Homeland Security Industrial Complex, James Risen's New Book

New York Times journalist James Risen appeared on PBS to discuss his new book, "Pay Any Price," which examines the financial costs of the War on Terror. Risen argues that the conflict has evolved into a "Homeland Security Industrial Complex," a multi-trillion dollar sector of the economy built on secrecy and greed. The book details how the search for justice after 9/11 transitioned into a permanent hunt for cash and power.
