This Week’s Agenda: Greece, Europe, The Super Committee

The Takeaway

As Greece negotiates a new unity government, Europe watches closely for signs of a widening crisis. In the U.S. a deadline for members of a congressional “Super Committee” to reach an agreement approaches. Meanwhile, a new book by Bill Clinton comes out   this week, and it reportedly criticizes President Obama’s decision not to raise the debt ceiling in 2010 when the Democrats still controlled the House of Representatives. Callie Crossley, host of The Callie Crossley Show  on WGBH in Boston, and  Charlie Herman, economics and business editor for The Takeaway and WNYC, talk about the week ahead.
