Description
Number 740 Park Avenue is home to several New York billionaires. Just ten minutes north, in the South Bronx, is another Park Avenue, where more than half the population rely on government food stamps to survive. According to the American dream, any Bronx Park Avenue resident can end up living at 740 with enough willpower and hard work. But is that dream still attainable? In this program, director Alex Gibney (Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room) argues that the gap between rich and poor in the U.S. has widened significantly and will continue to do so as the rich use their wealth to fund political campaigns and lobby groups that rig the system in their favor.
