The economy is always a key issue for 50-plus voters. But, this midterm election, older Americans want to know how the government is going to fix it. And they're not willing to accept mere sound bites.

Roberts talks with Republican and Democratic leaders and journalists from around the country. And she fields audience members' questions that you might have asked.
