Economist: "We Have A Problem In This Country"

PITTSBURGH (NewsRadio 1020 KDKA) — KDKA's Chris Moore was joined by economist and author of "Obama's Economy: Recovery For The Few," Dr. Jack Rasmus, to discuss economic growth problems.

Rasmus believes the government is faking economic growth by falsifying data information. He also feels the economy is slow due to the government's lack of investing in the right things.

"We have a problem in this country and the problem is that we're not investing enough in goods and services in this country to create jobs," said Rasmus.

Aside from government investments, Rasmus focused on the economic roller coaster America has become.

"We're bouncing along the bottom, barely keeping our head above water economically, this is not truly a real recovery," said Rasmus.

Listen to the full show for more information about America's economic growth issues.

The Chris Moore show airs every Sunday from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. on NewsRadio 1020 KDKA.
