Ken Rogoff of Harvard gives this video interview from Davos Switzerland at the World Economic Forum. Rogoff does not sound optimistic about the prospects for the global economy this year, and at times his predictions about things like unemployment are downright scary.

Depression maybe? How has the financial crisis affected you?
