With politicians promising to create so-called "good jobs", we look at what government can and can't do in this area.  Also, rents in the Granite State keep rising, up fifteen percent in the last five years.  And New Hampshire joins a national lawsuit challenging the merger of two health insurance companies, Anthem and Cigna. 

GUESTS:

  • Jeff Feingold, editor of New Hampshire Business Review .
  • Steve Norton, executive director of the New Hampshire Center for Public Policy Studies.
