As a guest on Bloomberg Radio’s “Bloomberg Surveillance,” Dartmouth’s David Blanchflower, the Bruce V. Rauner Professor of Economics, talks about why it is important for the Federal Reserve to focus on wage rate rather than unemployment rates.

“Wage pressure downward is bigger than we thought,” says Blanchflower.

Listen to the full interview, broadcast 4/21/14 on Bloomberg Radio.

We’re very clear that we need to drive our own research, our own teaching agenda. That has to be Dartmouth doing that. That can’t be the government telling us what to do, whether that’s a Republican White House or a Democratic White House.
