the Biden administration’s moves to relieve some student debt holders, even as the structure of debt-financed higher education remains in place.
