producer jenny churchill and anthony randolph director of economic research for the reason foundation thanks for joining me guys. ok so we spoke about the fact that steve jobs passed away last night sadly but the westboro baptist church we should be very well aware of a little message for them but if you don't remember who the westboro westboro baptist church is here's a nice little reminder. to the every man to warn his neighbor this is taking down that's what love thy neighbor mean the purpose of his beginning is not to marry anybody it is to condemn the world like no they went up there and you're. all right so they're hateful people they go to protest at soldiers' funerals all the time because they think that god is punishing us for allowing homosexuality in the country and they announced via twitter that it was so the a.p. tweeted the apple co-founder steve jobs has died at fifty six and the one has for about just tweeted to them westboro will picket his funeral he had a huge platform god gave god no glory and talked sin but i just find it just a little weird that westboro was usi

weighing in on the housing crisis or is this still kind of a weak attempt to discuss it with me as anthony randolph so director of economic research for the reason anthony thanks so much for being here tonight. this is you love this stuff right you love talking about housing and how utterly. you know it so i'm really curious as to what you think of this of this new revamp because we're constantly hear you and i talking about how the past attempts hamp you know or this program as well how they have just been complete failure is maybe the obama administration really really screwed up on this one out of the other things that they screwed up with the economy so is this at least a good try. i think it's a really weak attempt from what you're hearing with the key thing is what are we trying to accomplish with this this point even the administration would tell you this is not an attempt to solve the whole housing crisis so anybody that is going to try and frame this plan as you know this is the white house trying to solve it they're not trying to do and it can't and won't what it basically is doing the th

housing program to help keep more americans in their homes but is that actually enough reasons anthony randolph was going to join us for that one and then julian assange has announced that wiki leaks is shutting down its website for now to fight the financial blockade that companies like these a master card and pay pal have put up against the whistle blowing organization so if the money doesn't start flowing again could it be the end of wiki leaks and one of the dangers here for the freedom of speech then the obama administration reportedly debated launching a cyber offensive in libya before they actually decide to go with cruise missiles and the drone strikes so how much closer does that make us to having cyber war become a concert reality where you have all that and more including it as of happy hour but first let's take a look what the mainstream media has decided to miss. right so the mainstream media which so do have fully reported on the arab spring while revolutions are breaking out in tunisia and egypt is back on the revolution that wagon well of course either ignoring or mocking the oc

but since the banks got a bailout and the american people don't want to discuss this it means anthony randolph the director of economic research for the reason foundation i think thanks so much for being here tonight for starters i mean is it kind of an when he started saying that our recovery just might be faltering i think that most people really felt like it hasn't been a recovery for a long time and this is actually nothing new from the fed but actually they completely changed their tune in jamie where they were saying the economy's praises because the all knowing fed was saying we're going to have great growth in two thousand and eleven and about the summer they begin to change their stories the last couple of times the federal market committee issued a statement they've been very very dour and they're just getting more and more down on the economy so it's it's nothing new and it's sort of a note about it so we should just stop treating them as you know going on over here is not any more i would be in favor of you know the united states treating the federal reserve that way. for a little
