Don't Kill Growth And Jobs In The Name Of Deficit Reduction
More than 300 economists, policy experts and civic leaders have signed a statement warning political leaders of “a grave danger” that the still-fragile economic recovery will be undercut by austerity economics of the kind being pushed by conservative politicians and by the White House deficit commission.Read the statement and more at dontkilljobs.org.
