WHYS 60: Fiscal cliff and Assam tea workers burn boss to death

We discuss the "fiscal cliff" and tea workers in NE India burning their boss to death.

Are you afraid of the so-called fiscal cliff? The US faces a deadline to agree new legislation that could apparently make or break the global economic recovery. Are you worried or you do think talk of a fiscal cliff is exaggerated? We also speak to people in Assam, north-east India, about tea workers who have burned their boss to death.
