The Price of Inequality | Joseph Stiglitz | Talks at Google

Joseph Stiglitz, Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences recipient (2001) , visited Google on June 12, 2012 to talk about his new book THE PRICE OF INEQUALITY: How Today's Divided Society Endangers Our Future.
Check out his Vanity Fair article (goo.gl/u40jE), which he starts out with:
"The 1 Percent's Problem
"Why won't America's 1 percent-such as the six Walmart heirs, whose wealth equals that of the entire bottom 30 percent-be a bit more . . . selfish? As the widening financial divide cripples the U.S. economy, even those at the top will pay a steep price."
