The Early Shift

There are signs and whispers that the plan to tax employee health insurance benefits is back on the table.  But is it a good idea for millions of workers? The leaders of the G-20 group will be meeting soon.  It's doubtful that they will aim to reform the global economy.  Their efforts will concentrate on jump-starting the global economy, so that it can return to it's pre-crisis state.  But some observers say, that the global economy's pre-crisis state of trade imbalances, is what led to the crisis we are in.  Maintaining the status quo  will only ensure that we will hit another crisis again. The deadline for the government auto industry task force to decide what to do is fast approaching (March 31)  What is in stock for G.M.?  And how will it impact the rest of the U.S. manufacturing sector?
