Welfare Conscience

Daniel talks with Jim Wallis, author of the "Soul of Politics". Wallis says both Republicans and Democrats are entrenched in old ways of thinking, particularly when it comes to the topic of welfare reform. Wallis says that both the left and the right have some good ideas when it comes to solving welfare woes, but he says real reform will only occur when both the public and private sector begins to take collective responsibility for the country's problems.
