Projections of Living Wages

Paper Summary:

The paper explains how an overall increase in the number of African-American and Hispanic persons living within the United States has created an increased focus on the concept of a population shift, specifically in terms of demographic composition. This paper asks whether minorities can expect to make a basic living wage (e.g. live above the poverty line) by the year 2070.

From the Paper:

"The United States has traditionally been dominated in terms of political and economic power by Caucasians, an outcome that is in part a holdover from the European populations who initially established the country as well as in part the result of various social, cultural, and religious influences that have helped Caucasians maintain their status."
