The U.S. Department of Labor reports 20.5 million jobs lost in April. Associate Professor of Economics Robert Murphy discussed the latest report as a guest on WGBH "Morning Edition."  Professor Murphy also commented on the reported 50 percent decrease in Massachusetts tax revenues from one year ago, and the difficult decisions states, cities, and towns could face in the months ahead.
