While thousands of middle class Americans are fighting for their jobs, House Majority Leader Eric Cantor has sent Congress home. The Ed Show with Ed Schultz looks at the political fallout with the MEGA Panel of Robert Reich, Former U.S. Labor Secretary, UC Berkeley Professor, Karen Finney, MSNBC Political Analyst and Former DNC Communications Director and Leo W. Gerard, International President, United Steelworkers.
“The problem with what the President has had is he is trying to negotiate with people who aren’t interested in negotiating,” said Finney.
“He (the President) is doing the right thing. He is trying to save jobs. He also talking about investing in infrastructure,” said Gerard.
“If we actually invested in the infrastructure we need to invest in, we could have more economic growth,” said Reich.
