The Economy with Diane Rehm
March 12th, 2013As first heard on WAMU on March 11, 2013
The Outlook for the US Economy
“Last week the Labor Department delivered the best jobs report in more than four years. The Dow Jones industrial average posted record highs. And corporate profits continued to soar. There’s good news to celebrate. But some economists and analysts say it’s too early to pop the cork on the champagne. Millions of Americans are still unemployed or underemployed. Even though the private sector added 236,000 jobs in February, the public sector dropped 10,000 positions in the same period.

A Salon with Firedoglake

“It is a pleasure to join Hedrick today and welcome readers to our online discussion about Who Stole The American Dream. As I was preparing for today’s salon, I could not help but wonder what Aristotle, with his vision for the balancing role of the middle class in society, would think of our current state of affairs. Please enjoy this chance to ask what is on your mind as we share the next two hours.”
