Season 2014 Episode 500 | 53m 26s

Tonight on the program, we examine a nonpartisan report on the nation's minimum wage, which says raising it would make a dent in poverty but could lead to fewer jobs. Also: Deadly protests and turmoil in Venezuela, thousands wait for visas in Afghanistan, a new report on the connection between fracking and health problems and nations inflamed by Arab Spring yield different fates.

Aired: 02/18/14 | Expires: 12/31/69
