Sara Meyer, Gary Eichten, Judith Brown, Chris Farrell, Dale Jorgenson

Minnesota Public Radio's Chris Farrell is in the studio to speak some plain English on the subject. Other guests are Professor Dale Jorgenson of Harvard University, who was a member of the Commission which concluded that the CPI overstates inflation, and Judith Brown, financial advisor who has a long affiliation with the AARP. Listeners call in with questions.
