The Global Economy Is Teetering

Robert ReichDec 19, 2001

The Los Angeles Times


The White House is working with other nations to fight global terrorism. It also should be working with them to stave off a global economic meltdown.


There's no longer any doubt that we're in a recession. More than 400,000 jobs were lost last month, the biggest job loss in two decades. Meanwhile, national output is shrinking. Consumer spending is dropping. And consumer confidence is plummeting.

Will Terrorism Stall Globalization?

Robert ReichDec 19, 2001

The Big Split

Robert ReichDec 19, 2001

It would be bad enough if the Republicans' tax plans were merely extravagantly regressive, rewarding the rich and leaving a big budget hole for everyone else to fill. But they appear just when the income gap has grown wider than it has been in more than a century. It's a double whammy.
