Manage episode 436276780 series 2502803

Jim Tankersley, who covers economic policy for The New York Times, evaluates both of their plans.
Guest: Jim Tankersley, an economic policy reporter for The New York Times.
Background reading:
- Analysis: Both candidates embrace expansions of government power to steer economic outcomes — but in vastly different areas.
- Analysis: Harris’s price-gouging ban plan does not appear to amount to government price controls. It also might not bring down grocery bills anytime soon.
