Ilya Somin: We Shouldn't Allow Political Ignorance to Enable Bad Policy
Description
In an effort to win crucial votes in battleground states, both Kamala Harris and Donald Trump have put forward economic proposals that are not only performative but will end up being detrimental to the economy and to peoples' budgets. The cynical move is that they are hoping that the policies sound good enough that voters won't look at the actual effects these policies will have. It's bad politics, it's bad economics, and we need to hold our political candidates to a higher standard. Ilya Somin is a professor at George Mason University and joins the show.
