'We may have to sacrifice just two more jobs to
get millions back for Americans'
President Barack Obama "is being failed by his economic
team" and should replace Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner
and White House economic policy director Larry Summers, says
US House Rep. Peter DeFazio.
The prominent member of the Congressional Progressive Caucus
told MSNBC's The Ed Show that he and other House members are
growing increasingly frustrated by a White House economic policy
that focuses on maintaining the financial stability of Wall
Street firms while largely overlooking Main Street concerns.
"I think there is a growing consensus in the [Democratic]
caucus [that] we need a new economic team that cares more about
jobs, Main Street and the American people than it does about
Wall Street and huge bonuses," DeFazio (D-OR) told host
Ed Schultz.
DeFazio suggested that the government "reclaim the unspent
funds ... reclaim some of the funds that are being paid back,
which will not be paid back in full, and we use it to put people
back to work rebuilding America's infrastructure.
