i mean, we're describing a massi erosion, but the question is could we see those democratic political institutions really cease to function effectively in the future if we have a society that continues to tilt so heavily towards winner-take-all. and that's why we wrote the book because, you know, walter lippmann back in the early 20th century said the challenge for democratic reform is that democracy has to lift itself up by its own bootstraps. and we're -- we are deep believers in the ability of american democracy to reform itself, of the strength of our democratic institutions. but th're in very serious disrepair right now. and we've seen in recent political fights a sort of paralysis and a broad loss of faith in government. and that sort of secession of the wealthy from our economic life that we've already started to see could be matched by a secession of them from our political life and a sort of loss of that broad democracy that was characteristic of mid-20th century. that's the greatest fear that we have. >> would you say we still have a middle-class country? >> that's -- >> wow

joining us now, bob massi is here with more. reading the story, i think it's outlandish.>> happens all over the country because we sign documents and nobody ever explains to us that basically says if the lender thinks their collaterals in any way abandoned or vacated, they have the right to protect it. one of the things they can do is change the locks. it's ridiculous. when homeowners in america are late on payments, they know where to call. whenever there is a problem, they know where to send the letters. this guy's locks were changed. nobody called him and said, mr. whitaker, have you been in this property? if they would have called him, he'd have said no, this is a rental property, i'm renovating it. i could show you the invoices from contractors. it's outrageous, but it's happening all over the country because a subjective decision is made, brian, by a lender to vacate -- that a homeowner abandoned the property. pick up the damn telephone and ask them. if you know where to call them when they're late on payments, call them to find out if they vacated the premises. >>

as massie mentioned, in 2010, we expended significant resources on advertising and promotion. one thing we can all say in the survey business is that our job has become a lot more difficult over the intervening years in getting the american public to participate which continues to be a challenge. host: here is another great photographs. cleveland state university employees at the census headquarters preparing forms for the census. a lot of people power and not a lot of computer power. guest: in the movies, there were women doing data entry. you could look at the occupation codes and they were just typing away. it was not all manual labor. guest: to add to that, we did use these punch cards. it is quite noteworthy that the first ones were available in august, 1940. it was quite timely. host: coming out of the depression, there's a lot of interesting photographs. here is one from a family having the census data collected outside of their home in a real car. were you able to capture some of that post-depression era in the types of places that people were living? guest: that was o
