It is slowing. More than 400,000 people have lost their jobs since December, and the rate of new job creation has fallen sharply. Some economists have noted that companies seem to be on a "hiring strike." Americans are worried about the security of their current job, and they're worried that they, their kids and their neighbors may not find good jobs and new opportunities in the future. To make matters worse, gas is over $4 a gallon and the price of oil has almost doubled in the last year. The cost of everything from energy to food is rising." </p> <p>LABEL: JM CO 7-7 (SD#24) GIDT-ClipB</p> <p>To download a high res version of this clip, VISIT: <a href="http://issuealliance.box.net/shared/s3ikofo4c0">issuealliance.box.net</a> <br />To download the full campaign event, VISIT: <a href="http://issuealliance.box.net/shared/hdbm4ntw0w">issuealliance.box.net</a> </p> </div> <a href="/blog/45509-john-mccain-town-hall-meeting-07-07-08">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/44725-101-east-asia-s-baby-crisis-03-july-08-part-1 2008-07-07T08:42:39Z aljazeera <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/2qzsi-Bgliw&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/2qzsi-Bgliw&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/44725-101-east-asia-s-baby-crisis-03-july-08-part-1"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/51159" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>Across Asia, birth rates are in crisis -- with populations not replacing themselves, pressuring economies, military strengths, and the elderly.</p> </div> <a href="/blog/44725-101-east-asia-s-baby-crisis-03-july-08-part-1">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/44724-101-east-asia-s-baby-crisis-03-july-08-part-2 2008-07-07T08:42:39Z aljazeera <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/5sGhaoAOfGQ&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/5sGhaoAOfGQ&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/44724-101-east-asia-s-baby-crisis-03-july-08-part-2"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/51158" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>Across Asia, birth rates are in crisis -- with populations not replacing themselves, pressuring economies, military strengths, and the elderly.</p> </div> <a href="/blog/44724-101-east-asia-s-baby-crisis-03-july-08-part-2">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/42119-david-denoon-china-s-challenges 2008-10-06T16:23:31Z Carnegie Council <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/zI4_AMbaX7k&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/zI4_AMbaX7k&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/42119-david-denoon-china-s-challenges"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/47524" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>China's biggest potential challenges would be a slowdown in the economy and increased tensions between the haves and the have-nots, says David Denoon.
