The former Labor Secretary and actual Clinton Administration liberal says the stimulus package just won’t cut it. Many people have spent beyond their means and better income distribution is the only way to prevent a real long-term dip.
He’s right, of course, but since Clinton himself really didn’t do anything to accomplish this, and Dems caved on extending unemployment bennies in the stimulus package, this just isn’t a high Democratic priority.
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
