. ben bernanke served eight graers 2006 as chairman of the federal reserve. he's set. monetary policy during the worse of the great recession. he chronicled the economic recession in his new book, "the courage to act." he left the fed years ago and now a fellow at the brookings institute. listen to the trump administration, ala tax reform, their budget, economic future is based on economic growth and

3.2 economic growth, annual growth rate. is that achievable and sustainable >> first, we want to do whatever we can to increase growth. growth has not been enough. there are a lot of head winds. pretty slow growth in our labor force. slow growth in productivity. so in order to get growth up we have to move a lot. >> is it achievable and sustainable. >> not unless we get lucky. we want to do what we can to improve the pace of growth. >> you write that donald trump shocked the world, those are your words, by defeating hillary clinton with his assessment of the u.s. economy. >> in some ways it was odd in many ways the u.s. economy is doing pretty well. we created 16 million jobs since 2009. unemployment rate was 10% down to 4.5%. housing market is coming back. lots of things are po

yet mr. trump won the election about talking about 42% unemployment and things like that. so it wasn't accurate. not 42% unemployment. he was right that there are some people who are being left behind. >> you write about that. you talk about conhe is kwents shall negative trends in the united states. lower productivity but creationing income and wealth equality and specifically the employment of men in this country. >> right. so, for example, as you say inequality. since the last 30, 35 years the income distribution has been spreading out. more people at the top. fewer people in the middle. more at the bottom. you mentioned participation which maengs thentioned you gotf young men, in the past they would have been working at a regular job but about 12% of those men are not working or even looking for work. those kinds of trends which are long standing, not recent have left behind a lot of people and that's the kind of concern that

donald trump tapped into. >> you write this too, this ideological influence and sometimes contradictory and just released his tax reform plan are you encouraged by what you see? >> ideological influences is a complicated political situation because he's got on one hand traditional republicans who are anti-deficit pro free trade for example then you have populists who are against free trade. he has these different trains of thought going on. >> your encouraged by what you see >> pretty early. write in my book that i thought that the markets got excited after the election, expecting rapid changes in fiscal policy, regulation and so on. i wrote in my book because of these different political influences and the fact that even within the republican party there's a lot of disagreement i argued it would take a long time for this stuff to be put in place. it's still early. >> in terms of regulation we did

away with glass stegle. >> it's become kind of a symbol of the financial crisis but i don't think it had much to do with the crisis because you had regular commercial banks getting in trouble making bad loans and commercial banks getting in trouble with the markets. >> what's the best thing to do to deal with income in equality. >> economic growth is important. it doesn't lift all boats equally. what we're missing is more upward mobility. if you were born in the bottom quarter of the income distribution, lower class working person or single parent family those kinds of problems, it's much harder for you to get up to the professional upper levels of our society. so what we need is

of things including pre-k intervention, better schooling, apprenticeships, stronger college programs, a whole variety of things to get people trained give them a chance to move up. >> we talked when your book first came out. i liked this after ward. i think it explains so much. one of the things you talk about too, trump, the president has promised to bring back manufacturing and mining jobs to make america great. is that realistic to bring back those jobs? >> no, it's not realistic because coal mining there's a lot of reasons why coal mining is declining because cheap natural gas, many other things going on. so, it's better instead of trying to go back to the past and reproduce 1960s assembly lines much better to go to the industries of the future, services, technology, finance, a whole range of things that we do well. >> how that change is really what's upsetting the electorate this change how this economy has to change. >> people miss what they had
