The Editors: "Of all the burd=ns weighing on the American middle class, one has grown immensely in recen= years: debt. Absent reform, it presents one of the gravest threats to the=prosperity of the typical family." <= href="http://link.mail.bloombergview.com/55086a4c3b35d051538c37cc2lmk7.=4xm/VVN8JEmOfN1NGUa_B61dc" style="text-decoration:none;color:#00b9e7;lin=-height:1.6em">Read more...

The Editors: "The U.S. health=care system has been squeezing the country's middle class for years. The p=ssage of the Affordable Care Act has relieved some of the pressure, but th=re's much more to do." The Editors: "America's middl=-class workers have plenty to worry about -- but for many, the biggest anx=ety is what happens when they are workers no longer. Many will reach retir=ment only to find they have saved too little to live comfortably." =span class="topic-read-more" style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;text=decoration:none;color:#00b9e7;font-weight:normal;font-size:17px;line-heigh=:1.6em;text-transform:none">Read more...

Declassified

Josh Rogin and Eli Lake: "The=U.S. government was informed months ago that an international monitoring b=dy found traces of chemical weapons that President Bashar al-Assad had pro=ised to turn over, including sarin gas -- a clear violation of the deal he=struck with President Obama after crossing the administration’s 'r=d line' two years ago." Read more...

Lake: Jeb Bush has not said w=ether he would send U.S. ground troops to Iraq. "There is no doubt that co=ing out for more troops in Iraq would bring political risk. Americans thes= days are tired of trying to rebuild Iraq and its army. But the same could=be said in 2007." Rea= more...

Economics

Noah Smith: There are a lot o= people who are highly critical of behavioral economics. "Roughly, their c=iticisms fall into two categories, one of which is a good criticism and on= of which is way overblown." Read more...

Money

Jonathan Bernstein: "Should A=drew Jackson be kicked off the $20 bill and replaced by Harriet Tubman? ..= Tubman is as reasonable a replacement as any. And choosing a woman is a g=od impulse, as Barack Obama hinted at recently. The key is to keep the tra=ition of honoring greatness in public affairs." Read more...

European Economy

Stephen Mihm: Many of the eul=gies of Baron Alexandre Lamfalussy described him as the "father of the eur=," but they failed to note one of his central achievements. "Even as he pl=yed a vital role in the creation of the monetary union, Lamfalussy underst=od the fatal flaw at its heart: the absence of fiscal and political union =o hold it together." =ead more...

Mark Gilbert: "The cost of th= stalemate between Greece and its creditors became apparent today with the=release of Europe's latest gross domestic product figures. Even as its eur=-zone peers are enjoying a burst of growth, the Greek economy is slumping =ack into recession. Even more worrying for the nation is evidence that cap=tal is fleeing at an accelerating rate." Read more...

Ukraine Crisis

Leonid Bershidsky: "With Gree=e missing one deadline after another to reach agreement with its creditors= it's easy to forget that a day of reckoning is also nearing for Ukraine. =he government is supposed to reach a debt restructuring deal with private =ondholders by June, but is no closer than when talks began in mid-March." =/span>Read more...
