Our lead story: New home sales in the U.S. tanked in March, falling 13.3% year over year. But what's curious, is that even though the sales number are bad, prices of new homes are still rising! Erin takes a look. Our interview today is economist James Galbraith, an expert in macroeconomics and a critic of inequality. Erin sits down to talk to him about the importance of income inequality and his views on the hugely popular book Capital in the 21st Century by Thomas Piketty. Our Best of the Week includes Yanis Varoufakis, Marshall Auerback, Paul Brodsky, Steve Hanke, and Howard Lindzon. They cover the Greek bond sale, Eurozone politics, government intervention in the economy, currency boards, and the hullabaloo around tech bubbles. Take a listen. For our Accrued Interest, Erin and Edward Harrison tackle your comments and questions. Keep the questions coming!
