Coming up on today’s show, we have Greg Kaufmann from the Nation Magazine’s This Week In Poverty back on the show to discuss how bipartisan welfare reform has made life worse for the poor, especially women and children.

We also have Gaius Publius from AmericaBlog here to discuss how President Barack Obama still appears to want to cut the social safety net after the 2012 election.

We’ll also discuss Romney “harvesting” companies, how Paul Ryan doesn’t have time to explain his tax plan, Occupy Boston’s one year anniversary, the New England janitors union winning a better contract, and the Scott Brown/ Elizabeth Warren debate.
