He said the administration’s energy-economic strategy would be tough and comprehensive and hinted at tax cuts and more aid for the unemployed. The plan is to be announced January 20. Greenspan warned that economic recovery would take months and unemployment could rise, with the jobless rate around 7.1 percent and not likely to fall this year.
