America's Economy and the Road Ahead

Robert Reich argues that Obama's stimulus package will not catalyze real recovery because it fails to address 40 years of increasing income inequality. His retrospective diagnosis for the recession's cause is simple: too much national income went to the rich, which induced the federal government and the middle class to subsist on credit, creating a bubble that inevitably burst.
