Income and wealth inequality are not new. In fact, economists and historians who have charted economic inequality throughout history haven't found a single society without it. Which raises a bleak question: is inequality ... inevitable? Explore how economic inequality can be measured and how it is impacted by different governmental policy choices. \[Directed by Natália Azevedo Andrade, AIM Creative Studios, narrated by George Zaidan, music by André Aires\].
