Lesson Three


Lesson Three

Who Wins, Who Loses?

This workshop helps participants examine income growth during two time periods in U.S. history, via a human bar graph activity. They are introduced to the term “trickle-down economics� and they review charts showing who has benefited from recent tax policy. Participants discuss the implications of tax cuts on the state budget, and subsequently education funding.
