Former U.S. Labor Secretary On Creating A ‘Win-Win’ Economy: Change The Rules (Video)
Robert Reich, U.S. Secretary of Labor during President Bill Clinton’s administration, puts forth a simple premise in his documentary “Inequality for All” (see the trailer after the jump) – our economy should be capitalism checked by the rules of a SENSIBLE democratic society. The above was clipped from his appearance on Moyers & Company (great PBS television) recently. Reich and host Bill Moyers discussed how CRAZY things have gotten… the insanity of economic, political, and day-to-day reality in America… and straight talk on the most direct route out of the madness.

PBS Frontline: Two American Families (Documentary)
Watch Two American Families on PBS. See more from FRONTLINE.
I love PBS! Engaging, thought-provoking viewing. I’ve been a fan of Bill Moyers for some time now, and he has reaffirmed my faith in him as a social issues commentator this episode of Frontline.
‘Since 1992, Bill Moyers has been following the story of two ordinary, hard-working families in Milwaukee — one black, one white — as they battle to keep from sliding into poverty. A remarkable portrait of perseverance, Two American Families raises unsettling questions about the changing nature of the U.S. economy and the fate of a declining middle class.’
