We all know that the economy is screwed right now. There’s no way to exist in this country and be unaware of that fact. But do any of us really understand why? I know I didn’t until I watched this video, in which former Labor Secretary Robert Reich simplified the hell out of it. It’s definitely worth watching – now, when the topic of the economy comes up, I can talk semi-intelligently about what’s going on (mehhhh just barely, but still).
