let me just pick up with a story of senator conrad was telling it. as you can see back in january 2009, the very month the president put his hand on the bible and was sworn in, the economy was in total free-fall. negative 7% gdp. losing 840,000 jobs every month. so the bottom was falling out of the economy and what you see is, as a result of the actions taken by the president and the congress at the time in passing the recovery act, and also taken by other players in the economy, we began to stop the free-fall, turn the corner, the reality is that since march of 2010 we've seen over 3 1/2 million private sector jobs created, the most recent good news being 257,000 private sector jobs added last month. so what is the president's budget do about this? it says we've got to be very careful not to mess up a very fragile recovery. and that's why he calls for immediate additional investments in the economy. we've got to get the payroll tax cut passed. we've got to extend unemployment insurance for millions of americans who are out of work through no fault o

i hope chairman conrad feels better and value his leadership in the committee as i note you do. good morning chairman bernanke, i thank you for joining us today, i'm eager to hear your thoughts about our financial situation. the congressional budget office confirms that the deficit will top $1 for the fourth consecutive year. we have accumulated almost $5 trillion in gross debt during which time the total on number of americans actually working has decreased by 1.2 million people. we have fewer people working today than we did 11 years ago. actual working americans is down. that goes across administrations in both parties the deficits we face in the coming decades are more relentless. the federal spending has increase e e e ed 53%, the goves getting bigger and the middle class is getting smaller. the concern i'm wrestling with is even our financial experpetrates are often very wrong as to the dangerer facing the american people and our economy. yet, some in washington and wall street tell us, we should delay reforms and not take action now only some vague date in the future. for

. >> thank you, senator conrad and johnson and thank you also for placing the conversation today in the context which you just did of the u.s. budget and our unsustainable situation. i think that is absolutely correct. and i'd like to frame my remarks very much to respond to that. let me make three points. first of all, the eurozone has already failed. the eurozone was established as a bastian of stability of prosperity on the world. it was established to build a large and more powerful economy. this has not worked. as you said a moment ago, fiscal mismanagement lies at the heart of their problems and i completely agree. they're trying to solve fiscal problems through, i think you might call it, monetary solutions. i might call it monetary innovations, a less positive word. i don't think this is going to end well. for them or for us. and with regard to your question about the new agreements, the latest rounds of agreements, senator conrad, i think this is very small steps in the right direction, but very small steps relative to the problems and relative to what they need to so i think w

i can remember pete conrad since you were talking about one great test pilot, another said to me, lord, those guys landed on the moon. what do i do for an encore. was there a similar feeling here at mission control? >> no, i think that they -- in fact it didn't take a second for the program office to ratchet up the complexity, objectives. once you land on the moon, what are you going to do to top it? i'm going to land next to a surveyor satellite on the moon that was put up there a couple of years ago. we're going to give them a verbal guidance update, they're going to enter into their computer which is going it alter their trajectory so they can land right there. and doggone, if they didn't do it! i think the entire apollo 12 mission had this -- i was sitting back, i was a expect tatar. so it was neat to watch other people do this thing that we had just done. and the mission started off with a real bang, literally. shortly after lift-off, the spacecraft was hit by a couple bolts of lightning and the navigation system, the platform had started tumbling, the electrical system had droppe
