you listened to gordon. what are your thoughts. >> well, it is very interesting when you talk about economic growth. two-thirds of our gdp is generated by spending. one of the very interesting things about these middle class tax credits is what they do is they put money right in the pockets of the middle class. one thing. when the middle class gets a windfall or $3,000 windfall for child care when they get that windfall they spend it. that's money that circulates right back into the economy. that's really what we need to see to grow the economy more consumer spending. there is some logic by saying middle class tax breaks can help the economy because that's money that would circulate right back in. >> he's not convinced. i guess we've got a chart that indicates kind of the wealthy income gap. i don't know which one it is. he doesn't quite believe in that. >> there are lots of arguments with the wealth gap. nobody says that the wealth cap doesn't exist. just how acute is it. by some measurements in is the 79 t

similarly gordon argues social justice issues drove back to this into antiwar movements shaping theirfeminist agendas and priorities. but she also notes that the largely separate wide african-american, american indian asian-american chicago and working-class feminist groups or organizations that develop create distinct agendas and strategies even as they forge crucial alliances. astrid henry makes clear the central role of women of color in the emergence of a third wave wave. the heightened sensitivity to rape -- race and ethnicity to her generation among feminists and the demographic and technological changes that increase the possibility of truly multiracial and global organizing. but she also notes that a lack of historical perspective and the continued investment of class and white privilege which has certainly not gone away lead to continued complex even within that movement and gives examples like the wok or the advocacy of leaning in that echo problems of the past. i do want to challenge one argument in the book and not surprisingly it's from the chapter on women's liberation w

at the same time i agree with gordon's claim that the generative possibilities created by the distinctfeminist campaigns by african-american, latina chick and asian-american feminist. she suggests these strengthened rather than weaken the movement and i would just like to argue that the same could be said with the ideological feminist groups. indeed as a scholar i recognized the efficacy of multiple movements and tagging the same issue from diverse perspectives and strategies. nonetheless as an activist i still side with collective multiracial and cross class social justice efforts and i still have never joined the national organization for women which doesn't mean they don't do some of this work. it's just that my roots and community-based multiracial cross class organizing has always made me feel like i just can't go there. or maybe i just hold resentments for -- it may just be personality. this is a small caveat. a book that analyzes issues so dear to my heart this is my only substandard disagreement and of course it's generative as disagreements are. by offering nuanced narratives

lori: how, gordon, does this global meltdown, as he's discussing, effect the economy in china?iously, that's just one cog in a multi-cogged wheel for them and their growth. >> well, china's been racking up these enormous trade surpluses, but they do need our market. they've become export dependent again. china right now is buying much less in the way of oil, iron ore, copper, tin, magnesium, it's just overbought, so, therefore, they're not going to buy as they've done in the past. lori: and we've been following the bottom of these materials falling out. gentlemen, thank you so much. we have about 54 minutes to the closing bell. >>> well, the world's biggest business and world leaders gathering in davos, switzerland this week. we just heard that the ceos think the u.s. economy is the best positioned for growth. that's also where liz claman is right now. liz, tell us what the latest buzz is this year and your all-star lineup you'll be bringing to us on the show. liz: well, here we are, lori, right on the promenade in davos. in the last hour charlie gasparino said that some of fox

gordon, pleasure to see you. president promised he would act as a result of this hack against north korea. you believe these sanctions are ineffective. >> they are certainly ineffective. we know what sanctions look like. those are the sanctions bush placed in 2005. not one or two entities but the whole country. those worked. these are supposed to be a shot across the bow to get north korea to cease and desist. all north korean activists who are going to put these divesdz dvds into balloons and north korea is livid about that. >> why the charade? >> i think there are a couple of things. the united states is a wired society and north korea is not. people are worried about a cycle of retaliation. we would be more vulnerable than north koreans. the idea is maybe through leaning on china we can lean on north korea. there are all sorts of calculations, but i don't think it's going to work though. >> is the administration being consistency here? we've got 50 years of sanctions against north korea. we've just heard the p

similarly gordon argues social justice issues drove back to this into antiwar movements shaping theirfeminist agendas and priorities. but she also notes that the largely separate wide african-american, american indian asian-american chicago and working-class feminist groups or organizations that develop create distinct agendas and strategies even as they forge crucial alliances. astrid henry makes clear the central role of women of color in the emergence of a third wave wave. the heightened sensitivity to rape -- race and ethnicity to her generation among feminists and the demographic and technological changes that increase the possibility of truly multiracial and global organizing. but she also notes that a lack of historical perspective and the continued investment of class and white privilege which has certainly not gone away lead to continued complex even within that movement and gives examples like the wok or the advocacy of leaning in that echo problems of the past. i do want to challenge one argument in the book and not surprisingly it's from the chapter on women's liberation w
