Economic Illiteracy of Trump and Harris

Hosted By

Graham H. Walker, Ph.D.

Show Notes

With two aspiring leaders both saying they want to make things better for middle class and lower-income Americans, it’s pretty discouraging to see them advance economic policies that would actually make everybody worse off.
