Philip Bump on The Aftermath

Leonard Lopate at Large on WBAI Radio in New York

THE AFTERMATH by Philip Bump is an assessment of how the baby boom created modern America, and where power, wealth, and politics will shift as the boom ends. He questions... How much longer than we'd expected will Boomers control wealth? Will millennials get shortchanged for jobs and capital as Gen Z rises? What kind of pressure will Boomers exert on the health care system? How do generations and parties overlap? When will regional identity trump age or ethnic or racial identity? Who will the future GOP voter be, and how does that affect Democratic strategies? What does the Census get right, and terribly wrong? Join us Philip Bump examines these questions today on Leonard Lopate at Large.
