American Jobs Alliance - 02/06/12

Guests: Ralph Gomory, Melinda O'Keefe

Ralph Gomory former head of science and research for IBM and author of Global trade and Conflicting National Interests discusses the fallacies of so-called "free trade" as practiced today, why R&D is intrinsically tied to manufacturing, how corporations have traditionally based their decisions on more than the maximization of profits, why "education" is not a panacea for the problems facing working Americans, and why we need new policies to better align the goals of US corporations with the needs of the American people.  Dr. Gomory is a Research Professor at New York University Stern School of Business.
