    Jim Clifton on Ambition, Good Jobs, and the State of the American Dream

    Gallup’s Jim Clifton joins Mitch Daniels to discuss what the data says about the American dream: an economy that has outperformed every prediction, a distinctive culture of ambition, and a jobs picture that may be far weaker than the unemployment rate suggests. They also discuss how AI will affect American workers, the collapse of trust in the media and institutions and why “free enterprise” polls better than “capitalism” among young people.
