It's Friday Night! Party Time!   Time to relax, put your feet up on the couch, lay back, and watch some detailed videos on economic policy!

Considering the blockbuster new research on the beyond belief increase in income and wealth inequality in the United States, I thought some films on income inequality might be in order.

Next is a well done documentary on jobs & living in San Diego. If this film depresses you, realize it is from before the financial crisis. (Oh yeah, that biotech engineer, don't bet on it, they did offshore outsource advanced R&D in pharmaceutical research and bio-technologies)
