Many hardworking Americans are barely keeping their heads above water financially. About two-thirds live from one paycheck to the next, and most worry constantly about money. Teachers, childcare workers, and others who shape young lives often earn so little that saving for emergencies or retirement
Big problems don’t always bring people closer—sometimes they pull them apart. Whether it’s a flood, a disease, an economic crash, or a war, each crisis tests how well a group can work as a team.
