    What's Ahead for the Economy?
    As current events show us, there is no topic more urgent today than the fate of the global economy. With experience in business, media, and government, there is no expert more knowledgeable to explain what it all means than James Glassman.

    Glassman makes a sober, realistic assessment of the current economic situation, but his outlook is generally upbeat. While his experience in government tells him that governmental intervention has a more limited positive affect than most expect, his faith in American entrepreneurship encourages a belief that a recovery may come sooner than the pundits are predicting. Glassman partakes in an engaging question and answer session and answers your questions on:

    • How long the recession will last and how deep it will affect our long-term prospects
    • How government action like the stimulus package, tax cuts or increases and measures to shore up financial institutions can help turn the economy around
    • What are the best business and investment strategies to weather the storm
