Good morning, today on The Meter we discuss the recent unemployment figures now at 7.4% but the labor participation rate has remained flat since 2009. Is the economy growing or are the numbers misleading? Also, Bradley Manning was acquitted of the most serious charge of aiding the enemy, which is a capital offense, but found guilty of the lesser charge of violating the espionage act. What does this mean for the future of leaks of classified information. After terror threats the US has closed embassies from North Africa to Central Asia. Is this the appropriate action in the wake of Benghazi last year? Please join the debate at 10:00 AM. Your input is essential.
