To read: everything you need to know about the Bowe Bergdahl issue is in Michael Hastings his June 2012 Rolling Stone article: America’s Last Prisoner of War. It’s long – ten pages – but an easy read. IMHO Obama and Kerry came down on the right side of this one. Others, such as a former SOS and potential POTUS candidate and a half-term governor and losing VP candidate, disagree.
To watch: Elizabeth Warren and Thomas Piketty It’s long – almost forty-eight minutes. A good introduction as to why income and wealth inequality matters and why it needs to be corrected. And on student loan debt Warren completely rocks.
