Former Comptroller General Sounds the Alarm on Debt
Series: Prime Time Radio
From: Prime Time Radio
Length: 00:59:53
"America's fiscal problems are strangling the U.S. economy," says David Walker, President and CEO of the Peter G. Peterson Foundation and former Comptroller General of the U.S. He joins host Mike Cuthbert to talk about the critical importance of this issue and why he thinks politicians aren't paying enough attention to it.
Then...Judith Neis is a woman who was transformed by the feminist movement of the 1960's and, in turn, contributed to the transformation of some of America's institutions - including the House of Representatives where she led the fight to do away with the separate "Ladies Gallery". Her memoir explores the personal and political repercussions of feminism and other movements of the '60's.
