Description
When did economic security become something workers are expected to build entirely on their own?
This segment looks at the growing affordability crisis, stubborn inflation, and the increasingly popular idea that workers need to become their own economic safety nets.
Then we look at a very different response: unionization and collective action. Starbucks Workers United has launched a nationwide boycott in an effort to pressure the company to reach an agreement.
