Our lead story: On Wednesday an unexpected twist in the $19 billion Facebook/WhatsApp deal came to light. Facebook, which acquired WhatsApp in February, has asked European Union antitrust regulators to examine the deal. The social networking giant is doing this in order to avoid other anti-trust reviews by individual countries. Erin takes a look.
Then Erin sits down with Dr. Mark Thoma, a professor of economics at the University of Oregon and a blogger of the Economist's View. They discuss inequality, federal reserve policy, and interest rate hikes. Afterward, Edward Harrison interviews investor Paul Brodsky about tail risks, the fear of deflation, and inflation in the Eurozone. Check it out.
In today's Big Deal, Edward Harrison and Erin are talking about "subprime business lending." Is this just a fancy name loan sharking on Wall Street? Edward gives his take.

Professor James Galbraith teaches Economics at the University of Texas and is the son of John Galbraith, author the Great Crash of 1929, a must-read for economic historians. When BOOM BUST spoke to him in November, our interview sparked huge interest, but also questions about national solvency and sovereign default.
When and how exactly does national solvency become an issue? This video covers that ground and Dr. Galbraith also speaks to his book "The Predator State" which tackles the theme of corporatism impeding government from executing its public purpose.
Also, Erin Ade and Edward Harrison team up to discuss government waste -- with some stunning examples of waste that has cost taxpayers tens of billions of dollars.
