Elizabeth Warren-- America's Social Contract

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hOyDR2b71ag

I thought this video was really relevant-- it shows the fundamental debate that's going on in our country about how extensive our social contract should be. The lady speaking in the video is Elizabeth Warren, a former Harvard professor who has become the main advocate for the middle class in our financial system. She was going to direct the new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau but couldn't get confirmed by the Republicans in Congress, so she is now running for Senate in Massachusetts.
