Melissa markets come back from session lows following disappointing jobs report. Employers adding 209,000 jobs last month, missing expectations and inching the unemrate up to 6. 2 . Lets bring in the panel. Liz macdonald mcdonald. And James Frischling and veronica daguerre. What do you think of this report . There is lot of work we still need to do. There are still a lot of people having parttime jobs. Melissa right. So many people are underemployed and those numbers really arent improving that much and i think thats a real issue. That is what the fed is looking at. If you talk to some americans theyre under employed and not in positions they want to be in. This is not the immaculate recovery that Vice President biden talked about 2010 in the summer. Were still not seeing gdp growth annualized above 2. 2 . We havent seen that in years, right, melissa .

Way, we have some Common Ground here. And then here we are today. And what is really troublesome is that not only have we not become sosion hasnything and and so meanspirited, even at this moment even if the Republican Leadership cannot say it our way it would be nice everyone every once in a while to hear the Republican Leaders condemn these angry mobs children coming are scaredborder who out of their minds, many of them fleeing for their lives. It would be nice to hear some condemnation and to get this debate back onto a better footing. Carolinague from north says that we should minimize the rhetoric and deal with reality. That is what we are trying to do. We are talking mostly about kids. Kids who are fleeing some of the most violent countries in the are scared out of their minds, many of the. Honduras has the highest murder in the any country world, more than afghanistan. In salvador, more people die each day and violence in the word during the war. And there is a correlation betwe
And economic welfare of your citizens. Let me say that with regard to education, if i can turn to that first, our country has always been very, very strict about improving the enrollment of children at schools. And weve always been at the list of countries doing most to that end. And we are at 100 percent enrollment of kids at school. Now, wherever children are in my country, they go to school. And official education is offered free up until the age of 16.

And i think its a fair point to say, without exaggeration, that when we take a look at the state of our budget, this is a quite considerable achievement.

All of that is fine and well. But we are looking
Great presentation. I was interested in cities like detroit. The merchant the managers come in desperate straits. Theyve gone way beyond what they could afford to do and unfortunately theyve got to come out of it. Can you hear . Okay, the key a guess for those cities and others that might fall into the teams type of situation is what is the next alternative. Will it be more cities having to go through similar restructuring , some of those might not build a get it done quickly. But potholes, having basic services, police force. How did you envision that taking place this cities in desperate straits . We know that although we put rented toward a good news, nasa goodness, optimistic ,com,com ma when the citys overall fare much more strongly coming out of the Great Recession. And the instances of bankruptcy are extremely rare amongst our municipalities. Although that obviously see if they can earn for those going through it and we fell for them, again, the vast majority of cities are in a
