How can we ever solve this country's economic problems when the economists that know the most are not listened to. Thom Hartmann and Les Leopold tell what is holding us back, but who will it be that actually becomes our Teddy Roosevelt or FDR that does what needs to be done to bring us back from the brink?

I don't think he's a Teddy or a FDR. He's too much in bed with Wall Street and the COC.

Listening to this discussion between Thom Hartmann and Les Leopold was a primer on everyhting that ails this country financially. All the detractors to a healthy economy are in place right now. NAFTA and CAFTA have totally gutted the tariff system that used to finance the cost of government spending, the tax rate on the super rich and corporations being under 50% as Thom and Les pointed out has always been a recipe for disaster in this country spurring the speculative finances corporations are now displaying, and the fact that these corporations are refusing to re-invest in their own companies in the US keeps the unemployment rates at untenable levels for any possibility of a healthy economy. One thing that politicians always prove is that none of them are students of history or economics or the history of the economy. How can these morons make decisions impacting our financial futures, when they don't even know what mistakes not to repeat?

Pretty much. Or so controlled by the corporate influences that they have just handed over their authority. Pathetic.
