This is the full 10-12-09 episode of the Labor Express Radio program.
On this week’s program we look at claims by many mainstream news sources and conservative economists who claim the recession is over. Economist Dr. Jack Rasmus argues that not only is the crisis far from over, but the worst of it maybe still coming. We also discuss structural changes in the U.S. economy over the past three decades that have ensured, even if there is an economic recovery, working class Americans will continue to see their living standards decline.
Also on this program, an update on the SK Hand Tools strike on Chicago’s Southside by members of Teamsters Local 743.
