Join the Discussion: Economy

In the midst of a global financial crisis and rising unemployment, President-elect Obama has assembled a team of seasoned economic experts with records of innovation to get our country back on track.

The task ahead for the team is daunting. In order to craft solutions to these complex problems, they'll have to reach out past Washington and Wall Street for answers.

We asked Director of the Council of Economic Advisors Christina Romer to kick off the conversation about the economic pressures that Americans are facing every day in their lives.
