L. Randall Wray — L. Randall Wray interviewed by Ian Masters on KPFK FM-90.7 - Los Angeles

Economist Randall Wray joins us for a macro-economic analysis of adverse economic trends at home and abroad amid dire predictions of a double-dip recession in the U.S. and defaults in Europe. We will try to connect the dots to see if we are indeed at a Smoot-Hawley moment where the Congress, instead of reversing economic decline, has accelerated it.

The national debt is growing. Lawmakers and experts are asking the question — what do we do about the biggest expenses of our government; Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security and defense spending? 63 percent of the 2010 federal budget went to these programs. Do we have to start making sacrifices?

L. Randall Wray is an economics professor at University of Missouri–Kansas City. He believes the deficit concerns are hysteria, and massive cuts will only worsen the problem. His focus is on growing the economy.
