“This business model works despite the type of consumer that they’re selling to. There is money to be made in poverty.”- Brian Grow, BUSINESSWEEK
This week on BILL MOYERS JOURNAL (KCET-TV)
As more companies view low-income Americans as opportunities for profit, the “poverty business” is booming. BILL MOYERS JOURNAL and EXPOSÉ: AMERICA'S INVESTIGATIVE REPORTS follow a team of BUSINESSWEEK reporters as they track new corporate practices that some say exploit the working poor.
With the economy going bust, Bill Moyers gets perspective from economist and co-director of the Center for Economic and Policy Research Dean Baker and NEW YORK TIMES op-ed columnist Bob Herbert.
