Description
In this segment, we explore why millions of Americans still feel financially squeezed even as inflation slows. We break down new polling on the economy, the affordability crisis driving more adults to rely on their parents, Jamie Dimon's remarks on wealth inequality, and the growing mental health toll of economic insecurity.
