  • Summary

  • Inflation has eased, but many Americans aren’t feeling the relief. Their concern is front and center this election, where the economy remains the pivotal issue for voters. As the Federal Reserve cuts rates this week, we delve into competing views on the root causes of recent price surges, the Fed's response to those surges, and the effects of demand-side vs. supply-side stimulus on the American economy. Joining us for a lively conversation are Kitty Richards, Senior Fellow at Groundwork Collaborative and Former Treasury Official, and Jason Furman, Aetna Professor of the Practice of Economic Policy at Harvard University.

Profile Image for K Bell

Jason is very snarky and could not stand listening to him. He would not admit that the Fed needed to reduce the interest rate.

He talked down both of the other panelists constantly. So agree with John that there needs to be a humbling from Economist. They need to continue to grow and learn from what is currently happening not based on old economist.
