  9. Today's Buzz: Will cost kill immigration reform?

    The Heritage Foundation, the influential conservative think tank now headed by former U.S. Sen. Jim DeMint, released a report this week that estimated providing legal status to the 11 million undocumented immigrants in the United States would cost taxpayers $6.3 trillion over the next 50 years, or $124 billion a year. The number comes from the think tank’s estimate of the difference between benefits that legalized immigrants would claim and taxes that they would pay. A bipartisan Senate bill headed for hearings this week includes legal status for the 11 million. Will it be doomed by the Heritage estimate? Or will other estimates, including some from other conservative groups, that project a cost savings from immigration reform offset any negative impact from the Heritage report? Will enough Republican who want more support from Hispanics join with Democrats to pass immigration reform? Do you believe the Heritage numbers? Talk about it!

  12. Europe has no exit

    WASHINGTON -- For most Americans, Europe is out of sight and out of mind. We figure that the worst of its debt crisis has passed. Italy has a new government. To mute social unrest, some countries are slightly relaxing austerity policies. The European Central Bank (ECB) has stabilized the bond market for weak debtor countries. Despite problems, Europe is muddling through.
