Scott Winship: Measuring Poverty

When we talk about poverty in the United States, what do we mean? And how do we measure it? My AEI colleague Scott Winship returns to Political Economy to give us a primer on how the “war on poverty” is going.

Scott is a senior fellow and Director of Poverty Studies here at AEI. He’s also author of the new report, “Bringing Home the Bacon: Have Trends in Men’s Pay Weakened the Traditional Family?” We’ll be diving into that question later in the show.
