The discussion will be moderated by PBS NewsHour correspondent Hari Sreenivasan and cover the topic of income inequality in America. You can submit questions before the chat in the comment section below, via Facebook or on Twitter using the hashtag #gapchat. In the meantime, check out our recent coverage of the issue. Watch “In Ohio, How 2 Counties’ Economic Paths Diverged Over 30 Years,” the broadcast piece by Paul and Dante, and read “The 12 States Of America,” the article Dante wrote for The Atlantic. Editor’s Update | 4:41pm Thanks to everyone who participated in the live chat. There were many, many more good questions and comments than we had time to address in one hour. We’ll be addressing some of those soon here on Making Sen$e. But we wanted to quickly address one more. Jacob Zeder asked, Does good education necessarily have to be college? Is college sometimes over emphasized? How many college graduates are unemployed now especially the liberal arts? We explored this issue in two recent pieces: Dog-Walkers to Dominatrices: Many College Grads Face ‘Malemployment’ and in So You Have a Liberal Arts Degree and Expect a Job?. We're not going anywhere. Stand up for truly independent, trusted news that you can count on!
