"Balance of Power: Late Edition" focuses on the intersection of politics and global business. On today's show, Betsey Stevenson, economist and professor at the University of Michigan's Ford School of Public Policy, says persistent inflation is eroding the purchasing power of Americans who have remained in the same jobs.

He also discusses his new initiative promoting a federal scholarship tax credit.
