Auto industry, G-20, Department of the Treasury

Justin Fox wonders if Obama is going to stick to the tough stance he's taken on the US auto industry. David Brooks says it's political suicide, Justin Fox thinks it's possible.

To keep up with the London G-20 Summit, you can follow their website. VoxEU.org announced some time ago that they were working with the summit to provide economic commentary and debate. Drea at the Business Pundit gives us pointers on who to watch during the G-20 summit. It sounds like it's going to be very, very interesting to follow.

Obama has announced a couple of new big names to his staff of advisors--Levitt and Mankiw. What an interesting surprise! I've got to give it to Obama for choosing a diverse staff of highly intellectual and respected economists.
