Participation by the Democratic Left party led by Fotis Kouvelis is necessary to form a stable government. Kovelis says the harshest austerity measures such as the demand to cut the minimum wage would have to be revoked in a new platform for New Democracy, Pasok Socialist party, and the Democratic Left. The timetable for Greece to meet budget deficit targets would also need to be extended. This comes as the three parties negotiate terms for a new government led by Antonis Samaras.

Gregory Mankiw would like to see the Fed's Ben Bernanke and his colleagues and staff do the job they are doing and not see Congress intervene with fiscal stimulus or other intervention. The Fed and the ECB are led by a good team of economic risk managers and they should be allowed to take care of the economy as it enters 2008 through rate cuts and other moves to help restore growth and overcome the housing and mortgage crisis.See the link to December 6, 2007, BW for an interview with Martin Feldstein. Feldstein thinks a tax cut may be necessary in 2008 and takes a much more serious view of the current situation.

Janet Yellen Fed chairwoman, says many obstacles still exist for women in the workforce. Bringing more women into the workforce will increase the productive capacity of the American economy. The increasing participation of women in the workforce was factor in the growth and prosperity of America by the middle of the 20th century. In a speech sharing her personal narrative at Brown University, her alma mater, she described how other nations had passed the U.S. in women's participation in the workforce, and how it remains stalled at 75% for women either working or looking for work. Her speech was at a conference "125 Years of Women at Brown." The U.S. is now 17th among 22 developed nations in participation of women in workforce, mostly because of government and business policies that relate to paid maternity leave, affordable child care, and flexible work schedules.
