    We are a nation of debtors. How have our borrowing habits helped to build our economy and how have they weakened it? What does this mean for our future as a nation? William Apgar, Senior Scholar at Harvard University's Joint Center for Housing Studies and former Federal Housing Commissioner at the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, and Karl Case, Professor of Economics at Wellesley College, discuss the factors that led us into our current economic morass and explore ideas for charting a course forward. Moderated by Lisa Lynch, Dean and Professor of Economics at the Heller School for Social Policy and Management, Brandeis University.
