Park Avenue: Money, Power and the American Dream⎜WHY POVERTY?⎜(Documentary)
How much inequality is too much? 740 Park Ave, New York City, is home to some of the wealthiest Americans. Across the Harlem River, 10 minutes to the north, is the other Park Avenue in South Bronx, where more than half the population live on food stamps and children are 20 times more likely to be killed. In the last 30 years, inequality has rocketed in the US -- the American Dream only applies to those with enough money to lobby politicians for friendly bills on Capitol Hill. Filmmaker: Alex Gibney Producer: Blair Foster Produced by Jigsaw Productions & THE WHY Foundation Released: 2012 This film was originally released as part of THE WHY series WHY POVERTY?.
