I saw this program on CNBC (not MSNBC) a few minutes ago. I haven't watched it completely, but I thought you guys might be interested in the discussion. I found the link on HULU. I probably should wait to see what conclusion they come too, but at least if I post it now, I can't be accused of being politically biased (jk Russ :) )
