America's Game of Chicken

Available for over a year

President Obama and Mitt Romney are playing a game of chicken with the American - and, indeed, the entire world - economy. Neither has said how they will steer away from the impending "fiscal cliff" - the $600 billion of tax rises and spending cuts due in January. Two giants of American economics discuss what happens next: Robert Reich, Secretary of Labor in the Clinton administration and Douglas Holtz-Eakin is the former economic advisor to John McCain. Plus: why is one of the world's biggest oil producers rationing gasoline? (Image: Mitt Romney and Barack Obama's pointed fingers, Credit: Getty Images)
