Can the Presidential Candidates’ Plans Deliver Economic Prosperity?
The Howard H. Baker Jr. School of Public Policy and Public Affairs and the Haslam College of Business at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, welcomed a pair of national pundits – Michael Strain, director of Economic Policy Studies at the American Enterprise Institute and Matthew Yglesias, independent columnist — to discuss economics and the 2024 Presidential Election. Haslam’s Professor of Practice, Monica Langley, moderated the debate.
Strain and Yglesias provided insights on Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump’s economic policy plans regarding inflation, industrial and trade, taxes, immigration, and the American dream.
